Naha and South Okinawa Private 7 Hour Tour with Local Guide

Awesome Tour of Okinawa with Aki

Our family was able to tour the island of Okinawa with a Aki, a terrific local guide. Aki gave us an opportunity to get an in-depth look at many points of cultural interest and sites of historic significance around Okinawa during pre-war, WWII, and post-war. His ability to communicate the Okinawan people’s struggle to overcome and persevere through severe events and conditions over their history gave us a deeper appreciation of the places we visited during the tour (e.g. Okinawa Peace Prefectural Memorial Museum). The scenic views from Shurijo Castle at sunset gave us some great photo ops. Aki was very knowledgeable about Okinawa culture and local customs which gave us a great perspective on Okinawa life.

Okinawa Hidden Gems: Private Night Food & Culture Tour

Super food/bar tour in Naha

Aki is a great guide who was able to tell us a lot about the eating habits of Okinawa. We ate dishes that we would never have ordered otherwise. Thank you very much, Aki!

Northern Okinawa Scenic & Hidden Gems Tour 1–8 Guests(4-8H)

Excellent experience, highly recommended

We had such a great day with our guide Nanami and our driver Yu. Namami was knowledgeable, kind and patient. She explained the history of the places we visited in a very engaging and interesting way. We were invited to tailor the tour to our wishes but asked Nanami to make recommendations and she gave us a very interesting day. The car was spotlessly clean and Yu was a calm, safe driver around the sometimes difficult Okinawan roads. And we had an excellent lunch (taking into account dietary requirements). We would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Okinawa.
