All Reviews for Top Okinawa Attractions

Exploring the ocean in a skeleton is a great activity. You should definitely try it at least once.

スケルトンで海の中を探索は、とても良いアクティビティーだと思います。一度は、やってみた方がいいです。

Thank you for the enjoyable time. The guide was fun, and the experience was amazing. It's a pity that we couldn't go to Heart Rock on Kouri Island because the bus was not available.

楽しい一時ありがとうございました。ガイドさんも楽しく童神最高でした。古宇利島でハートロックに車がバスなので行けなかったのが残念。本当にイッぺーニフェデービル

The weather forecast predicted clear skies, but there was a notice of event cancellation. I'm so disappointed since I was looking forward to it. By the time the cancellation notice came, it was difficult to book alternative popular tours. Even if I manage to book a tour, I can't feel completely at ease.

天気予報は晴予報なのにイベント中止連絡有り
楽しみにしてたのに残念。
中止連絡有った頃には代替の人気ツアー予約困難。ツアー予約出来たからと言って安心出来ないですねー。

Due to strong winds on the day, we were informed in advance about the change of location and went from Kabira Bay to Miyara River. They carefully taught us everything from paddling the canoe to detailed operating methods, and we even received photos, making it a wonderful experience! Thank you very much!

当日は強風のため場所の変更を予めご連絡頂き、川平湾から宮良川へ行きました。カヌーの漕ぎからから細かい操作方法まで丁寧に教えて頂き写真まで頂けたのでとても良い体験になりました！
ありがとうございました

I've been to Okinawa many times, but this time I joined a tour departing from the Prefectural Office since I was traveling alone!

To put it simply, it was a great deal and I was able to sightsee efficiently, which was really nice. Originally, it was an affordable tour, but thanks to GoTo, it became even cheaper, and I also received a 1,000 yen electronic coupon!

I participated on a Monday, and there were 21 people on the tour, with about one-third being solo travelers. At the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, I had two and a half hours of free time to see the whale sharks and manta rays while having lunch at a café, and then I watched the dolphin show at the Okichan Theater from 1:00 PM before returning to the bus... it was just right!

On the bus, the guide played the sanshin and sang, and occasionally posed quizzes, creating a warm and enjoyable atmosphere throughout the trip. Since we walked a lot, I appreciated being able to take a nap on the way back while island songs played.

Not only did we visit the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, but we also went to Kouri Island, the newly renovated Manzamo, and the Okashi Goten (Sweet Factory). As others mentioned, I felt that the free time at American Village was a bit long, so it might be better to unify the free time to 20 minutes for all places except the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium. Surprisingly, 20 minutes was enough to see everything!

何度も来ている沖縄県ですが、今回は一人旅だったので県庁前から出発のこちらのツアーに参加！

一言で言えば大変お得で効率良く観光でき本当に良かったです(^^)
元々お手頃ツアーですが、GoToの恩恵でさらに格安、さらに1,000円の電子クーポンも頂けました！

月曜日の参加でしたが21人のツアーで、1/3はお一人様の参加でした。
美ら海水族館も2時間半の自由時間でジンベエザメやナンヨウマンタを見ながらカフェで昼食も取れ、13:00〜のオキちゃん劇場でイルカショーを見てバスに戻って…と丁度良かったです♪

バス車内ではガイドさんが三線を弾きながら歌って下さったり、時折クイズを出して下さったり始終和やかな雰囲気で楽しく過ごせました。
たくさん歩いたので、帰りは島唄が流れ仮眠ができた点もありがたかったです。

美ら海水族館だけでなく、古宇里島や新しくなった万座毛、またお菓子御殿にも行けました。
他の方々もおっしゃっておりましたが、アメリカンビレッジは正直少し自由時間が長い気がしたので、美ら海水族館以外は全て20分の自由行動で統一しても良い気がします。
意外に20分でどこも十分に見れました！

As an aquarium, it was impressive and very beautiful. I want to go again. I've been to facilities in other prefectures, but I felt that Churaumi Aquarium was really good. If you go to Okinawa, I definitely think you should stop by.

水族館としては、迫力があり、とてもきれいでした。
また行きたいです。他県の施設も行ったことがありますが、美ら海水族館は、とても良いと感じました。沖縄に行ったなら、ぜひ立ち寄るといいと思います。

I was a bit anxious about participating alone, but everyone was kind and friendly. They took a lot of photos for me. I returned to Tokyo today, but I want to go again!

一人参加で不安もありましたけど、皆さん優しくてフレンドリーでした。写真も沢山撮ってくれました。今日東京に戻りましたけど、また行きたいです!

I participated in a half-day snorkeling tour. On the day of the tour, the wind was strong and the waves were somewhat rough, which made me quite seasick. (Most of the others seemed to be fine.) However, the staff were kind and attentive, which was helpful. During the snorkeling and introductory diving, we were divided into small groups with an instructor, which made me feel secure. I was able to see beautiful fish and coral reefs. Everyone seemed to enjoy the slide as well. They also took photos, which can be downloaded later. Overall, I thought it was a very good tour.

半日シュノーケリング参加しました。
当日は風が強くやや強い波だったため、かなり船酔いしました。
（ほとんどの方々は大丈夫そうでした）
でもスタッフの方々も親切て気を使って下さり助かりました。
シュノーケリングや体験ダイビングする際も、少人数のグループ分けで
インストラクターさんが付いていたので、安心できました。
綺麗な魚がサンゴ礁も見れました。
滑り台も皆楽しそうでした。
写真も撮ってくれて、後でDLできます。
相対的にとてもいいツアーだと思いました。

The weather was nice, and I enjoyed places like the Churaumi Aquarium and Kouri Island, which I visited for the first time. It's a shame there were fewer people due to the impact of COVID-19, but I would like to use this service again when I visit Okinawa.

天気が良く、美ら海水族館や初めて行く古宇利島など楽しめました
コロナの影響で人が少なかったのは残念ですが、また沖縄に行ったら利用したいと思います

Since we didn't reach the minimum number of participants, we joined another company's boat, but we were able to go snorkeling in beautiful waters. We took a lot of photos and made great memories. The staff were friendly and chatted with us, making it a fun experience without any worries about the sea. I would love to use this service again.

最小人数にいかなかったので、他の会社の船に乗り合いになったが、綺麗な海でシュノーケリングさせて頂きました。
沢山写真も撮ってもらって、良い思い出が出来ました。
スタッフさんも、気さくにお話ししてくださり、海の不安もなく楽しい思い出でした。
また、利用させてほしいです。

I thought my schedule was packed, but surprisingly, I was able to act with some flexibility, so I was satisfied. Perhaps because of the season, the Churaumi Aquarium wasn't as crowded as usual?

スケジュールがびっちりだなぁと思っていましたが、意外と余裕をもって行動できましたので満足でした。
この時期だからか、普段ほど美ら海水族館は混雑していなかったのかな？

I experienced scuba diving for the first time in a while. The ocean was so beautiful, and I was truly moved. Also, the staff were very kind, and I would like to use their services again if I have the opportunity!

久々にスキュバダイビングを体験しました。とても海が綺麗で感動しました。また、スタッフの方々がとても親切で、機会があればまたお世話になろうと思います！

When I boarded the bus, I noticed that the seats next to me were left empty, which made me feel that proper COVID-19 measures were being taken.

At the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, you can reserve seats by the tank in a restaurant where you can enjoy a meal while watching the whale sharks. Despite it being Sunday, I was seated after just a 15-minute wait, so be sure to announce your name upon arrival at the large tank. There was a time limit of about 40 minutes, but it was enough time to enjoy taco rice.

The freshly made sata andagi at the newly constructed facility on the second floor of Manzamo was delicious. There were about 5 to 6 varieties, each costing 90 yen. You can enjoy them while sitting on the terrace with a view of the sea.

The only disappointment was that the weather on Kouri Island wasn't great. There's nothing that can be done about that.

I believe the main reason I had such a comfortable day was that the guide was wonderful. They provided guidance along the way with a pleasant voice, and their warm and gentle personality was truly soothing.

バスに乗り込むと、前後と通路を挟んだお隣は空席にしてあり、コロナ対策がしっかりとなされていると感じました。
美ら海水族館ではジンベイザメを眺めながら食事が出来るレストランの水槽側の席が予約可能です。日曜日にもかかわらず待ち時間15分で案内されたので、巨大水槽についたらまず名前を告げて予約しましょう。40分くらいの時間制限がありましたが、タコライスを食べるには十分な時間です。
万座毛に新たに建設された施設2階の揚げたてサーターアンダギーが
美味しかったです。5～6種類あり、1個90円。テラス席で海を見ながらいただけます。
唯一残念だったのは、古宇利島でお天気が良くなかったこと。こればかりは仕方ありません。
快適な一日を過ごせた最大の理由は、ガイドさんが素晴らしかったからだと思います。心地の良い声で道中案内してくださって、温かく穏やかなお人柄に癒されました。

I was staying at a hotel in Yomitan Village and didn't have a rental car, but I really wanted to go to the Churaumi Aquarium, so I joined a tour. The tour efficiently covered the sightseeing spots, and there was no pressure to buy souvenirs, so I truly enjoyed it. The guide was great as well.

読谷村のホテルに泊まっていてレンタカーを借りていなかったのですが、どうしても美ら海水族館に行きたくて参加しました。
ツアーは効率よく観光場所を回り、無理にお土産等買わせようということもみられなかったので、本当に楽しめました。
ガイドさんもよかったです。

The woman who guided us during snorkeling was very kind and friendly. She took various photos that captured moments I didn't even notice. The ultimate act of kindness was when I dropped my phone while snorkeling, and she found it by free diving; I was truly happy about that. It was also great that I could do parasailing at a low cost on the way back, and since my birthday was approaching, she even prepared a commemorative photo frame. It was truly an enjoyable trip.

シュノーケリングを案内してくれた女性の方が、とても親切で優しかったです。写真もいろいろな自分が気づかないような画面を撮ってくれていました。究極のお世話になった内容は、シュノーケリング中に携帯を落としたところ、素潜りで見つけてくれたときには本当に嬉しかったです。帰り際に安価でパラセーリングもできたことも良かったし、誕生日が近かったので記念の写真立てのような準備までしてくれて、本当に楽しい旅でしたよ。

I experienced the above course during my trip from Osaka!

From the reservation stage, they kindly explained everything, allowing me to face the day without any worries! Even after gathering at the location, all the staff were very kind and friendly...

They provided detailed explanations from the beginning to the end of the tour, and I was able to complete it safely without any worries or issues! Everyone was so approachable and cheerful, and I truly had a wonderful time!

This time I only did snorkeling, but I definitely want to use their services for other courses as well! I'm really glad I chose this shop! If you're unsure between other shops, I highly recommend this one!!!

Thank you to all the staff, and especially to Haru-chan, for the best memories!

大阪からの旅行で､上記のコースを体験させていただきました！

予約の段階から色々と親切に説明していただき､不安なく当日を向かえることができました！現地に集合してからも､スタッフの皆様はとっても優しく親切で…

ツアーの最初から最後まで細かく説明してくださいますし､何の不安や問題もなく､安全に終えることができました！何よリ皆様とても気さくで明るく､本当に本当に楽しい時間を過ごさせていただきました！

今回はシュノーケリングのみでしたが､絶対にまた他のコースでも利用させていただきたいと思います！こちらのお店を選んで本当に良かったです！もし他のお店とお迷いの方は､是非ともこちらをおすすすめします！！！

スタッフの皆様､そしてはるちゃん、最高の思い出をあリがとうございました！

I participated using the GoTo campaign. According to the guide, before COVID-19, it was fully booked every day. After reopening, it seems to be quite empty. There were only five participants on the day I joined.
The main stops were Manzamo, Kouri Island, Okashi Goten, Churaumi Aquarium, and Pineapple Park.
Each sightseeing spot was enjoyable to some extent, but since Okashi Goten also has a store in Naha's Kokusai Street, I honestly felt it wasn't necessary. Still, the staff at the sales store were very pleasant.
Additionally, we had lunch there, but the Okinawa soba was lukewarm and honestly did not suit my taste at all. It might have been better to use the cafeteria at the Kouri Island rest area.
I had heard the song from Pineapple Park many times at Don Quijote on Kokusai Street, so I felt, "Is this the place?" Also, the renovations varied greatly from place to place, which made me confused about whether the route we were taking was correct, and it took a long time to get through. The commercial aspect was very strong, and I wondered about that. Personally, I imagined a place where I could compare and taste different varieties of fresh pineapples.
That said, for those who want to enjoy the northern part without renting a car, this might be the best tour option.

GoToキャンペーンを利用して参加。ガイドさんに聞いたところコロナ前は連日満席。再開後は閑古鳥が鳴いているということでした。当日参加者は5名と少数。
主な停車場所は万座毛、古宇利島、御菓子御殿、美ら海水族館、パイナップルパーク。
各観光箇所はそれなりに楽しめましたが、御菓子御殿は那覇・国際通りにも店舗があるので正直必要性は…という感じ。それでも販売店舗の方の店員さんの感じは非常によかったです。
更にそこで昼食だったのですが沖縄そばがぬるかったし正直わたしの口にはまったく合いませんでした。古宇利島休憩所の食堂を利用した方がよかったかも。
パイナップルパークは曲を国際通りのドンキホーテで何度となく聴いていたので「ここがその場所か」という感じでした。また、改装の具合が場所ごとに全く違うことから移動しているルートが正しいのか戸惑い、抜けるのに時間がかかるのと商業色がめっちゃ強くてどうなんだろうなぁという感じです。個人的には素のパイナップルを品種別に比較して食べられるようなところを想像していました。
それでもレンタカーを借りないで少しでも北部を楽しもうとする人には一番向いたツアーではないでしょうか。

On the day of our outing, the weather was a bit uncertain due to an approaching typhoon, but they adjusted the plan with safety in mind, and we had a great time. With a small group and care for those with less experience, I believe everyone enjoyed themselves! We participated as a group of four, and they took over 50 photos just for us, making for a fulfilling SUP experience. I would love to join again next time. Thank you!

当日は台風が近付いていた事もあり、天候が微妙でしたが安全に配慮しながら少し変更したプランを出していただき楽しませてもらいました。
少人数で経験が少ない人にもケアしていて全員が楽しめたと思います！
4人で参加しましたが私達の分だけで写真も50枚以上撮影していただいて充実したSUP体験になりました。
また次回も参加したいと思います、ありがとうございました。

I had plenty of time to explore each site, and I was able to enjoy sightseeing efficiently without having to drive myself. Although I was concerned about COVID-19, it was reassuring that everyone was sanitized when getting on and off. The tour didn't include lunch, but I was happy to receive a complimentary sandwich.

どこの見学も充分な時間があり、自分で運転せずに、効率よく観光することができました。コロナの心配もありましたが、乗り降りの際に全員除菌するので、安心でした。お昼ご飯が付いていないコースでしたが、サービスでサンドイッチも一枚頂けて嬉しかったです。

I made a last-minute trip reservation the day before, but everything was processed smoothly, and I am satisfied. The bus tour and the guide were both very dedicated, and I felt positively about it. I'm glad I participated.

突然、思い立った旅行で前日の予約でしたが
全てスムーズに処理されて満足です。
バスツアーもガイドさんも一生懸命で好感が持てました、参加して良かったです。

It was uncertain in the morning whether the tour could proceed due to the transition from an extratropical low-pressure system to Typhoon No. 12, but upon arriving at the Kerama Islands, I was able to see the beautifully calm blue sea and coral reefs, which felt almost like a dream. There were restrooms and showers available, and I could change clothes on the boat. I also returned the rental car and made it back to the airport in time for my flight.

温帯低気圧から台風12号に変化してしまい催行できるか朝の判断でしたが、慶良間諸島に着いたら嘘の様な穏やかな青い海とサンゴ礁を見ることができました。トイレもシャワーもあり、船の中で着替えることができ、レンタカーも返却して帰りの飛行機にも無事間に合いました。

You can reach the shop "Meeting Place" in about 20 minutes by taxi from Naha Airport. The staff were very friendly and kind. I definitely want to use your services again next time. Thank you!

那覇空港からタクシーに乗り20分位でショップ「集合場所」に行けます。
スタッフの皆さんはとてもフレンドリーで親切でした。
是非次回もお世話になりたいと思います。
ありがとうございました！

We weren't blessed with good weather, but the sea was still beautiful! There were plenty of fish! I was very satisfied! The activities were also a lot of fun, and thanks to that, I ended up with sore muscles, haha. The staff were bright, kind, and friendly, which made the experience enjoyable and warmed my heart! It’s difficult to implement infection control measures during sea activities, but they were well taken care of, which made me feel safe!

天気には恵まれず、、、でしたが、それでも綺麗な海！魚も沢山！大満足でした！アクティビティも、とても楽しくて、お陰様で筋肉痛になりました笑
スタッフ？の方々も明るく優しく親切で、とても楽しめましたし、暖かい気持ちになりました！
海でのアクティビティでは感染対策は難しいですが、しっかりされていて安心でした！

I participated alone. There was another person who also joined alone, so I didn't feel too awkward. The main attraction was the Churaumi Aquarium, and I was able to see various places in one day, including Manzamo and Nago Pineapple Park. It had been nearly 10 years since my last visit to Okinawa, but the beauty of the scenery was just as stunning, and I really enjoyed it.

1人で参加しました。他にも1人で参加されている方がいたので気まずい思いはそこまでしませんでした。
美ら海水族館をメインに、万座毛や名護パイナップルパークなど1日で色んな所を見れました。
約10年近くぶりの沖縄でしたが、景色の美しさは変わらずとても楽しめました。

I participated alone, but I was glad I could go to the places I wanted to visit. They had proper COVID-19 measures in place, and the seating arrangements were considerate, allowing me to spend my time comfortably. The Churaumi Aquarium, which I really wanted to visit, was breathtaking. There was plenty of free time to enjoy everything thoroughly.

1人で参加しましたが行きたい場所に行く事が出来て良かったです。
コロナ対策もきちんとしており座席も考えていて
気持ちよく過ごせました。
どうしても行きたかった美ら海水族館は感動しました。自由行動の時間も多く十分楽しめました。

We participated as a family of four. It was a trial dive just before turning 60. We took a fairly large boat to Kerama. I thought it might get a bit boring since there were a lot of participants, but about half of them were snorkeling around the boat while others were diving, so there was never a dull moment. They also provided fun experiences like diving from the boat into the sea, which kept things exciting. There weren't many people doing three dives, but by the third dive, I was comfortable enough to pose underwater and enjoy myself. The shower rooms and toilets were also much cleaner compared to other companies' boats, thanks to their larger size. I would like to request this again next time, but the hurdle of turning 60...

家族4人で参加。
60歳直前での体験ダイブでした。
結構な大型船でケラマまで。
参加人数も多く、ちょっと退屈するかなと思っていましたが、半分くらいが潜っている間は、船の周りでシュノーケリングができて退屈している間がありませんでした。
また船上からの海へのダイブをさせてくれたりと飽きさせない演出で楽しめました。
3ダイブする人はすくなくて、3ダイブ目は慣れたこともあって水中でポーズをとったりと楽しませてくれました。
シャワー室やトイレも別の会社の船と違って大きいだけにキレイでした。
次回もまたお願いしたいと思いますが、60歳越えのハードルが・・・・・

It was my first experience with the banana boat and the marble, and it was the best time filled with thrills and laughter! The staff were warm and welcoming, and I definitely plan to come back here when I visit Okinawa again!! Thank you for the wonderful time!

バナナボートとマーブル初体験でしたが、絶叫あり笑いありで最高の一時となりました！
スタッフの方々も温かく、沖縄に行った際には絶対にまたここに来ようと思います！！
素敵な時間をありがとうございました！

The female staff's guidance was excellent! They were very kind to the children as well! They even recommended a great restaurant, which was really delicious!

女性のスタッフさんのガイドが凄く良かったです！
子どもにも凄く良く接して頂けました‼︎
オススメのご飯屋さんまで教えて頂き
そこも凄く美味しかったです‼︎

The explanation during the gathering, as well as the transfer from Kerama, was smooth and comfortable. For snorkeling, since the original destination was not clear, I was taken to another uninhabited island for snorkeling. I was amazed by the rare blue coral and the schools of fish, and the scenery was unlike anything I had ever seen.

集合時の説明も、慶良間についてからの移動もスムーズで快適でした。シュノーケリング は、本来行くところがクリアではないということで、別の無人島へのシュノーケリング に連れて行ってもらいました。珍しいと青の珊瑚に、魚の群れ、見たことない景色で感動でした。

I participated in a half-day SUP tour. They picked me up from the hotel on time, and we headed to Kabira by shared transport. During the ride, I learned various things about Ishigaki Island and delicious restaurants, which made the journey enjoyable. It was my first time doing SUP, but they provided a thorough briefing, so I was able to enjoy it without any issues. In areas with waves, they offered towing assistance, so I think even those without much stamina can participate with confidence. In the areas with high visibility, I could see the fish swimming. This time, the wind was strong, and I couldn't stand up much, so I want to join again and have a rematch! Thank you, instructor Furusawa, for the fun time. You took many wonderful photos, which became the best memories.

半日のSUPツアーに参加してきました。
時間通りにホテルにお迎えに来ていただき乗り合いで川平に向かいました。
車内では石垣島のこと、美味しいお店のことなどいろいろなことを教えていただき楽しく過ごすことができました。
SUPは初めてだったのですがきちんとレクチャーをしていただけるので問題なく楽しむことができました。途中波があるところでは牽引してもらえるので体力がない方でも安心して参加できると思います。
透明度が高いところでは泳ぐ魚の姿も見えました、今回は風が強くあまり立つことができなかったのでまた参加してリベンジしたいと思います！
インストラクターの古澤さん、楽しい時間をありがとうございました。ステキなお写真もたくさん撮っていただき最高の思い出になりました。
