Very nice option - Our tour guide (and our bus driver too!) were very lovely and helpful :) The tour included quite a lot of places to visit but we still had enough free time to check them all out. Great option, especially if you don't drive. Worth the money.

Have a good time in the aquarium. - The communication with the tour company was excellent. They showed up on time and every stop was according to plan. We have ample time in the aquarium to explore which is the main attractions.

Enjoy many experiences at leisure - My boyfriend and I took a one-day tour at the beginning of April this year (2021) and we had the most wonderful experience.
We had enough time to visit and enjoy each of the locations. Our guide Yumi-san was extremely accommodating and went out of her way to do the tour bilingually just for us, as we were the only non-Japanese (and her English was excellent too!) The audio guides were very thorough but in a simple language so it’s fun for those who wish to learn about the Okinawan culture and folklore.
Even though we had an unexpected storm along the way, the entire day became a collection of beautiful memories and we’re happy we took the tour with extra time at the aquarium, because this allowed us to relish our time and visit as many facilities as we could (the set is huge and worthy of its popularity!)
Time runs fast when its super fun, so we recommend having as much free time as you can get if you want to try different things, e.g. seeing dolphin shows or feeding them yourself!

Memorable - Having gelato ice cream while watching sun set. Very interesting.
Too bad only 1 store open to have a meal at Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium during this Corona.

Good package - The package is cheap and the entry is free for submarine and aquarium.
Audio guide will also be provided with 8 different languages.
We enjoyed the trip and happy to do more tour in the future.

Not worth the time and money - This tour could have been a lot better. Some of the sights listed we did not go to. I could understand the omission of the glass bottom boat with the weather being rough, but the other sights were not included. Also the tour guide did not give us a lot of informationof the sights we did see. No.map.was provided as to where we were going. Did enjoy the aquarium and that was worth the tour, but beyond that it could have been much better.
