American Village

The itinerary was perfectly arranged, the whole process was very comfortable, and the tour guide was very kind.

It's very convenient and cheaper than other tour companies, making it a great option for those traveling to northern Okinawa without a car. A one-hour stop at Cape Manzamo and three hours at Churaumi Aquarium are plenty of time. Our bus returned from the aquarium at 4:20 PM that day, encountering a bit of traffic and arriving at American Village at 6:50 PM (the journey from the aquarium to American Village takes at least two hours, not the 5:30 PM arrival time stated in the itinerary). We got off at American Village, explored the area, and then took a public bus back to Naha. Note that after 8:00 PM, direct buses to Naha become very scarce, and you'll need to find the bus stop location (mainly relying on Google Maps for assistance).

My first time riding a double-decker open-air bus 🚌 The view was great, and the tour guide on board was beautiful and tall!

The itinerary was comprehensive, the tour guide provided detailed explanations, and the driver drove smoothly and comfortably. The only downside was the sheer number of cars in Okinawa; we were stuck in traffic the entire way back.

Since we stayed near the prefectural town center, American Village wasn't as far as I had imagined. Next time, we might take the bus there ourselves! But I must say, the Japanese driver was really steady on his feet. My daughter happily enjoyed the scenery along the way, and that's how we got back to Kokusai-dori.
