I went on a Sunday night, and there weren't many visitors, so I was a bit worried at first, but I was pleasantly surprised. The lanterns were truly beautiful. I could really feel the efforts of everyone trying to create a tourist attraction that would be a major attraction in Okinawa's winter off-season. I did feel that the projection mapping could have been improved a bit more.
This was my first time trying a chartered car instead of driving myself, and it was much more relaxed. We discussed the places we wanted to visit beforehand, and the company also gave some suggestions. The driver was a very nice guy. Although he was Japanese, he could speak Chinese at the tourist spots, so we didn't need a translator to communicate. He was also very accommodating if we wanted to change the destination at the last minute. It was a fantastic experience.
The driver was punctual and waiting at the cruise terminal with a sign. We could easily communicate our pick-up time using simple English, and the family enjoyed a comfortable and pleasant chartered trip.
A group of 5 people (including 2 elderly and 2 wheelchairs), Okinawa Naha (Ryukyu driver) chartered car arrived on time, chartered car is an old driver from Okinawa, the surface is very serious, but very smart to use google translate to communicate with us. We drive straight to the northern Manzamao, Beautiful Sea Aquarium (many museums can be visited for free), to Jincheng to eat Ishigaki Island Wagyu (see our elderly, charter companies are willing to book with us Ishigaki beef specialty store, because you have to speak Japanese to make an appointment), Special mention, at the aquarium met Okinawa Naha beautiful girl students, took the initiative to help push my grandfather's wheelchair, laughing heartily, the whole group of beautiful girls are very kind and cute!
For those who don't want to drive themselves when visiting Okinawa, this chartered car service is the most comfortable option. This time, we chose the deluxe 7-seater. From the hotel, the seats were spacious and clean, with suitable child car seats and ample storage space for a stroller and small supplies, ensuring a comfortable trip for the whole family. The driver was very steady and helpful with getting the stroller in and out. During our tour of northern Okinawa, we listened to Chinese-speaking commentary at each attraction, and the time allotted for sightseeing was well-managed. We were especially lucky to catch the sunset at American Village, which was fantastic. Even on the weekend return trip, they accurately predicted minor traffic jams, preventing us from getting stuck on the road. Overall, the chartered car tour was very comfortable and relaxing, with well-planned distances between attractions and minimal travel time. I look forward to choosing this company again.
It's very convenient; you don't need much communication. The staff can understand it at a glance when they see the QR code and immediately guide you. The price is also relatively cheap.
The driver was a native of Okinawa and was very enthusiastic and attentive, although my Japanese was very limited, but he was very patient and slowly told me to understand, what needed attention at each attraction would also be said in advance, praise
