Okinawa Main Island Virtual Tours & Experiences

“A treasured tour and tour guide!”

When we recently visited Okinawa, our party knew we had a strong desire to visit the different memorials and sites relevant to WWII events. After an extensive search we stumbled upon this tour option with Tateo. I instantly reached out. Tateo was very quick and thorough in his responses, which was especially helpful since our trip was imminently approaching. Making every effort to coordinate with our limited free time, Tateo worked with us to create the perfect itinerary. Upon the morning of our tour, he promptly awaited us. He had arranged for a car, which provided ease in transportation. Tateo escorted us from site to site and kept us on time as we needed for later plans. He was a safe driver and the car was very clean. Not only was he respectful and kind, Tateo was extremely knowledgeable, adding to the depth of our understanding as we explored the different memorials and museums. Thoughtfully Tateo provided a yummy Japanese snack to keep us energized during our tour. When we asked how to buy more, he stopped to help us easily find them in a local grocery store. Our tour with Tateo was perfect in every way and we would all highly recommend both this tour and especially Tateo to everyone who visits Okinawa. The sites themselves left powerful impressions on our lives of broken yesterdays that will forever be remembered and respected, yet Tateo left an additional footprint of warmth and hope in future tomorrows that will always be treasured.

“Excellent! ”

Tateo was a wonderful guide and we learned so much about Okianwa — the culture, the history, the people, the traditions, the food and more! We had a very rainy day and Tateo made sure to make the most of it for us, despite the weather. We were in Okinawa for a week and this was one of our favorite parts! Thank you, Tateo!

Hi, Danielle B. On the day of the tour, weather condition were the worst ever, with record heavy rain, lightning, and traffic jams. Still, I'm glad that we were able to finish the tour on schedule. I was surprised when you showed me the photos of your six children. When you return, please tell them that there are so many way to live and see even in a small island. Please take care of yourself and enjoy the rest of your trip. Thank you for taking the time to write such a nice review. Best Regards Tateo U.

“A fantastic guide and a delightful young man”

If you are looking for somebody who can help you understand the rich culture, history and ecology of Okinawa, then you need look no further than Harry. Harry is fluent in English, knowledgeable and willing to discuss openly the issues faced by the citizens of Okinawa since the end of WW2. My original trip had to be modified as the day progressed because of the weather but the outcome was still enjoyable and so interesting. I thoroughly recommend Harry.

Although there was an unexpected closure of Nakagusuku Castle due to weather conditions, your strong curiosity and keen insight made the modified tour very "edutaining". Thank you very much! I hope our tour helped you understand the next day's tour of the Battle of Okinawa deeper! Next time you come to Okinawa, please let me introduce you to Nakagusuku Castle and Katsuren Castle!
