Tracing the Front Line! - WWII Battle of Okinawa Tour
The Battle of Okinawa was one of the bloodiest ground warfare in WWII. When U.S. troops landed on Okinawa island on April 1, 1945, there was little counterattack contrary to their expectations. This was because the Japanese strategy was to build strong underground positions in the southern part of the island and turn the fight into an endurance contest. From this day, the 3 months of fierce battles embroiling citizens began. In this tour, we will trace the front line of the battle in 2 days.

Journey to the Birthplace! - Karate Heritage Tour
“Amazing!!!”
Harry-san is a nice and kind boy who totally transmits to us the love he feels for his culture, making our respect grow. Although the plans were not what we expected, he made sure that we had a good time and took us to places that I would not have expected, as well as others that we did not know existed. It was definitely a great opportunity to meet him, I will not hesitate to look for him again when I return to Okinawa.

“Exciting, easy-going, custom and fun! ”
Harry is a great human, very kind and accommodating, he is a natural at this kind of work. Harry took the time to customize my experience and even to join in when appropriate. Harry made the experience very comfortable and relaxing. I could 100 percent rely on him and simply just sit back enjoy myself. He drove to all of our spots, The days went by so fast but Harry kept me on track for the full experience- and always made sure I was good, having fun or getting something out of what we were doing. He was quick to swap things in or out and used his social network to deliver top notch experiences as well as advice! I came with intent and he was so helpful to answer my questions or have them answered for me. We had lots of laughs and I’m glad to call Harry my friend after this experience. Without question, I would recommend Harry in a heartbeat.
