After grasping the basic information about Okinawa at a museum, I will take you to authentic historical/cultural assets where you can have a unique and unforgettable experience.
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.

“Fantastic and Informative Day!”
Hirosan led an awesome tour! My family and I (5 total) really enjoyed our day learning more about not only the history of the Battle of Okinawa but about Japanese History, as well! Hirosan is super knowledgeable and a great storyteller! He was eager and willing to answer our questions and to even elaborate more. It was 100% worth it!
