About Tour Guide Victoria N.

My name is Victoria, and I’ve been living on Okinawa for 10 years.

Would you like to visit non-touristy places known only to locals? I’ll be happy to show them to you!

For more than six years, I’ve been guiding tours and sharing the beauty and atmosphere of this unique island with visitors.

I love Japan — its culture, history, and anime — and I’m always excited to share not just facts, but the soul of this place.

On my tours, you will see not only the famous landmarks, but also hidden, fascinating corners of the island that few people know about.

With me, you will experience the real Okinawa: taste local cuisine, hear legends, learn traditions, and glimpse the everyday life of the islanders.

I speak both English and Japanese, so I can help you feel confident and comfortable in any situation.

If you want not just a tour, but a living journey with someone who is truly in love with Japan, I’ll be happy to guide you!
