“Harry is Fantastic!!!”
I had a very different request in that I lived on Okinawa in the late 1970’s and wanted to see if several places still existed. Harry went above and beyond in researching places and combined the visits to historical places to make a completely customized tour that my friends and I thoroughly enjoyed! Harry also was compassionate in dealing with this widow’s emotional reminiscences. Thank you so much Harry!!

“Fantastic Personalized Tour Created by Harry”
This is my second visit to Okinawa to conduct research on kariyushi wear and my second time with Harry as a tour guide. As usual, Harry was amazing. He was so detail oriented when creating a personalized tour for me. He asked such insightful questions, took the time to search out the best places for me to check out, made some great suggestions, and arranged everything! I am so grateful to Harry for this thoughtfulness. If anyone reading this is ever in doubt, do not hesitate to book Harry for your guide - you will not regret it!

Dear Christen-san, Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for choosing me again—it was an honor to guide you for the second time. I truly appreciated the opportunity to support your research on kariyushi wear. Through the tour, I gained a deeper understanding of how Okinawan people view both Kariyushi and Aloha styles, which was very insightful for me as well. I hope our paths cross again on your next journey! —Harry

Dear Hans-san, Thank you very much for your kind words! It was a pleasure to guide you through the historical sites of Okinawa. I'm glad to hear that the tour met your expectations and that you found the information you were seeking about the Battle of Okinawa. I also learned a great deal about World War II, particularly the European front, from our conversation! Your recommendation means a lot to me, and I appreciate you informing your travel agent as well. Wishing you all the best on your future travels, and I hope our paths cross again! Warm regards, Harry
