Hi. I was a tour guide for Japanese speak in Japanese in main-land Japan around Tokyo. Now, I live in Okinawa for over ten years with my family. I wanted to be a tour guide for foreigners because I appreciate people's helps when I traveled around world. I traveled over seventy countries. I like traveling because I learn a lot from people who I meet. Finally, I got a certificate for being an English tour guide. I would like you to spend meaningful time in Okinawa. Okinawa has unique culture, they mixed Japanese and Chinese way, then, built up a new own culture. With limited time, I hope you enjoy seeing a lot and knowing a lot.

“A very interesting and informative tour”
We had a lovely Sunday tour with Noriko. She arrived at our hotel promptly and took us in her vehicle to the Peace Memorial, Haebaru Village Museum, the former Japanese Underground and Hacksaw Ridge. Noriko was a wealth of information and we understood her perfectly. Definitely recommend this tour and guide.

(43 reviews)Thank you for your message. I always astonish that visitors are deeply concerned with Okinawan history. With your sofiscated questions, I learned a lot. For me, I will remember you when I see a bear and some calm quite nature forest on TV. Thank you

“Noriko should be a psychologist!”
Had a wonderful day with Noriko’s expertise. The day was deliberately unstructured and started with a weighty visit to Peace Park — the tone for me was similar to visiting Gettysburg. Noriko patiently engaged me and realized I was most interested in areas of the Island I was once stationed at some 3+ decades ago. At that point, our tour changed to one of a guide taking me back to my old haunts and allowing me to linger. She gave me space to take it all in. Her probing questions uncovered areas of my interest we visited that I did not anticipate. I strongly recommend considering Noriko as your local guide — she made my one day with her a very memorable experience for me. Ernest
