About Tour Guide Yuki H.
Hi, I’m Yuki from Okinawa!
Born and raised here, I know the island not only as a destination, but as home. After spending 5 years living in Australia, I understand what international travelers look for — authenticity, connection, and comfort.
As a local guide with one year of experience, I love sharing the real Okinawa beyond the typical tourist spots. I will guide you through history, culture, food, and everyday island life while making sure your day is smooth, comfortable, and fun.
My goal is simple: not just to show you Okinawa, but to help you feel it.
I look forward to meeting you and exploring together!

“Connecting to the soul of Okinawa”
We spent 2 wonderful days touring the island with Yuki. On the first day we went North to visit the Ocean Expo and Ryuku Village. Both were amazing experiences like no other. Yuki timed it perfectly so we were able to view the impressive display of marine life and get seats for the dolphin show. He did the same for us at the Ryuku Village where we saw a butterfly garden, the traditions of the village and ended with a powerful Taiko drumming performance. On the second day we went South where Yuki helped me connect to my family history at the Himeyuri war memorial and finished with a traditional Okinawan soba lunch. He took us to a perfect spot that we would never have found in our own. Yuki gave us everything we wanted during our 2 days. He even stopped at places we asked about along the way. Yuki was prompt, polite, flexible, funny, informative and helped us to connect with the Okinawan culture. Thank you Yuki for all the memories.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It truly means a lot to me. ️ I also had an absolutely amazing two days with you. From Ocean Expo Park and Ryukyu Mura in the North, to Himeyuri Memorial and our delicious Okinawan soba lunch in the South, every moment was special. But honestly, it wasn’t just the places we visited. The conversations we had in the car, the laughs we shared, and all the little stops along the way made these two days unforgettable for me as well. I’m especially happy that I could help you connect with Okinawa and your family history. It was a very meaningful experience for me too. Thank you for trusting me to show you around Okinawa, and for being so open and easygoing throughout the two days. You helped make these two days just as special for me as I hope they were for you. I’ll always remember the wonderful memories we made together. I hope we can meet again in Okinawa someday!

“A perfect day ”
Yuki picked me up in my hotel at 9 am and at the end of an amazing day we said goodbye as great friends. We took the ferry to Zamami Island, rented scooters and Yuki showed me breathtaking scenery points and some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. We went snorkeling as well, what an experience. Just before returning the scooters (to catch the ferry back) we went for a quick swim to cool down and when ready to head back to the scooter rental shop I noticed I lost my scooter key in the ocean! So we went back in the water… and Yuki found the key on the ocean floor! What a day. Yuki is an amazing guy, great stories, great fun, and definitely a new friend. Highly recommended! If you come to Okinawa: Yuki is the guy, a rock star - so once again, Thank you Yuki!

Yuki H.
Thanks a million for the kind words! Honestly, our day at Zamami was one for the books—and finding that scooter key in the ocean was definitely a total miracle! I’m so happy I could help make your trip special, and I truly feel like I made a great friend. Come back anytime.

"Chuuganabira" or "Hello" as we say here in Shuri! I'm Sara. My mother is Japanese from Nagasaki and my father is American from Pennsylvania. I spent my formative years between Japan and the U.S. giving me a naturally bicultural outlook and global sensibility. I am a hospitality professional with over 35 years of experience in Japan’s international hotel and tourism industries having held senior positions with world-renowned hotels. I've welcomed distinguished guests - from artists and actors and political leaders and celebrity chefs. I have also worked as a simultaneous interpreter for major Japanese organizations supporting large scale cultural and international events. I relocated from Tokyo to Naha in 2003 because I totally fell in love with this beautiful port city during my travels - the warm friendly people, delicious local food, rich history and culture and most of all the breathtaking turquoise ocean and magnificent blue sky. My passion is making people happy through "omotenashi" - the Japanese art of polite, thoughtful and respectful hospitality. I specialize in Shuri Castle tours and have insider access to Shuri Castle through my onsite research, membership in the Shuri Castle Friendship Association and a close relationship with both the castle's staff and the Okinawa Churashima Foundation which operates the castle. I also have deep ties with the descendants of the Sho royal family, offering rare insights into the history and culture of the Ryukyu Kingdom. I am looking forward to introducing you to the royal, majestic and fascinating world of Shuri!
