5.00My partner and I had so much fun on this tour! We visited and snorkeled at two beaches and had a short hike to a beautiful waterfall to swim. Nik was an amazing guide and he was super friendly. He knew all of the good spots to take us and customized the tour to our liking. Would definitely book again!
Stress free way to spend an awesome day on the beach and in the Ocean

5.00We booked this tour with Nik for a private and customized experience in Okinawa. Nik picked us up from our hotel in Naha and drove up the coast with some gorgeous scenery. We arrived at an exclusive beach that had very few people on it. He took us out to the ocean for some snorkeling fun. Just make sure you protect your skin from the sun! Lunch was at this amazing little restaurant overlooking the ocean. After lunch we went on a river trek that was absolutely breathtaking. The water fall at the end of the trek was just amazing. We had an awesome time with Nik and highly recommend him to any one visiting Okinawa.

Great family snorkeling experience - in secluded bay - with experienced guide

5.00We booked a snorkeling tour, two adults, 1 child 13 years. Our son is not so safe in swimming in the open sea. Nik practically taught him to snorkel, took him on a safety line, our son was thrilled and was able to discover the water world so carefree. We snorkeled in a deserted bay, the underwater world was intact, colorful, with schools of fish of all colors. I myself am a tourist and have snorkeled in many places. Here the underwater world seemed to me to be in good condition. Plus point: Nik had a freshwater tank in the car. So we could shower in the aftermath.
Like hanging out with a good friend--A truly great guide and a truly memorable experience!

5.00Our guide was amazing--very knowledgeable about the area, flexible, communicative, and had great insight on the best snorkeling reefs appropriate to the day's weather conditions . The place where he took us for lunch had excellent food and an awesome island-vibe atmosphere. We really appreciated his quick responses to questions before the day of our adventure and his willingness to pick us up from a farther-away hotel and to accommodate the last-minute additions to our party. Traveling around the island and exploring the reefs with Nic felt like hanging out with a good friend. He clearly wanted us to enjoy our time with him and looked out for our needs and interests. The time we spent in the water at each location was wonderfully generous. Afterward, Nic shared underwater photos he had taken along the way.. A truly great guide and a truly memorable experience!

5.00We had a fabulous day with Nik on the snorkeling and beaches tour. The first and last stops being absolutely gorgeous. The first stop was the best snorkeling I’ve ever done, the coral and fish absolutely amazing. Lunch was at a small local restaurant and was a highlight meal from our stay so far, so fresh and delicious. Nik was a great guide and it was lovely to be able to chat and ask questions about Okinawa and the lifestyle of the locals. We highly recommend this tour!
Fun in the Sun with Nik!

5.00We had a great day with Nik! He took us to awesome beaches for snorkeling and then the river trekking to the most amazing waterfalls! Lunch was fabulous and he provided snacks, drinks and the sweetest little gift bag of treats at the end of the trip. Highly recommend Nik and this tour!
