5.00We booked a food tour in Naha with Aki at the end of March 2026. He was very personable and knowledgeable about the local hidden food spots around Naha. He was able to communicate with all of the vendors and very accommodating to the pace of our group. He took us to a nice variety of places that showcased the unique and delicious item of Okinawa. I highly recommend Aki to anyone who wants to experience some local cuisine. Nifee Debiru, Aki!

5.00Thank you, Aki-san, for an awesome tour! I highly recommend booking a tour with Aki if you are visiting Naha! We booked the Customized Tour for our group of 6. It was super easy to coordinate with Aki on WhatsApp leading up to our tour. He even helped us resolve an issue that came up with our booking platform. Not only is Aki friendly and knowledgable about the history of Naha and Okinawa, he is a true foodie! Our walking tour skipped over the touristy spots, and he took us try delicious Okinawan and traditional Ryukyu food from shops run by locals. We definitely would not have been able to find these spots on our own, even with lots of internet and Instagram research. I will definitely be recommending Aki-san to any friends and family visiting Naha!
We did a food walking to her through markets, stopping at cafés street food, and culminating in a wonderful hidden café

5.00Very nice and knowledgeable guide (Aki) with good connections to the locals who showed us hidden gems which we would have never discovered without him. It was absolutely worth it. Food culture in Okinawa is so different from the rest of Japan!

5.00Aki is a very knowledgeable tour guide and offered an excellent variety of stops. We were able to taste many authentic Okinawan offerings, including cane juice, sata andagi, peanut tofu, fruit, Okinawan soba, musubi, and muchi. He took us to back side cafes that you would generally be able to find, unless you knew about it. All stops were great, and a lot of tastings. Speaks very good English.
Must do tour in Okinawa!
