Experience local food in Okinawa

Special Summer Tour: June 1st – October 31st

We will introduce you to Okinawa's unique food culture while touring the most famous markets and surrounding stores in Okinawa.

When do Naha citizens go to the market, what kind of ingredients do they buy, and how do they prepare them? You will experience Okinawa's food culture while actually walking around the city and visiting stores.

This guided tour is exciting just to walk around and see rare foodstuffs that can only be found in Okinawa and traditional stores.
