We had a wonderful day with Kumiko San touring the northern part of Okinawa, including Ogimi village. Kumiko crafted an itinerary that suited our family’s interests and children’s stamina. We learned so much! The river trek to a waterfall was a welcome break from the summer heat, we experienced unique flavors with a nutritious longevity lunch. a highlight was playing a round of gate ball with local elders. Kumiko kindly took photos and videos to share with us throughout the day and provided more information that addressed all of our questions. Highly recommend to any groups or families wishing to learn about the local way of life in Ogimi village!

We joined another private day tour with Ms Kumiko to visit Ogimi Village, the famous Okinawa "Healthy and Longevity Village". There we spent a morning with the elderly ladies and gentlemen in the Village Hall. Even though some of them are already in their 90's (one of the ladies is 105 years old!!), they are so cheerful and positive. We were very happy to do exercises and dancing with them. It appears that age for them is just a number and their hearts are always young inside. Lunch by a local lady was eye opening! The ingredients were made from wild plants inside the Okinawa forrest and very tasty. Thanks Ms Kumiko for the arrangement and bringing us there. We learnt how to live a happy and healthy long life after this tour. Not just natural environment and healthy food, you also need a positive and energetic mindset and stay active like those wonderful elderly ladies and gentlemen in Ogimi Village.

Kumiko is a very friendly and knowledgable guide. She goes above and beyond to make sure the tour is catered to your needs and everything runs smoothly. Communication was very easy and Kumiko was able to adapt to my requests and make the most out of our extra time at the end of the afternoon with some added beach stops. Don't hesitate to book Kumiko for a fun and informative day in Okinawa!

Kumiko is a wonderful warm and friendly tour guide, full of information and positive spirit. This is the first of three tours we took with Kumiko. First, she took us to a lovely waterfall in Ogimi followed by a tour of an artisan kimono cloth made from banana stump. The highlight was going to the Blue Zone village of Ogimi and eating a beautiful multi-course longevity meal. This village boasts many residents over 100 yrs old. Kumiko showed us their gardens where ingredients were used in our delicious meal. We went to an organic farm to learn their natural farming technique then travelled to the Shikuwasa citrus factory and tasted the tart juice filled with healing properties. The day went by fast and appreciated experiencing the culture and their way of living in a more spiritual, less stressful environment. Thank you Kumiko for a fantastic tour.
