      Nik is a kind and thoughtful guide. His communication is excellent and the trek is outstanding. We hiked to two beautiful waterfalls. Nik is sure footed and very helpful in the climb! He provided neoprene booties to forge the water and provided a lovely snack at our summit. 10/10 I highly recommend!

      Great tour

      Fabulous tour with Nik. He is informed and flexible (when we told him we wanted a vegetarian lunch, he quickly pivoted). Did the river tour and kayaking and highly recommend. Rare to find an English speaking guide in Okinawa, but Nik is the one I would call again!

      I went with my family, who were visiting from the US. My son did not want to do it but had a great time. We all took radiant pictures at the waterfall and were given tools to help keep us dry. This was a great activity right before Xmas,

      Nik was very kind and a great guide. Even though I can’t speak English well, he was very patient and understanding. He also picked me up from Nago station, it was very convenient

      Thank you for your 5-star review! That's great to hear you enjoyed the experience. It was a pleasure to help with your transportation too, as we know Okinawa is not the easiest place to get around without a car. All the best, Nik

      Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit miteinander im Yanbaru beim Flusswandern und Baden an zwei Wasserfällen. Nik hat uns interessante Dinge erzählt und besondere Pflanzen und Tiere gezeigt. Vielen Dank für dieses einzigartige Erlebnis!
