Information, Tickets, & Travel

Being in a different country automatically means new places to explore and learn about. Here in Okinawa, the ITT office acts as the bridge for the military community to explore and learn about the Okinawan culture by offering trips and discounted tickets to some of the most astonishing places found locally and around Japan. This holiday season is no exception, so head your way to ITT and snag one or all of their best seller Okinawa attraction tickets for this winter. Some of the popular attractions include the Southeast Botanical Gardens Illumination, Murasaki Mura Lantern Festival, and Christmas Fantasy at the Zoo. Enjoy the views of the tropical flowers as they light up the night sky enhancing its already bewildering features. Head to the lantern festival to learn about the Okinawan culture up close. Get that white Christmas vibe by making your way to the zoo during their Christmas Fantasy and enjoy the snow along with more lights and fireworks. These are just a few of what ITT offers. Visit their office or contact ITT for more trips and information.
