“Great Day Touring Sasebo with Hero”

We had a wonderful time with Hero who met us at the cruise terminal with a very comfortable van for our group of 5. He had a printed itinerary that outlined where we would visit. 9:00 Drive to Hirado Island (40 mins). Guide will wait until we disembark. We went to Hirado Island and visited Hirado Castle, Xavier Memorial Church, and had a delicious sushi lunch. We proceeded to Mikawachi pottery town where we visited the museum and so beautiful pottery and visited local shops and kilns where we got to see amazing pottery. He managed our time very efficiently but it didn't feel rushed. Hero was very warm, engaging and also very thoughtful. He gave us a bag of yummy homemade donuts which he made! I highly recommend Hero for your visit to Sasebo/Hirado area.

“An excellent day with Hero”

Hero was the perfect guide. He was very responsive and wonderful about having to adjust our times slightly. Hero was early to meet us and kept a very efficient schedule throughout the day. We saw everything we requested and he took us to the most delicious lunch we have ever had at his favorite restaurant. We also had a special surprise when Hero brought out a tea ceremony for us complete with cakes he had baked himself. We had the perfect day with him as our guide I highly recommend him.

Hi Diane, Thank you very much for the great review of me. I appreciate it. I had a wonderful time with both of you, too. If we can have another opportunity, I wanna guide you other places in Nagasaki or in Okinawa. I hope to see you again somewhere some time. Best regards, Hero

“Loved our day in Nagasaki with Sho! ”

We did a cruise around Japan and preferred to find local guides for each port instead of big group tours. I'm so happy we found Sho and booked his tour in Nagasaki. He was such an excellent host and ambassador for the city. We saw a great mix of important historical sites and also a glimpse into everyday life in the city. Sho even took us around his own neighbourhood and a favourite place for lunch. It was honestly like meeting up with a good friend for the day! Sho, if you ever visit Canada, send us an email - we'd love to be your "guides" and I promise there will be a big meal of fresh lobster from our area!

Hi Charmayne! Thank you so much for your wonderful review—and for visiting Nagasaki, a city I truly love! I'm really happy to hear you enjoyed the tour (and a glimpse into my daily life!), and I hope it became one of the special memories from your time in Japan. Someday, I’d love to visit Canada and eat lobster until I’m full… :D See you again!!
