“Mai was the best! ”
A wonderful day out through the countryside with a local. The photos I found online when I was researching my trip doesn't do this place justice - it was definitely worth getting a little off the beaten track. Although Takachiho Gorge has recently become Instagram famous, it still felt very manageable and foreign tourists were still the exception. Beforehand I was disappointed I didn't manage to get boat rental tickets (they sold out within hours online as soon as they dropped 2 weeks prior) but on the day we didn't feel like we missed out at all. Mai managed to fit everything into the day without feeling rushed and there was the perfect mix of everything for us and our teenage boys. We really enjoyed the charming farm to table soba restaurant Mai took us to for lunch. Kumamoto Castle was an impressive way to cap off the day. Mai is a kind, lovely companion for a scenic day out around Takachiho and Kumamoto - thank you so much for the memories we'll treasure as a family forever!
“One piece- amazing tour!”
Mai was super lovely and amazing. We got to see all 10 statues with plenty of time to spare. She was super nice and informative and it was one of the best days we spent in japan. Highly recommend and look forward to using her services once more!
“Bucket List Fulfilled! ”
Thank you, Mai-san, for the smooth and fuss-free trip to the different One Piece statues scattered so far away around the Kumamoto Prefecture! The trip was well-planned in terms of the travel route and schedule to ensure that we saw all the statues before it got dark. In addition, Mai-san also introduced us to delicious local delicacies as we stopped by various farmers' market en route. I truly enjoyed the tour by Mai-san, especially as she was hospitable and eThank you, Mai-san, for the smooth and fuss-free trip to the different One Piece statues scattered so far away around the Kumamoto Prefecture!
