All your favorite ONE PIECE characters are in Kumamoto.

About Tour Guide Steve R.
Hello! I'm Steve and I’m originally from Sydney, Australia, but I’ve lived in Kumamoto City for the past 28 years. I hold a Gold license. I’d love to take you on a tour of some of the region’s most historic and stunning sites. I took my profile picture on the balcony of my home, which sits high on a hill, offering great views of the city both day and night, with majestic mountain ranges in the distance.
I was a school teacher here for 25 years, starting in Japanese public schools before transitioning to an American institution.
I understand that when traveling abroad, many people prefer a local tour guide. While I wasn’t born in Japan, after nearly three decades here, I consider myself as local as it gets! Not only can I share insights about the local culture, but I can also offer a unique perspective as a foreigner who has grown to love this country as my own.
With our comfortable 4x4 full leather interior SUV, we’ll explore hidden gems that typical tour buses can’t reach, making your experience even more special.
On our way to the sites, I’ll describe anything that catches your eye so you don’t miss a thing. I know that returning back from a great trip can feel like the end of something special, so if there’s anything I can do to make the ride more enjoyable, just let me know. On the way back, feel free to play any music you like on the BOSE sound system in the car.

“Excellent and Knowledgeable ride with Steve”
We used Steve’s service today and it was truly excellent. Steve is very humble and incredibly knowledgeable, which made our ride feel safe and enjoyable from start to finish. We highly recommend his service and would be happy to ride with him again

“Visiting all of the One Piece Statues”
Steve was increadibly nice and charismatic and had insightful knowledge on both the local area which the statues are placed in as well as the paths between each statue. We had a great time chatting, and on the trip in general. We definitely recommend this tour to both One Piece fans, and people curious about Kumamoto. Thank you so much Steve! P.S: Best wishes to your mother in law!

Haha, you just had to mention that last part! Thank you for being such great guests. I’m still in shock about my motorbike and car, at least I was able to get her to pay for all that was done, even though it took some convincing! You know what I’m talking about.

“Wonderful Tour Experience ”
Steve is one of the most professional and fun tour guides we have experienced in Japan. We are frequent traveler and have visited Japan different regions in Japan in the past few years. There are many local English tour services in Japan, but I have not met someone like Steve who can share the local stories, life in Japan (over 30 years living in Japan), and secret attractions that you won't be able to find on the Internet (even for the local Japanese). If you are looking for an English speaking tour guide in Kumamoto prefecture, Steve is the guy you want to be with. You are not only getting the tour service with Steve, but you can also explore the culture, learning the language, and not to worry about missing any of the best photo spot during your trip with Steve. :)
