Thank you for reading my profile.
I am Mai living in Kumamoto, Kyusyu. I grew up in Kumamoto and studied and worked in overseas, such as China, America, South America and Europe for the F&B and food business. Also I used to work as Kurabito (Japanese sake brewer) in the traditional sake brewery.
So If you are looking for somebody, bring you to the best gourmet spots that are not in guide book, please contact me. I am the Sake sommelier, so if you are interested to experience and understand Japanese sake and culture, especially for I can be your guide.
All my life until now I practice martial arts such as Kendo and Iaido.
If you are Katana (Japanese sword) or martial arts lover, I can guide you to the right place.
Beside of food and sword, Kumamoto has breathtaking nature and verity of Onsen.
If you are interested, please contact me.
I will be your best guide for Kumamoto.
English and casual conversation of Chinese is available.
“Great guide ”
Mai-san opened up her schedule for us on short notice and was able to accomodate us to visit all 10 One Piece statues in one day. I highly recommend a guide such as her because some of the statues are hard to get to and the place where they sell the figures can be hard to figure out. She will help you get to them and help you buy them since she is a local, I can't recommend her enough if you are a One Piece fan!

There are so many things you can visit about One Piece in Kumamoto except 10 statues. So please come back here again and waiting for your next visit!! Thank you very much again. Mai
“Best experience in Japan!!!”
Mai is the absolute best!!!! Not only does she make seeing all the one piece statues easy, she provides In Depth knowledge of the Kyushu region. It was so fun to learn about the rich history of Kumamoto. The country side is soooo beautiful and more people need to visit it. It’s indescribable. Mai is very accommodating, respectful, and fun! She made sure I was comfortable the whole time and even made time for us to get food. Speaking of which, please take her recommendations as she showed me the best ice cream I’ve ever had and best ramen I’ve ever had! She is so knowledgeable in so many things and really made the experience one of my favorites. I plan to reach out to Mai again the next time I’m back in Japan as this felt like I was really seeing Japan and seeing the beloved One Piece statues. Mai is also an expert in sake so please reach out to her about that as well! 本当にありがとう!

“5-star service!”
I rarely write reviews, however, this service was 5-star all the way. The One-Piece statue tour was phenomenal and we still had time to enjoy lunch at Mt. Aso. We decided to add a driver and a larger car (well worth the extra cost). Mai communicates very well and is extremely knowledgeable about the Kumamoto area (ask her about sake). My daughter and I spent a lovely day with this service. Thank you, Mai and GoWithGuide.
