Wonderful - This tour was wonderful. The tour guide, Tommy, picked up my wife and me at our hotel and took us to her home, where we met her husband, Taka, and proceeded to have our calligraphy class and Matcha tea experience. Then Tommy insisted that we have lunch with her and Taka. Does it get any better than this! Yes! Tommy said she had a free afternoon and would be happy to take us to see some of the sites of Kumamoto. When Tommy dropped us off at our hotel after site seeing we all commented how we felt we were old friends. Bob and Shera Hiam
