“Fantastic tour for the family ”

From the very first enquiry all the way through to the end of our tour with Dan, he was fantastic. He really catered for the kids - aged 4 and 5 (6 the following day!) and made the whole experience enjoyable. The kids loved it all and so did us adults. Dan was even really helpful in sourcing a birthday cake for my daughter’s birthday and he was loved by the children. We visited a number of places of interest and Dan offered to either meet us near our hotel or in shinjuku itself. His communication was brilliant and even tried to teach both children Japanese phrases, and offered Japanese snacks for the kids (always goes down well!). Would highly recommend booking Dan - whether you have kids or not. If you have children then definitely book him!
