Hi, I'm Dai, a national licensed tour guide for people from all over the world.
I’m crazy about traveling around the world.
I’ve backpacked in over 150 countries.
So I'm proud of my traveling skills, flexibility and patience that I've ever experienced through my world-traveling.
I do believe one of the most important thing for travelers is to " EXPERIENCE ", such as doing something new, extraordinary and something you've never done before.
Also, I used to work at a hostel in Asakusa, so I'm quite familiar with Asakusa area.
I'd love to help international tourists enjoy their stay in Japan.
You can arrange your own itinerary as you like.
Please feel free to contact me anytime, if you have any questions.
I'm really looking forward to seeing YOU soon. Thank YOU.

“Great day!”
Dai helped us navigate the market and we ate some great food! He also gave us a great overview of many other sites, food stalls and background of the history as well as helped us take some great group photos. We enjoyed our time with him!

Thank you so much for giving me a great review, Angie. I also enjoyed walking around and talking with all of you. I was so glad to see that you guys really enjoyed Wagyu beef and some of great seafood at Tsukiji Outer Market. Even though it was just 4-hour half day tour, that was amazing. I believe you guys had a wonderful time in Tokyo and other beautiful cities in Japan after my tour as well. Please take good care of yourself and give my best regards to your super wonderful family. Thanks a million!!!

“2 Days Tokyo tour”
This was my second time hiring Dai as my guide. He helped me and my friends experience Tokyo 5 years ago. This time, I was with my family- 2 adults /2 kids(15 & 13). Would definitely recommend hiring Dai to all my close friends and family. Made seeing the top sites very enjoyable. 0 stress and no thinking involved. Just follow Dai. We split the top sites into 2 days so he made an itinerary that was easy flowing. He was very good with the kids as well. Catered to what they wanted to do. Would definitely recommend hiring Dai!

Your children are really smart and super awesome. You should be proud of them. I just simply enjoyed the tour. I believe you had a great time in Japan with your family this time. Please take good care of yourself and give my best regards to your super wonderful family. Thanks a million!!!
