“7 hour T?ky? tour”
Dai was fantastic! His knowledge of the history and experience navigating the subway system was exceptional. Our 3 daughters loved the tour especially through the seafood markets sampling all of what’s on offer. A great way to see some of the best attractions especially if you don’t have long!

(236 reviews)Thank you so much for giving me such a considerate review, Al. I really appreciate it. I’m so glad to hear that all of your family enjoyed my tour. I had a great time with all of you.

Please take good care of yourself and give my best regards to your awesome family including 3 beautiful princesses. Thanks a million!!! Cheers mate!!!
“A wealth of knowledge!”
I have quoted Dai extensively since my tour with him. I learned so much that another tour guide two days later in Kyoto said ‘Wow your guide in Tokyo really taught you a lot!!’ Additionally, as a solo female traveler it is important that I feel comfortable with my guide and Dai took care to make sure that I was comfortable and at ease. I highly recommend him, he is a font of knowledge and enjoys sharing it! You will be in good hands with Dai- whether in a group or as a solo traveler!
