About Tour Guide Dai A.
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.

“Fantastic Tokyo Tour with Dai!”
We had a wonderful day exploring Tokyo with Dai! He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and flexible throughout the tour. The itinerary was well planned, combining famous landmarks with local hidden gems, and he made sure everything ran smoothly and comfortably for our group. We really enjoyed his stories, sense of humor, and the relaxed atmosphere he created. It was a perfect balance of sightseeing, culture, and fun. We truly recommend Dai to anyone visiting Tokyo!

Thank you so much for giving me such a thoughtful review, Ahu. I also had a great time together with all of you. It was so much fun to walk around and talk with you. And I really appreciate your help, understanding and cooperation during the tour. Especially, you are a group of 8 people and some of them don’t understand English very much. That was so helpful. I hope you will have a fantastic cruise all over Japan. Please take good care of yourself and give my best regards to your wonderful family. Thanks a million!!!

Tokyo,Now &Then
Tokyo is a modern metropolitan city built on an ancient Edo, where Tokugawa samurai government was settled. Even now we can find old relics of ancient Edo among truly modern Tokyo streets. Asakusa, Ueno and the Imperial Palace itself are some of the examples. Let’s explore Tokyo with me and find the soul of Japan.
