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.

“Megacity day tour with Dai”
The thought of exploring Tokyo seemed quite daunting to my family and I. So, I decided to hire a local to help us. We had the pleasure of discovering Tokyo with our guide, Dai, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience. Dai was incredibly knowledgeable and shared fascinating insights about the city’s history, culture, and hidden gems. Our tour included iconic spots like Shibuya Crossing, where Dai brought the energy and stories of the world’s busiest intersection to life, as well as Akihabara, where he explained the unique subcultures and guided us through the vibrant streets. What made the day so special was Dai’s warm personality and his ability to make the experience both fun and informative. He tailored the pace perfectly, answered all our questions, and gave us recommendations we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. If you’re looking for a guide who can combine expert knowledge with genuine hospitality, Dai is the perfect choice. Highly recommended!

Tokyo One-day As You Like with Kaori
This tour fits all, from first timers to repeaters who love local experiences. You can choose what you like from spots listed, or I can pick up for you if you don't have clue. Just let me know your preferences. I can make a good combination of old and modern, major and local. Tokyo has a lot more besides the list. As full day tour (up to 8h), please pick up 3 or 4 spots. Or you can request specific spot not on the list. "Enjoy together with fun learning" is what you can expect with me.
