Tokyo Tour Reviews
“Tokyo must-see places ”
We had a fantastic day with Dai, although the weather was not the best, we enjoyed every minute of our tour (and it was an 8-hour tour!!) Dai contacted us as soon as we booked the tour to arrange the itinerary and lunch. He picked us up on our hotel on time and took us to all the places efficiently by metro. He provided information of the places and explained the Japanese culture to us in detail. He made sure we were well along the tour. He took us to eat lunch at a local place where we could enjoy great food. Dai was very kind and friendly and we were very comfortable with him. He even helped us taking pictures of us to make great memories. We highly recommend Dai for any tour in Tokyo. You will not be disappointed!!!

Muchas gracias amigos!!! Nos vemos pronto!!! Chao!!!
“Smoothly Organized and Informative ”
Four of us were accompanied by Dai for four hours that went by very quickly. Dai explained the sights on the itinerary, their history and relevance in a clear way. He led us through the subway system and explained how to use the ticket vending machines. He recommended restaurants in the area of our hotel and we made use of the information, to much delight. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Dai to any of our friends.

(226 reviews)Thank you so much for a thoughtful review, Robert. It was really nice meeting you guys. I had a pleasant time with four of you. I was actually surprised and really happy that you and your wife knew a lot of Japanese culture. I believe you could enjoy your cruise trip and stays in Japan. I hope you will come back to Japan again in the future and visit other beautiful cities as well. Please take good care of yourself and give my best regards to your wonderful family and friends. Thanks a million!!!
“Simply great!”
Dai did what every great guide do and then some. He really cared for his guest. He made sure that we were able to visit all the places we requested to see for the 4 hour long tour. He always made sure that we were okay and not struggling as the tour progressed aware that my wife and I have knee problems. He was very detailed in his description of the various sites we visited. He helped us look for items at the Akihabara for our children who are very much into anime. We even stopped at Imo Pippi, as per my request, to savor their famous baked potatoes. He also made sure that we made it to teamLab Planets for our scheduled time to view the show . He delivered us to the front door with lots of time to spare. As the tour progressed, we conversed in a very familiar-like way. It made for a very comfortable inter-action between us. Overall, we highly recommend his services for any tour that he offers.
