“Dai is the best for new Visitors ”
3 of us from the US visited and for not knowing the language or how to operate trains or anything Dai was great! He patiently showed us how to operate the trains, even did a test run of a stop or 2, showed us how to act in bars and restaurants as well. Great guy, there were 3 of us it should be 3 5 star reviews but we can only give one. Dai rules ! He even met at at our hotel to relieve our anxiety. First impressions are everything and he showed us how compassionate and awesome Japan is. Excited for more.

“First time visiting Tokyo ”
I had an absolutely wonderful day with Dai as my guide. He took me to all the places I wanted to see — especially the fish markets, which were a highlight of my trip. Dai speaks excellent English and was a pleasure to spend the entire day with. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the city and knows exactly how to navigate it efficiently. What I appreciated most was that he brought me to places I never would have found on my own. One of the highlights was an outstanding omakase sushi experience — truly exceptional. It was a local spot with no tourists; I was the only American there, which made it feel even more authentic and special. Thank you, Dai, for such a memorable day and for introducing me to your wonderful city. I couldn’t have asked for a better guide.
