About Tour Guide Dan C.
Hi I’m a friendly Australian living in Japan for 20 years. I work as a Kindergarten teacher here so I design my tours to be very Family Friendly: stress free for the parents and exciting for the kids. I particularly love to make little packs filled with goodies for the kids so they can experience what Japanese kids do. I want my guests to experience a real Japan and I love teaching Japanese to the little ones. * Children with special needs and/or mobility issues are especially welcomed. I can make accommodations and plan a tour based on their unique needs.

“A Wonderful Tour with Dan!”
We had an incredible experience on our tour with Dan! From the very beginning, he greeted us with a warm smile, and we immediately knew it was going to be a fantastic day. Dan was extremely engaging and interactive, answering all our questions and providing insightful explanations about Japanese culture. My son especially enjoyed learning phrases in Japanese and collecting little treats throughout the day. Dan was fantastic with kids, creating a fun and educational atmosphere for everyone. His professionalism, friendliness, and knowledge of Tokyo made the day even more special. I highly recommend this tour, especially for families—it's the perfect introduction to Tokyo and Japan that caters to both adults and children!

“Perfect For Families”
From the day we booked him, 5 months ago, Dan has been very easy to communicate with and very responsive. He really listened to our specific needs and wants. I highly recommend him if you are looking for a family friendly tour guide! Our son has special needs and Dan made it a priority to connect with him and make him feel cared for. We were also able to ask him all kinds of questions, prior to our trip and of course as well as during our tours, and he would take the time to do some research if he already didn't know the answer. Overall, it felt like we were visiting the city with a friend. The only problem we had is something we can't control : the time flies way too fast! So, the more you communicated beforehand, the more you'll get out of it.
