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.

“The perfect way to see Tokyo with kids”
Our family of four (mum, dad and two girls 10 & 12 yrs old) had a wonderful time touring Tokyo with Dan! From the moment he introduced himself to the kids, they were engaged and excited for the tour. Dan went above and beyond to make girls feel special and thoroughly spoiled! From printing off cards with their names in Japanese, to sharing hand selected tasty Japanese snacks and treats and even giving them their own bags to carry all their goodies around for the day! While there were plenty of fun stops along the way to keep the kids entertained, they also loved learning to use Japanese and being given challenges to interact with locals using the new phrases. They also enjoyed learning about Japanese history and traditions by playing fun games that Dan had created. Overall, this tour is absolutely perfect for any families wanting to see some of Tokyo’s highlights - with the confidence that their kids will enjoy the experience as much as they will! Highly recommend!

“An Amazing Tour for Families with Kids”
We have done the tour with Dan on our very first day and we were very lucky to do it that way! He has shown us the highlights of Tokyo and made sure the kids were engaged all throughout the tour. He was very energetic and fun. Highly recommended for all families with kids who visit Tokyo!
