“Tour guide Dai”
I booked this experience mainly for my teenage sons. We had an amazing experience with our tour guide Dai on our first trip to Japan. Despite the rainy weather, he went above and beyond to make sure we had the best day. His positive attitude and dedication made all the difference. My teenage boys had a fantastic time, which says a lot! The gaming session he did with my boys—they absolutely loved it! He got along with them so naturally, and it was wonderful to see how engaged and excited they were throughout the tour. Everything ran so smoothly, and he was incredibly accommodating from start to finish. Dai also went above and beyond by recommending other great places for us to visit and even helped us navigate Tokyo's transport system. He stayed with us until we were departed back to our hotel, which we really appreciated. I would highly recommend him to anyone visiting Japan. Thank you for making our first Tokyo trip experience memorable.

Thank you for your detailed review! I would appreciate for your booking and time despite the heavy rain. To be honest, I wish I could spend more time with your family without a bad weather condition. All of you were nice to me, I even enjoyed the good lunch time together haha. Please let me know when you come back Japan again! :)

“Personal Day tour ”
Dai was great. Moulded our day tour to suit and was very happy to adjust the day to more reflect what we wanted to see. Even though we changed some places he was still very informative and gave us some great insight to history and traditions. The Lunch spots he took us too were also great, but again asked for our input onto what we wanted. His English was also very good. We felt very comfortable the whole time and would definitely do another tour with Dai.
