About Tour Guide Dai A.

Hi, I'm Dai, a national licensed tour guide for people from all over the world.

I’m crazy about traveling around the world.

I’ve backpacked in over 150 countries.

So I'm proud of my traveling skills, flexibility and patience that I've ever experienced through my world-traveling.

I do believe one of the most important thing for travelers is to " EXPERIENCE ", such as doing something new, extraordinary and something you've never done before.

Also, I used to work at a hostel in Asakusa, so I'm quite familiar with Asakusa area.

I'd love to help international tourists enjoy their stay in Japan.

You can arrange your own itinerary as you like.

Please feel free to contact me anytime, if you have any questions.

I'm really looking forward to seeing YOU soon. Thank YOU.

Reviews

Saw what we agreed to, light on information

We agreed with Dai to see a few neighborhoods. He took us to all the places we had agreed to, and in that it was a great tour - he navigated the subways with us with ease. We were late but he was very gracious about it and we still saw everything on the original itinerary. He was not very talkative and walked ahead of us quickly unless we rushed to catch up to him. When we engaged him and asked questions he answered everything, so he does have a lot of knowledge. All in all we saw everything we wanted to on that day, we just wish there was more information and history provided.

Thank you so much for taking your precious time to write a review, Alexandra. I really appreciate it. And I had a great time with all of you. But I am sorry to hear that you have not been satisfied with my tour as you expected. I have to seriously accept your valuable opinions and use this experience for future my tour. Please take good care of yourself and give my best regards to your wonderful family.

Saw a lot but not the best first day

We took this 8 hour tour on our first full day in Japan to get acquainted with both the sites and culture. We saw a lot of the main highlights of Tokyo, as advertised, but I will caution that we spent about 60-90 minutes on the subway overall between stops, as they are very far apart, but we could have saved time if we had taken the JR lines instead (which I believe would have been pricier but we would have been happy to do if it had been offered as an option). Dai was nice, but did not talk much between stops or offer much information beyond what could be found in a guide book. We had a misunderstanding at one stop, but Dai was not able to helpfully moderate the situation and instead made us feel more uncomfortable about our mistake. I would say this experience was good for navigating a lot of the city in one day - though I’d probably recommend choosing a smaller footprint to cover - but unfortunately our tour was a little disappointing. Our tour also ended an hour early, as well, which was a surprise. We would have preferred to have the full 8 hours and expected our guide to be able to adjust to fill the remaining time.

Thank you for taking your precious time to write a review, Mabel. But unfortunately, seems like my tour was not good enough as you expected. I am so sorry to have disappointed you. I need to seriously accept your valuable opinions. And I want to use this experience and be helpful in my future job. I will try not to disappoint my customers again. Sincerely yours, Dai

8hrs with Dai 2025

Dai was the absolute best tour guide we could imagine. He whizzed us around the Metro with ease, we saw everything we wanted and more. He is very knowledgeable, fun and great to be around. It would have taken us a week to see what he showed us in 8hrs. It was a great pace, we didn’t feel rushed. It was a 10/10 experience. Thanks so much Dai.
