About Tour Guide Tim D.
I left Canada in 1998 for a 6-month stay in Japan—and never looked back. After two decades immersed in the culture of Osaka, I’ve spent the last six years mastering Tokyo’s hidden corners. As a scholar and educator, I bridge the gap between Japan’s legendary history and its modern culture and culinary scenes. I don’t just show you the city; I give you 25 years of lived perspective.

“Great evening in Tokyo!”
I greatly enjoyed my tour with Tim during my time in Tokyo. I had originally intended this to be a bit of orientation upon arrival, but as my plane arrived 4 hours late this wasn't possible. Fortunately, Tim had time at the end of my visit. As a result I enjoyed this experience 10X more than I would have fighting jetlag upon arrival. Tim's a long-time resident in Japan and I learned a great deal about Tokyo & life in the country. I am hoping to return to Tokyo & will certainly plan another tour with Tim.
