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.

“Dai is great!”
Our whole family, including two teenage boys, loved our tour with Dai. He was a consummate professional. He taught us about temples and shrines, but knew the spots and took photos of our family, helped us try interesting snacks and food. He was funny and the boys really liked him. He really knew what he was doing and also just a good guy.

“Tokyo touring”
Our group of 7 used Dai as a private guide for one full day of touring in Tokyo while visiting in April 2026. Dai worked with us in developing a plan to visit the different sites that we were interested in. He met us at our hotel first thing in the morning, and we walked, took the subway and trains to get around Tokyo. Dai did a great job in providing information about the different sites we saw during our time with him in Tokyo. At a market he directed us to a seller that had items that some of us were interested in buying. We all thought he did a great job and would highly recommend using Dai.

“A day full of adventure combined with learning local customs taking in the sights. Most amazing guide ever ”
We had the most incredible experience in Japan thanks to our amazing tour guide Dai. From the moment we met, he was warm, knowledgeable, organised, and genuinely passionate about sharing the beauty and culture of Japan. Our day was thoughtfully planned, balancing famous sights with hidden local gems we never would have discovered on our own. Dai’s knowledge of Japanese history, traditions, food, and local customs made every experience so much richer and more meaningful. Dai was also incredibly patient, helpful, and attentive. What truly stood out was his ability to turn a day into an unforgettable experience filled with laughter, learning, and wonderful memories. We felt completely looked after from start to finish. If you’re travelling to Japan and want an authentic, seamless, and memorable adventure, we could not recommend Dai more highly. Thank you for making our trip so special, we will treasure these memories forever! Also thank you for your extra help in sourcing a specific knife for our son who is a head chef in Australia.
