Daisuke-san is a extremely nice person. Not only customizing the itinerary of our tour in Yokohama and Kamakura, but making recommendations for the rest of our visit and answering all our questions regarding what best to consider being Traveller in Japan. The tour in Yokohama was excellent and we could end up together to a nice Robata Restaurant with a familiar atmosphere. Great experience!! The Kamakura Tour was very interesting. Daisuke is a friendly guide and very knowledgeable. Answering our many questions and sharing stories, about his traveling experience to other countries and we were happy to share memories from travelling in Latin-Amerika. As well we could talk in Spanish. Excellent Guide !
I am really glad you like the Robata restaurant! I remember every moment with you two. Thank you for sharing comments and hope we meet again!

Thank you for the message and I am really happy to have been with you two for two days. In every moment with you, unexpected happy weather, a lot of talk during trains, a surprising market in Yokohama and Robata! Those moments are unforgettable ones for me. I hope you could enjoy cherry blossoms in Hokkaido. I look forward to seeing you two again.
I enjoyed every single moment exploring and walking around Chichibu area with Daisuke. He made me feel so comfortable that we ended up sharing personal life stories and challenges unreservedly while having a great time visiting temples. He was a great traveling companion who paid attention to details and went extra miles to make sure my trip a memorable one. We had such a great time together despite the rains. I highly recommend Daisuke to anyone considering engaging a local guide in Japan, esp Tokyo and Chichibu area. He is the best guide I ever had! Daisuke, once again, thank you so much for making my Japan trip an unforgettable one!
You also gave me wonderful, unforgettable and joyful moments. I was really happy to be with you and I am so glad you enjoyed every activity and place on this tour. Hope we see again some day and let's have fun talk to open up again!
Daisuke was an amazing guide! He went above and beyond to ensure my comfort as well as being entertaining! His knowledge of Fuji-san and it’s surrounding made the tour fun as well as kept me occupied as my legs were getting tired on the long hike. Not only is he full of great facts, he is also a great person to talk to! I would say the highlight of my day with Daisuke was at the Chureito Pagoda, talking about movies and ghost stories while we waited for the clouds to part so we could see a better view of the mountain. It was a nice way to end the day before we headed back to the city. Although the weather was not in our favor to see the mountain, Daisuke made sure to show me other beautiful places and shrines that I wouldn’t see in the city. Daisuke was way more than a guide and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to explore Fuji-San or the Tokyo area.
I appreciate you commenting my tour. I am really happy to have been with you whole the day to have shared a lot of things and am also glad that this would be one of your precious memories during your stay in Japan. Hope we see again!
