Kaito (Kai) Tanaka
Kaito (Kai) Tanaka is a Tokyo-based travel writer and tourism industry insider. With over 10 years of experience at a leading Japanese tourism company, he combines professional expertise in travel logistics with a passion for local exploration.
He spends his weekends conducting field research to test routes in the real world, check timings, and spot the small details that make a day trip smoother (or surprisingly stressful). Kaito believes the best day trips are like a perfect kaiseki meal: a beautiful balance of precise planning and wonderful, seasonal discovery.
What I publish
- Train-based day trip guides designed to be realistic, copyable, and easy to follow
- Private tour breakdowns that clarify what you actually get, who it’s for, and what to watch out for
How I research and update
- Official sources first (rail operators, official tourism sites, and venue websites)
- Timing checks and route “reality tests” whenever possible
- Updates when key logistics change (hours, access, tickets, seasonal notes)
