Chris Nilghe aka TDR Explorer

Chris Nilghe, founder of TDR Explorer

I’m Chris, founder of TDR Explorer. I’m a small-town prairie boy from Saskatchewan, Canada, who took a leap and moved to Tokyo. Japan is where I began to love sharing my knowledge of travel through writing, video, and podcasting. With a rapidly growing audience, I created a new company dedicated to helping travellers with an interest in theme parks and travel to Asia.

TDR Explorer is a travel brand based in Tokyo, Japan. Since starting in 2009 as a humble blog, we’ve evolved into a trusted travel brand associated with theme parks in Asia (Disney Parks & Universal Studios) and other destinations.
