Hozenji tours

We absolutely loved Ukyo and our tour we did with him. it was informative and fun. He connected with all of us from 13yrs to 40yrs and showed us the best places to try foods and overall the best experience we have had in Osaka

I had two teenage boys and they enjoyed it a lot. we really liked having a Japanese guide. it was like going out with Auntie. the tour was flexible so we took extra time in one area which limited time in others. there was an option to extend time which was nice if you want to stop along the way. My only reason for doing 4/5 for value is it is labeled as a food tour but no food was included in the cost. It’s really a guided market tour. Well worth the cost for a guide because the markets are like a maze and Google/Apple maps aren’t great navigating markets or recommending best places to try speciality foods. I’d recommend for families or anyone who can get overwhelmed by the hundreds of options. total necessity in the heat of summer to have a guide.

One of the best walking tours we have done. The route (slightly different to that advertised) took us around the Namba and Dotonburi areas and showcased the diversity of all the local neighbourhoods. Our guide, Maria, was really engaging and told us lots of amazing facts and shared tips, knowledge and ideas we would never have gleaned from guide books alone. We loved every minute of the tour and would highly recommend.

very great experience … the driver was so nice .. good service… good communication.. they are always available to answer and give the best service .. me and the group are so happy … the tour was so great

"We had an amazing experience visiting Shirakawago and the Snow Wall! Everything was well organized, and the trip was smooth from start to finish. Shirakawago was absolutely beautiful with its traditional village scenery, and the Snow Wall was truly breathtaking — The atmosphere, views, and memories made this trip unforgettable. Thank you for the wonderful and great arrangement. Highly recommended! The break stops along the way were great, giving us time to rest, clean toilet stop, and make the trip more enjoyable. The accommodation was also very good — clean, comfortable, and pleasant after a long day of traveling.

Jun was a fantastic guide, extensive knowledge of Osaka and its history. I recommend this tour for all group sizes (solo traveling myself). Great opportunity to meet fellow travelers and share your Osaka and Japan experiences! Thanks again Jun!

The tour guide was a friendly and approachable gentleman who could communicate in Chinese. He proactively helped us take memorable photos and told us detailed stories about the local history. The children also really liked him. This was a great experience, and we were very happy to have met this tour guide.

Had a super time with Nic! All the shared anecdotes and his advice really enhanced our stay in Osaka.
