Raul was a great guide! He was happy to give advice on where else to visit in Osaka and Kyoto too which was helpful. It's such a busy area it's nice to have a guide take you around the best spots and some more hidden gems. Since it was 2 hrs we had time to stop and buy some street food which was delicious. group size: 6 breaks: yes
I had a great time doing the hidden gems walking tour! I did do a little shopping before and ended up utilizing the lockers in the shopping centers before my tour started. I would recommend doing shopping after but I had time before my tour so I took advantage of that. Yuko did an amazing job at explaining culture, history and also recommending amazing food and other kitchen based shops! I would strongly recommend anyone who is interested in this tour to go ahead and book! Solo or with a group. The other group in my tour canceled so it ended up being a private tour which was really great! To mention again Yuko went above beyond!! I strongly recommend!
We had an amazing time exploring Osaka’s Dotonbori district with Raul! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience fun and memorable. He showed us around the lively streets, shared interesting facts about the area, and gave us a better appreciation for Osaka’s culture. It felt more like exploring the city with a friend than being on a guided tour. Definitely one of the highlights of our time in Osaka! Highly recommend Raul to anyone visiting!
Ryo was a great guide. He explained a lot to us and pointed out some really good restaurants around the area, as there are hundreds of them. I asked about one of the diners that he showed us by the end of the tour, and he helped me find it on Google Maps. It was indeed an amazing one. I always thought local guides are better; they love their city and country like none other. Ryo made some jokes that actually sounded very Japanese, which matched the vibe very well. My only concern was that I wished there was some time to have a break or to buy snacks, because it was late and I was hungry. I thought - by reading the description and other reviews - that there would be some time for that. Might be better to add in the description that there would be no time to eat at all so I could have been more prepared. If you’re booking the 9PM slot, make sure to have your dinner before the tour.
This Osaka walking tour was a fun way to spend our first night in Osaka! Our tour guide Erina was an awesome tour guide with an extensive knowledge of Osaka and it’s history. We were lucky with Erina as our tour guide as she took us to places that you wouldn't find on your own and experience Dontonburi as a local. We learned so much about the city and Japanese culture. She answered any questions the group had. We stopped at so many great spots to get delicious food and Erina even suggested places to try. I definitely recommend this tour to do and book with Erina if you can!
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
Steven is a very pleasant guide who takes the time to explain the tips and tricks of each neighborhood. He knows how to understand your expectations and meet them brilliantly. Kudos for his great mood and constant smile. A wonderful tour that I highly recommend!
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!
Our night tour with Mao was the absolute best. She showed us all of the areas and answered all of our questions. The food we sampled along the way was fantastic as well. Highly recommend booking with Mao if you can get her!
Jesse is a great and friendly tour guide, showing us lots of special places in Osaka, and gave us lots of local recommendations! He even treated us some chocolate, which was very kind of him! Highly recommend this tour!
