Dotonbori tours

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 was truly impressed with this trip. Every place we visited was absolutely beautiful. The guide took great care of us and gave us enough time at each destination to fully enjoy and soak in the atmosphere. The travel time between each stop was just right, and I loved every destination along the way. I would definitely love to come back and take this trip again!

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.

Kyoto city was really crowded. Even places like Arashiyama had many more people than before. So, I looked for a less crowded place in the suburbs and found this spot. The scenery was beautiful, and it was great to travel comfortably by bus for long distances. Guide Lee Song-ran gave interesting explanations, and best of all, we could communicate in Korean, which was a huge plus. For those of us traveling alone, she took photos without us even having to ask, and I was so happy to get some beautiful pictures at Ine Funaya. I hadn't booked the lift and cruise due to weather concerns, but she collectively checked with everyone on the bus and purchased tickets for us, which was very convenient since I didn't have to do it myself. At Amanohashidate, there was a place selling sushi lunchboxes, but it apparently required advance reservations. I found out too late after eating, which was a bit disappointing. Although it was a group tour, and the schedule felt a bit tight, overall, it was a fulfilling and enjoyable trip. It was also great that we could depart from Kyoto. There were tours that departed earlier, but I appreciated that this tour didn't require us to rush too much in the morning.

This tour includes multiple places to visit. We chose the private tour for 2. Yukiko did an excellent job taking us around Osaka. She adjusted the tour to meet our expectations. She recommended restaurants and other destinations. We highly recommend this tour.

Excellent walking tour with an English-speaking tour guide. He explained the historical places we visited and answered all our questions, and he handled all the tickets needed to enter the castle and shrine. No problem getting them because the tour guide taught us what to do, so no long lines for the tickets. Highly recommend 😉!

Ferdinand was awesome, super knowledgeable and very friendly and interactive with the kids

we had a very nice time with Yukari on our tour. she was very patient and understanding. she asked us what we wanted our tour to be like and was very flexible and took us to the places we wanted to go and we learned about history of Osaka. without her we would’ve been lost so she was more than nice company. thank you Yukari!

We had a fun tour with our guide Takeshi. He showed us areas which we normally wouldn't know about or find out. He gave us some useful tips and some historical facts. We had this tour the day after our arrival! Recommended if you are for the first time in Japan!
