Things to do in Kuromon Ichiba Market

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’ve taken a few tours so far and this one with Pedro has been the best ! he was very knowledgeable and patient. I had a great food tasting guided experience with him. The portions are perfect and you will get full at the end.

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.

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!

Niko was simply the most lovely tour guide; she was sweet, kind and very funny. She was also very knowledgeable and brought an already vibrant market scene to life. Highly recommended!!

we are a wonderful tour with our tour guide yesterday. lots of history information. smoothed transition from the station to other locations - our wood packing was incredible of a workshop.

The itinerary was good and we enjoyed all the stops ourselves. The driver/guide was friendly but there was no guided tour, it was pretty much a transportation service with minimal communication.

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!

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 😉!
