Informative tour - It is not a food guide tour, but a very informative tour to step up your knowledge of Osaka in general. Not only.Kaori-san was gracious and informative, but well prepared for bad weather as well which we appreciated . We enjoyed her tour very much.

Very interesting walking tour in Osaka, loved it, highly recommended - My wife and I visited Osaka in March 2025 just for a day so the time was very limited. This tour was perfect because our guide, Ishiro (Ishisan), show us the landmarks of the city with the respective history, the traditional and the new, took us to sample kushikatsu and the soft drink ramune (lemonade soda), and he went above and beyond by showing us the Osaka castle and guide us in the Osaka station to get on the right train to the airport. I loved the tour and would highly recommend it.

The most wholesome tour of Osaka - We had a very good tour experience with our private guide Mr. Ichiro Ando. He met us in our hotel in the morning and then we walked from our Hotel to the nearest metro station on our first stop -
1. Osaka Castle - We covered the whole building - all the floors which have museum access. We learnt about different wars fought within Japan and how the imperial nation went through different changes in leadership.
2. Tenjinbashi Suji - Osaka's longest shopping street. Walking through this street is a big task since its ~3km walking street. Here there are a lot of shops selling seafood, clothes and everything you can think of. So a good pair of walking shoes will definitely help.
3. Tenmangu Shrine - Its a very peaceful shrine. Its common for students to visit this shrine and pray for scoring well in the exams.
Our guide explained the history about the castle and Japan very well with the help of photos. He engaged us with his good story telling ability. We had so many questions about and Japan and how its culture developed. He didn't mind our questions and Mr. Ando being 72 years young and proud of Japan, answered all our questions with boundless enthusiasm.
Thanks Ichiro. Hope to meet you soon.

Osaka in a 3- hour capsule - What better way than to see and get 1st hand tips during a 3- hour walking tour with Kao- chan. It was simply a snapshot with no tinge of haste, Kao- chan gave us an impressive performance of her guiding skills by ensuring that we understood what was said.
We were simply lucky that we , mother and son, were the only ones in the tour hence, a personalized one ! No time wasted. Worthy value!

Not worth it! - Walking around a train station. Then you must oay for your own ticket to go to other side if town (Namba). Walking around market streets, stop for a snack- beef /pork /chicken/potato on a stick and a soft drink. More walking thru market streets. Then left to find own way back. 😪
