Traveler Reviews

We decided this on a whim. A great night had and the places were unique and daring. The guide was more than welcoming and friendly so it was a no brainer that it was exciting, adventurous and stupendous. Recommended!!

Just being amongst these backstreets filled me with curiosity- I didn’t feel there was such a place in Osaka. A highlight of my stay in Osaka and ill recommend it to all my friends. If you want a genuine Osaka experience go in this tour!

This was an excellent and unique history/food walking tour, one you are unlikely to duplicate anywhere in Japan. Andy brought the history, culture and local cuisine alive by taking us to lesser known parts of Osaka. As we walked through hidden parts of Osaka we explored how Japan’s past has influenced Osaka’s current day culture, food and architecture. Andy was very in tune with our group and eager to answer any questions we had. And, of course the food was delicious! I highly recommend this tour. It won’t overlap or duplicate any other tour. It was a lovely evening walking, exploring, trying new foods, meeting new people all while seeing how the past has influenced present day Osaka.

Definitely great tour. We’ll informed and easy to talk to guide that knowledges you and shows you more in depth of what the streets of Osaka are like. Was my first time visiting Osaka and definitely learned some things and would recommend to first time visitors!

Such a great time! We had such a great night. Great amount of knowledge and fun from the tour guide!
