Hi there! Nice to meet you

Max

Hi there! My name is Max, and I was born in Japan but raised in the UK. Since returning to Japan, I’ve made Osaka my home. As a bit of an urban explorer, I’m always discovering new spots and on the lookout for great places to eat. I work from home as a web developer, so I love any chance to get outside, explore the city, and meet visitors from around the world!

Max was super engaging through out the tour. We were not bored for a second. Got to learn about the Osaka castle and Osakas rich history. He customized the tour so it covered the areas we were interested in. He was super easy to talk to and answered all our questions. He gave us a lot of a lot places to explore and eat in our free time which was great.

Whether you are in Osaka for just a day like us for for several days, I highly recommend this walking tour with Max as a great way to get introduced to the city! Max completely catered our itinerary so that my family (including a teenager) could see the main highlights of the city by foot. He kept my son engaged and even helped us navigate a fun gaming arcade, past all the claw machines on the first few floors and introduced us to some fun and popular Japanese games like the drumming game which my son liked so much he sought it out at another arcade in Tokyo the next day. Max shared some history and cultural insight and took fabulous pictures at all the right spots along the way. He also provided some food and restaurant recommendations which were a big hit. Max has a very cool and laid back personality, was raised in England so his English is perfect and was a pleasure to spend three hours with. Highly recommend!Great way to get to know the city!

Max was great. Easy to communicate with in the lead up to the tour, and friendly throughout. He made a considerable effort to include stops that appealed to our kids which was appreciated and led to a better experience for everyone. The snippets of stories around the history of Osaka were brilliant. Would highly recommend Max for anyone coming to Osaka. Great Osaka Stroll

Max was just what we needed. We had already been exploring the area we chose for two days and Max was still able to bring us to spots we haven seen or heard of. He really worked with us to make it a great experience.

Max was a very thoughtful guide, very considerate, knowledgable, and super chill. We went at a comfortable pace and saw many of Osaka's top sights. Max took time to not only show us around but give us insight and recommendations for the rest of our trip. It was a wonderful experience we won't forget. Highly recommend.Wonderful First Tour in Osaka!
