Wonderful day around Osaka
First day in Osaka and hoping to get a quick overview of city as only had a couple of days. Naoki was truly enjoyable to be around and learn more about him and this wonderful city. We ended the day with local favorite foods at a place he and his friends hung out at when younger and the food was great. Highly recommend.

Delicious Delights of Osaka
A fantastic private food and drink tasting tour with Hiromi. She was very informative and the tour was fun and tailored to us as a group based on our initial hat and discussions throughout the tour. A great way to spend an evening.

Love Hiromi, the food and the experience
Hiromi took us to places visited by locals that we will probably have never notice or have known of. The food was absolutely delicious and she was very relatable. She also made suggestions for future visits to Osaka. Love Hiromi!

Miso hungry, miso full!
Simone was a lively, well-informed, and joyful tour guide. Not only did he bring us to great places to eat, but showed us a bit of the vast history of Osaka. We loved walking down the streets with him and cracking jokes while eating gyoza. Book Simone if possible! His Japanese is great which was very helpful in getting around. We will be keeping in touch with him! Thanks, Simone!!!

Outstanding
Naoki is an outstanding guide and is incredibly friendly and full of knowledge about the city, the country, history and much more. You can feel that he loves his job and you always get useful little bits of information in passing. He speaks perfect and clear English, which makes listening and communicating super easy.
Thank you very much, Naoki, for the great time with you!
