Osaka Food Tour

Enjoyable and informative walk. I would recommend it.

I would highly recommend our tour guide Jay if you ever have an opportunity to step on this walking tour. Having travelled to many countries and cities globally and an active walking tour participant, I can tell you with immense confidence that the 2-3 hours with Jay would be one of the best investments of your time in Osaka. I learned so much about Osaka from ancient history to its modern development. The tour itself felt both informative and entertaining, which is a challenging balance to achieve sometimes, but Jay delivered brilliantly. The route was thoughtfully curated, but more importantly, Jay was incredibly witty. His multicultural background truly enabled him to connect with a diverse audience, turning his storytelling into something far more meaningful than simple translation - it was relatable and deeply resonant with each person's culture.

Great tour combining the history of Osaka with the experiences of the current residents. Kelvin gave great recommendations throughout on places to shop (including the knife store he uses as he studies to be a chef) and eat. I absolutely recommend taking this tour as an intro to Osaka!

Too much downtime, the tour could’ve been an hour quicker if we didn’t stand around so much doing nothing

De donkere kant van Osaka. De buurt die achter gesteld werd/is door de regering. Waar mensen verblijven onder aan de sociale ladder. De rose buurt, die wel/niet mag bestaan. Er werd ons heel veel verteld. Erg leuke tour en geweldige gids

Matt gave us a wonderful overview of downtown Osaka. His knowledge of the area, visits of key sites, and recommendations on places to eat were well appreciated.

German gave an informative and interesting tour highlighting key aspects of Osaka's famous district. He was kind, friendly and generous. Thank you!

Um ótimo tour passando pelos principais pontos de Dotombori e Shinsekai, contando a história de cada um dos pontos desses bairros. Matt foi um ótimo guia, possui inglês nativo, já mora em Osaka há bastante tempo e conhece muito da história da cidade. Suas recomendações culinárias foram perfeitas e muito úteis nos dias seguintes em que estivemos em Osaka. Dito isso, algumas questões: a rota utilizada é um pouco diferente da rota apresentada no site, o que pode te confundir um pouco caso você planeje suas próximas atividades a partir do roteiro apresentado aqui no site. Além disso, o prospecto do tour nos levou a pensar que seria um tour gastronômico, com paradas para comer, o que não é a proposta do tour - são feitas apenas indicações, sem que haja tempo para degustar os pratos citados. No entanto, caso você alinhe as suas expectativas com o que o tour realmente oferece, é um ótimo tour.

Matt was extremely helpful helping us find places to eat after the tour that he had recommended during the tour

Very cool, knowledgeable and friendly person. Absolutely loved him.

We had an amazing walk with Rico - he was funny, informative, patient and explained the history of Osaka in a fun and engaging way! Thank you (ookini) Rico for a very fun walk through Osaka

Recomiendo para ver todo los puntos claves de la ciudad

This walking tour was such a wonderful way to experience Osaka. Jay was very knowledgeable and made every stop interesting with stories, history, and local tips. We loved listening to the little stories at every stop. We walked away with a deeper appreciation for the culture and the people. Highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants more than just sightseeing.

Matt was super informative, engaging, a great story teller & full of tips! Thanks for showing us around on our very first morning!

Lila was a fantastic lively tour guide. Her route was fabulous and covered so many great areas. Her explanations were great and we learned so much.

Lila was very informative and moved at a good pace. We all enjoyed the 2.5 hours spent with Lila.

This was a very good tour to get an overview of the main tourist area in Osaka. Our tour guide was very informative and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this tour for first time visitors to Osaka

Kelvin our guide was fantastic! He had a depth of knowledge about Osaka that was beyond our expectations. We loved the tour and the information discussed 5 stars Kelvin!!!

Our Osaka Localized tour was fantastic. Even though we arrived slightly behind schedule, our guide didn’t make a fuss at all and smoothly integrated us into the group. What stood out was how naturally he mixed history, local stories, and practical advice. He gave us some of the best recommendations for classic Osaka foods and quirky local shops. Plus, the little “hidden” facts he shared added a whole new layer to exploring the city.

Our guide was great, had good bits of information to share with us throughout the walk, including some nice burger/ramen/okonomiyaki spots.
