Tour description

Japan is a seemingly perfect country, never showing a single wrinkle in its clothing, but described in Japanese with the expression "tatemae," there are times when all this is a facade to hide the truth.

Immerse yourself in the local culture with us and explore a different Osaka. We'll start in Namba, one of the busiest and most commercial districts, and join us on this journey to Nishinari, Osaka's poorest district and home to the homeless, the red-light district, and not-so-legal "family" organizations that like dragon tattoos on their backs.

Thanks to this tour you will be able to understand Japan and the Japanese much better!

Note : Due to the content and topics covered, this tour may not be recommended for minors under the age of 18. When visiting Osaka's red-light district, the guide reserves the right to prevent minors from entering the red-light district for their safety.
