Hi, I’m Taiga

(15)

I’ve lived in Osaka for 23 years

I speak English, Mandarin, Japanese

Having visited to lots of places as solo travel all over Japan, I have a wide range of knowledge for many locations. As for Osaka, I look forward to sharing with you all of its highlights, as well as hidden treasures. I used to work in the educational field, and I am a big fan of history and outdoor activities. Recently, I have been educating myself about whiskey and local food. My favorite activities are baseball, golf, marine sports, ski, camping, hiking and so forth. I can take you to have some local street food, experience "izakaya" (Japanese style pubs), and more! Also, I am a nature-lover so if you are interested in playing golf, hiking or natural hot springs (onsen), I am the one to be with you. Are you ready to join me for your upcoming adventure in Osaka?

My reviews

    Five star experience! Our guide, Taiga, kindly met us at our hotel instead of the designated meeting place, and from there, we went on a tailored food tour based on our dietary preferences and the areas we were interested in seeing. Taiga was also thoroughly entertaining and very friendly. We learned that he is very well traveled, and we had an excellent time hanging out with him, learning about the places we visited, and experiencing delicious Osaka cuisine.

    Taiga was very engaging and very flexible throughout our walk. We asked to go in a grocery store and he obliged and we taught each other some things! Tried 3 different foods items and learned some etiquette on local dining. Would highly recommend him as your guide!

    So much fun, Tiaga was a wonderful guide, we tried some of Osaka snacks and walked the streets of Shinsekai and saw the tower, we also went right up to the top to some beautiful views of the city. We tried our luck at shooting at a game to win some lollies and tried our had and archery. We had a 4 hour tour and wished it was longer !!!
