Hi! I'm Kieran, your go-to person for all things Osaka. With a heart full of humor and warmth, I find joy in the city's vibrant nightlife and the outgoing spirit of its people. Osaka, to me, is a mix of colorful experiences, from its enchanting parks that offer a serene escape to the endless adventures waiting in its bustling streets. I'm all about diving into new culinary experiences, chatting up locals in cozy bars, and uncovering the eccentricities that make Osaka unique. My love for this city deepens with every historical tale I uncover, making each corner of Osaka feel like a page out of a living history book. Whether you're craving the best street food in Shinsekai or looking for picturesque routes through Osaka Jo Koen, I'm here to guide you through the cultural powerhouse that is Osaka. Let's make your visit unforgettable!

Kieran is an exceptional tour guide. I have been on many tours around the world and this was the best one I have been on. There was a mixup on where we were supposed to meet and he made the effort to go out of his way about 25 minutes to find me. We then spent almost 8 hours together, and I learned so much about the history and culture of both Osaka and Japan. Kieran is Canadian so the conversation in English was easy and understandable. He is also a foodie which helped make our day enjoyable. He is really a nice enjoyable guy.

We had so much fun with Kieran. He was very knowledgeable about all of the food and. Neighborhoods. We tried out a broad range of Japanese food (Kobe beef was my favorite) and drink (we went to a cool whiskey bar and had some great Japanese whiskey). We also checked out some cool markets and shopping areas. He was so flexible and friendly and just really cool to hang out with. Absolutely our best experience so far in Japan on this trip. Thanks Kieran.

Our guide Kieran went the extra mile and catered the itinerary based on our interests and stamina. It was blazing hot in Osaka so it was really hard work for him (and us, too) :)

Extra effort to find out our interests and bringing us to the spots. Along the way, spicing up the journey with nuggets of stories. Kieran comes across as a sincere and hardworking chap. Unassuming and accommodating. Highly recommended.
