Hello there! I'm Loys, your friendly local host here in the vibrant heart of Osaka. I'm head over heels for Osaka's street food scene. There's something magical about the sizzle of takoyaki grills and the aroma of okonomiyaki wafting through the air. From savory yakitori skewers to the sweet embrace of taiyaki, I've explored it all. And trust me, I know all the hidden gems and local joints that serve these delectable treats. But Osaka isn't just about the food; it's a city that pulses with culture. Whether it's the ancient traditions or the modern creativity, I've immersed myself in it all. Markets and shopping? Osaka's got you covered, and I'll happily guide you through the bustling stalls of Kuromon Ichiba Market or the trendy boutiques in Shinsaibashi. So, let's embark on an unforgettable journey together and create memories in Osaka!

Great tour to get a taste of Osaka. We enjoyed the castle, a great curry lunch, and wonderful hot chocolate.

Loys did an amazing job navigating us through the city. His knowledge and insights were great. Took us to some places we would have never found on our own. Gave us plenty of bathroom breaks which was appreciated. He had a great personality and our group enjoyed having him as our guide.

Loys took the time to give us some history regarding Osaka and its modern day architecture, particularly the Osaka Castle. We were able to visit some great food and shopping areas as well, which Loys crafted to our liking. Would highly recommend!
