I am a Freelance Tour Guide
Hello there! My name is Kiriko, and I am a proud local host in the vibrant city of Osaka. I love everything this city offers, from its diverse food and drink options to its unique people and culture. In my free time, you can find me hanging out with friends, trying new restaurants and bars, and exploring different neighborhoods to discover hidden gems. I especially love going out at night to experience the city's lively party scene. I am very familiar with the Kita area, Minami area, Tennoji, and Shinsekai areas, and I am always eager to share my knowledge of these areas with my guests. I am also a certified tour guide, so I have a wealth of knowledge about all the city's major tourist attractions, food and drink scenes, nature and outdoor activities, and local culture and history. As a local host, I aim to help my guests have the best possible experience in Osaka. Whether you're interested in trying new foods, exploring the city's rich history, or just having a good time with friends, I am here to help. So let's get out and experience everything that Osaka has to offer!
