Hi, I’m Kalid, your local host in Osaka! What I love most about this city is its fascinating history and world-famous food scene. Osaka is a place where every corner has a story to tell and a delicious dish waiting to be discovered, making it a dream destination for anyone who loves culture and cuisine. I enjoy walking around the city, finding hidden gems and trying out new restaurants. Whether it’s a charming backstreet eatery or a vibrant local favorite, I’m always excited to share the best of Osaka’s food and atmosphere with visitors. With deep knowledge of neighborhoods like Namba, Umeda, and almost all of Osaka, I know the spots tourists love and the secrets they often miss. From bustling markets to quiet temples, there’s always something new and exciting to explore in this vibrant city!

    Kalid was friendly, communicative, knowledgeable and flexible to incorporate sights we wanted to experience that were off the beaten path. He ranks at the top of my favorite tour guides. I highly recommend experiencing Osaka with a tour and would request Kalid.

    We had great time during the tour. Khalid our tour guide was excellent. He was very attentive to our needs. I greatly appreciated that he took extra care of our grandmother who was traveling with us. He brought us to eat Osaka iconic foods of takoyaki, okonomiyaki, yakisoba, and kushiyaki. They were all delicious. We went to restaurants for locals as we asked which were great. We would have never found these restaurants on our own or be able to order the food due to language barrier. I would recommend the tour and Khalid.

    Khalid kindly met st our hotel to begin the tour that included explaining modern Osaka and buildings vs Japan history and formation at the Osaka Castle and grounds. Then trained to Abeno Harukas Tower to view the city from above (300m) and walked through Tennoji city parks, markets and food precincts ending at Dotonbori and Glico man.
