Karim took us around on a 4 hour tour of historical and cultural spots in Osaka. We had visited the castle the day before and therefore it was great to be able to customize the itinerary. Karim was well informed and set up a good itinerary for the full duration of the tour.

Karim has been helpful and planning the agenda. He also took the effort to connect 2 days before trip to plan and confirm interest. its a good trip to see highlights in 3 hours. will definitely more worthwhile to do 4-5 hours. thanks !
