What you’ll do

For a truly authentic Osakan experience, you could kick things off with a butt-naked scrub down at a traditional sento, where locals freshen up before some well-deserved hashigo zake, or bar hopping, as we know it. Your local insider has the scoop on hideouts like Hozenji Yokocho and the maze of bars in Tenma, and will make up for any language barriers.

The local patrons of Osaka’s izakaya will happily talk to you all night - even if you don’t speak Japanese! Your host will effortlessly order plates of dishes like kushikatsu as you pour sake for one another, then feed your sake-induced insomnia with gyoza pork dumplings and some karaoke, or end your experience slurping ramen on the way home - just like a true local!

Vivien Jun 2025

Ich habe die Tour kurzfristig gebucht da ich fasziniert war von den abendlichen Lichtern und Eindrücken Japans. Mein Tour Guide Fumiko hat mich an super Plätze geführt. Obwohl die Tour eher für das Nachtleben ausgelegt war hat sie sich Zeit genommen mir versteckte Orte und Gassen zu zeigen wo ich super Bilder machen kann und mir dazu noch viel Tips und Anregungen mitgegeben. Ich habe die Tour wirklich genossen und wunderschöne Plätze gesehen die ich selbst nicht gefunden hätte. I booked the tour at short notice because I was fascinated by the evening lights and impressions of Japan. My tour guide, Fumiko, took me to some amazing places. Although the tour was more focused on the nightlife, she took the time to show me hidden spots and alleys where I could take great photos and gave me lots of tips and suggestions. I really enjoyed the tour and saw beautiful places I wouldn't have found on my own.

It was an awesome tour with Fumiko. It was a last minute booking and normally the tour was about night life and bars . But I ask for a bit of hidden gems for photos and she did not disappoint. We found some amazing views and narrow streets where I could take wonderful pictures. We had some lokal snacks and it was beautiful. Thank you so much again
