Reviews of Our Osaka Experiences
Mich made thentour memorable by tailoring the experience to our tastes. We tried a variety of street food and she added a unique ramen place based on our discussion - we were happy she was able to pivot so easily. We enjoyed the history and the variety of food options.
Read moreWe had an amazing day in Osaka, made all the more special by Kanna. She introduced us to many local dishes which were delicious and showed us some special hidden local sites. Thanks so much Kanna. Highly recommend.

Read moreLoys was a delight. We got exactly what we hoped for: authentic food experiences at places we would have never found (or stopped to try). His familiarity with the city and culture gave great context, and we found that we really appreciated the perspective he could provide as an expat who has lived here for 22 years. Loys remembered from the survey that our daughter doesn't eat much seafood and crafted the stops to include places she would enjoy as well. He also accommodated our request to find specific shopping sites, and his fluent Japanese allowed us to use our time efficiently and get exactly what we hoped for. 10/10. Five Stars!
Read moreMaria was absolutely phenomenal as a guide through Osaka! She was so warm, easygoing, and a joy to spend the day with. She definitely knows the city inside and out, and knew exactly where to take us after finding out what we were interested in. We had a 1 year old with a peanut allergy and she seamlessly navigated us through all the most delicious food stalls that accommodated us. Our baby took to her immediately and wanted to spend all day with her! Highly recommend!!
