Sapporo: Private and Personalized Eat Like a Local Tour
Great overview of what locals eat. Wish it also included Niko market.
Osaka: Eat Like a Local Street Food Tour
We have the best tour guides all over Japan. They were all very friendly and all fabulous. Rei in Himeji was exceptional. Helpful. Planned and booked a fantastic lunch and had extra little videos to show us at assorted locations. She was perfection. She arranged our tour such that we would get to each of the different locations with less crowds, and in the least hot part of the day. She took us to locations that other people might’ve bypassed. Marie in Tokyo was SO COOL! She was knowledgeable and friendly and amazing! She had a lot of knowledge about the city and really got along with my daughter when they realize they shared an interest in the same music. We Have a great time with her. Eugene, and Kyoto was wonderful. We opted for the night tour, so even though a lot of the shrines were closed, we got to see them just not enter them, which was OK because we didn’t need to enter every single shrine in Kyoto. He told us all about Guyon and the history and the architecture And what they do to the cedar on the buildings. He told us the history of the place he told us some pop culture about the place. And he took us to an incredible Ramen place. He also took us in and around the different areas where there were less crowds, but more beauties than We even expected. In Osaka,, Kanna Took us on a food tour that was exceptional. She also managed to get us a tea room excursion after our event because a friend she had in town. Everything we tried to book was sold out, and she made one phone call and we were in by 4:30. she was incredibly funny, very helpful and oh my gosh, the food in Osaka! I can’t even. Our final Tori, Nora, with the peaceful, playful deer, ha ha, was really wonderful. Our tour guide, Eugene was fantastic. He took us first, up to the top of the building so we can see the whole city. He then took us in and around and through all of the most important parts of Nora. And he was wonderful to talk to you. Thank you so much for your incredible staff and all of your incredible tours.
Great Guide.
Toshi was very knowledgeable, fluent in English, and made us feel out in town with a friend learning as much about the japanese way of life and thinking as of the food scene. He even arranged the foodtour to hidden gems near our hotel saving us transport time and effort from the standard scheduled meeting point. We asked many questions on everything from computergames to shinto shrines and Toshi always gave thoughtful and honest answers or told us when he didnt know and made us feel very comfortable. Highly recommended.
Osaka Private Food Tours by Local Foodies: 100% Personalized
We loved the Osaka Food Tour. My son and I have serious & different food allergies, so this was a safer way to experience several of the food markets in Osaka. Fumiko, our guide, was the absolute BEST!
Reka was absolutely amazing! We had so much fun and tried/leaned so many new things. It was incredible to feel so comfortable while so far from home and we truly felt like we got the most of our time in Kobe with our locals help.
Excellent recommendations and very good service. If we ever needed something the restaurant didn't provide Fumiko jumped up to get it. We had great service at every restaurant picked and wonderful food, and she was understanding of our dietary needs.
Amazing host!!
Fumiko was amazing. I lost count of how many great places we stoped for food & drink. Delicious! She had to take extra care with us because I have a gluten allergy and my son is allergic to shellfish, peanuts & nuts. We are so grateful to her. She is a wonderful ambassador for Osaka and City Unscripted!
We had the most incredible day with Unscripted Tours in Osaka, and our guide Fukimo made it absolutely unforgettable! From the moment she found us because we exited the train station from the wrong sides. She's warm, friendly, and completely flexible. She even walked us back to our train at the end of the tour to make sure we didn’t get lost again. We thought we’d be walking through markets sampling a few bites here and there, but this tour was so much more. Fukimo had tables reserved for us at local restaurants where we sat down and enjoyed full meals. We tried things like whale and puffer fish and a variety of local alcohol drinks. Everything felt authentic, thoughtful, and adventurous. Fukimo shared so much about the culture and history behind the dishes. It truly felt like exploring Osaka with a knowledgeable friend who wanted to show us their version of the city. Highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants a true taste of Osaka!

Loys was fantastic. He took both of our unique and individual preferences into account when selecting stops on the tour. The conversion was great and so was the food. He even took extra time to help us find a store we had been looking for. It was a wonderful experience and he is an awesome guide. Thank you Loys!
Nagasaki Street Food Adventure: Private Walking Tour with a Local
Miki was just fantastic. She was personable, knowledgable, and authentic. She took us around to markets and restaurants that had snacks and meals that were delicious and local. Her English was great - and she was happy to answer any questions we had concerning history of the area, the local customs and culture, and, of course, food!!! She even had painted something special as a birthday gift for our daughter. Would highly recommend - this is a great way to experience Nagasaki!
Awesome host!
Apy was delightful. She was prompt, friendly, and attentive. She ensured we had time to sit in a/c sampling food in restaurants in between some quick street food stops. She was informative and and engaging. We would definitely book her again for a tour.
