    Great day with some off the beaten track places to discover in Osaka. Our guide Maria was wonderful, and gave us plenty of great recommendations.

    Taku is a very friendly Guide that knows a lot about his City (Osaka) and its history. Ee learned a lot about this vibrant City with many interesting spots and places. We enjoyed every minute of this 4 h tour.

    It's honestly incredible. Miki was so kind and arrived at our meeting place early. We took public transit, and she took me to different restaurants and they were all really amazing. She took me to temples and explained everything to me as we went along. Miki was extremely courteous, kind and patient. The only thing I need to mention is that the traveler is responsible for their tour guide's costs as well as their own.

    We did a 4 hour walking tour of Osaka with Maria. She had great communication before our tour through WhatsApp and answered any questions. I asked her to divide the 4 hours between shrines and food and she did an excellent job. I highly recommend anyone visiting Osaka to book her.
