Latest reviews from our guests

    This was one of many highlights of our trip to Japan. The tour was in the Teema district of Osaka and our guide Mayura Kai was outstanding. We were a group of 8 friends and she made the tour such fun. Great food but learnt so much extra about Japanese culture as well as food as we toured round several small restaurants we might not otherwise have visited as well as sampling street food. Vibrant nightlife not to be missed.

    Shingo was amazing. It was such an informative and interesting tour. Very much felt like a friend sharing the home town they love. He was so engaged and interesting. Right combination of comfortable and personal with a rich knowledge of the long history of the land and people of Japan. Very pleasant and engaging. Thank you for such a wonderful tour.

    Kai, our guide, took us through places and events, in the sunny Osaka morning, that most tourists would likely miss. We enjoyed the trip enormously!
