Shinsekai
This suburb is a bright burst of colour into anyone’s life. Famous for being Osaka’s ‘old downtown district’, it carries an air of nostalgia through its retro-style stalls and shops which often has visitors stopping at the displays and mascots out front just to take photos. It’s definitely considered one of the best photo spots in towns simply because a). It’s so visually crazy and appealing, and b). There are so many photo opportunities everywhere. Don’t forget to also try and capture an image of Tsutenkaku Tower, which is considered the unofficial symbol of Shinsekai!
Osaka Castle
This visually stunning castle will take your breath away from the moment you lay eyes on it. Surprisingly, one of the things that make this place stand out is the fact that it’s surrounded by metropolitan buildings. Because of this uniqueness in location, this castle appears to be that much more special.

Sachico was an amazing tour guide. She was patient, she took great pictures and she is very knowledgeable in the area. We walked so much and she helped us find a store to get some compression socks. I want her as a tour guide again on my next visit.

Sachico was amazing! She was patient, kind, informative and took amazing pictures when our phones died. The tour was scenic, beautiful and unrushed. We got to see everything we wanted to see and then some. Thank you Sachico! You are the best. 🩷🤍🩷 The tour was great!

Yuka was our guide and she was awesome. She worked with us and what we wanted to see. Her English was good and she showed us the wonderful sights of Osaka as well as guiding us on train and entry tickets. I would thoroughly recommend Yuka and JGA, we had the best day!

We had a fantastic day with our guide Mimmy. She was so knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. Mimmy arrived with metro tickets and took us across the city. Our hotel was near Osaka castle and instead of taking the easy option of starting there she reasoned that we could go there on our own. Instead we started with an interesting shrine preparing for the new year and Mimmy told us about the celebrations. As Mimmy was our third guide in Japan a lot of our basic questions had already been answered and Mimmy focused on contemporary Japan giving us insight into how Osaka enjoys itself. We saw puffer fish and octopus at the market and wee introduced to the amazing Osaka “Time Square” and the myriad of amazing restaurants nearby. We played retro arcade games and saw the city from a high viewpoint to get our bearings. Mimmy took lots of family photos of the four of us which are a lovely momento. Mimmy also gave us an extremely useful map and guide to Osaka. All in all a fantastic and fun packed day in excellent company. Highly recommended.
