5.00Our tour with Taku was one of the highlights of our trip. He was very knowledgeable of the area and Japan in general and was a lot of fun to bar hop around Osaka with! We even got some local insights on restaurants/shops to visit during the rest of our trip. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore Osaka or just have a fun night out with some good food and drinks.
Fantastic tour through some fantastic bars in Osaka

5.00Had a great time with our tour guide! He explained things very well, and took us to some great bars. He also went out of his way to help my friend who has a gluten allergy, both to make sure he didn't get sick, and that he got to eat something during our tour.
A+ way to jump into a new city!

5.00Had a great time on the Bar Hopping Tour! Naomi did a good job keeping the energy up and showing us places I probably never would have found on my own. Really fun night, that felt like a good value too. Definitely recommend if you're looking to experience Osaka nightlife and meet fellow travelers.
Great tour!

5.00Absolutely incredible experience last night with our guide Mari — hands down one of the best food tours I’ve ever done. The bar hopping was so thoughtfully curated and gave us the perfect mix of hidden local spots, amazing atmosphere, incredible food, and drinks we never would have found on our own. Every stop felt authentic and special, and Mari made the entire night feel effortless, fun, and personal. She was warm, knowledgeable, attentive, and made sure everyone was having an amazing time. We left full, happy, and feeling like we experienced a side of Osaka we never could have discovered ourselves. Could not recommend this tour more highly!
Amazing time with Mari!!

5.00Awesome experience, the all you can drink bars were the best. The tour taught me so much stuff about Japan and Osaka. Its duration was also perfect since one we finished we were in the heart of Dotonburi and could explore it. Food was good and so was the drinks. 10/10!!!
Fantastic night out in Osaka with Nina at Magical Tours!

5.00We had an unintentionally private tour with Nina on Thursday, May 14th and had an absolutely incredible time. Not only were the food and drinks delicious, but I enjoyed our conversation with Nina even more! We covered everything from Japanese history and culture, to food and local traditions. I truly felt like we got a great taste of Osaka on our first full day there. Nina was an excellent guide and I cannot recommend her enough - if you are lucky enough to have her as your tour guide, you're in for a true treat. We would absolutely love to go around the city with Nina again!
Would recommend! Food and drinks galore!

5.00Had a wonderful time with Mari and my fellow tour mates! Went around bars/restaurants and were quite full midway through the tour. She was also telling us about Osaka which was nice.
