    Hugo was wonderful. He went out of his way to tailor the tour to our individual preferences as well as make reservations for us at a restaurant.

    My tour guide Hugo met us at the train station as agreed at the time he agreed (ahead of time actually). He’s very friendly, knowledgeable and flexible. Because I had my teenage son with me Hugo allowed us to adjust the tour to meet the desire of my son. This was great and my son really enjoyed himself. We truly enjoyed it flexibility and the tour you provided. We really enjoyed it.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ EXCEPTIONAL GUIDE - HUGO MADE OUR OSAKA EXPERIENCE UNFORGETTABLE! As first-time visitors to Osaka, my husband and I couldn't have asked for a better guide than Hugo. From start to finish, he delivered an absolutely phenomenal day that has become the highlight of our entire trip to Japan. Hugo's service began with incredible convenience - he met us right at our hotel, which was so helpful and made everything seamless from the very start. No confusion about meeting points or getting lost trying to find each other! Hugo's expertise and local knowledge are truly impressive. He took us to incredible places we never would have discovered on our own - from the bustling energy of the fish market to the specialized charm of the Dotonbori kitchen ware district. But the real gem was Minoo Waterfall - one of Japan's top 50 most beautiful waterfalls! The hike there was perfectly manageable, and the scenery was breathtaking. What sets Hugo apart is his ability to perfectly customize the experience. He somehow knew exactly what would captivate us - the serene beauty of Tennoji Gardens, the retro-futuristic atmosphere of Shin Sekai district, and that incredible sushi lunch! Speaking of which, Hugo's suggestion to turn our ultra-fresh sushi into a picnic in the nearby park was pure genius. Eating world-class sushi surrounded by cherry blossoms felt like a scene from a movie. Hugo's linguistic skills are remarkable - he's fluent in Japanese, English, and French, which made communication effortless and allowed him to act as our cultural bridge throughout the day. Beyond his language abilities, Hugo is genuinely kind, considerate, and attentive to every detail. He even went above and beyond by helping us secure dinner reservations for tonight at a restaurant we'd been hoping to try. If you're visiting Osaka and want more than just a typical tourist experience, Hugo is your guy. He doesn't just show you places - he creates memories. This was hands down one of the best guided experiences we've ever had anywhere in the world. Book Hugo without hesitation - you won't regret it!
