Scott was a fantastic...

5.00Scott was a fantastic tour guide! We really appreciated how he weaved together local history and information about the food we were having, and throwing in plenty of jokes, all while keeping us on track to finish on time. The tour had a variety of food (chicken, takoyaki, etc.) and it was all good. The tour was in Shinsekai, a touristy area, but several of the spots felt local, like ones I don't think we would have landed on otherwise (in a good way!). We had a great time.
A must-do experience!

5.00Fantastic experience, it’s a must-do for anyone visiting Osaka. Our host, Anna, was so kind, energetic, and knowledgeable and took great care to ensure everyone had a great experience. This tour is such a good way to try lots of different dishes at different places, and was so well organised too. Thanks for a great experience Anna!
Experience Osaka’s choicest street-culinary with kampai!

5.00Five restaurants - 15 dishes. Starting from a difficult to find mom and pop authentic karaage pub to touristy takonomyaki restaurant to a perfectly maintained small local joint with probably the best udon I have ever had- the whole walk was curated with care and choice! And to Scott - our guide and co-foodie, who turned the whole trip into a boisterous adventure peppered with local lores - THANK YOU!
Incredible tour. Anna was amazing!

5.00This tour is not to be missed! Anna made this experience so much better than expected. She has such great energy, a fun personality, and is incredibly knowledgeable regarding all things Japan... The history, food, culture, customs, origins, etc. The chosen restaurants and specific foods we had were outstanding, and there is no way we would have ever found any of it without this tour and Anna! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
Anna was a great guide and the food was delicious!
