5.00Tim was a great guide with the tour being so great. Great food, great choices of restaurants we would have not chosen otherwise, for the fact that we wouldn't have known. Tim was super knowledgeable and made the experience fun and interesting. Highly recommend the tour for your next trip to Osaka. We had a great time and the food was plentiful!

5.00What can I say other than Anna was amazing!! She was so knowledgeable, friendly and an overall amazing guide. Most tours I’ve been on have guides that are not nearly as friendly. Very quickly into our tour all 9 of us, which consisted of two friend groups and 2 solo travelers were having such an amazing time we all continued our night with drinks after the tour. I believe this to be due a lot in part to Anna and her ability to get everyone to interact and crack jokes although we all just met. I would take this tour a million times over. Thanks so much for such a great experience in Osaka, Anna!! I should also mention that the food selections were fantastic!! Great job to everyone on this team
Great street food tour
