  This was our first family visit to Japan & we were travelling with our young adult sons and our first stop was Osaka. We were very happy with our guide Yuka who showed us some memorable sites and introduced us to the railway system on our first day in Osaka. Yuka is very knowledgeable about the history of Japan and we enjoyed her humour & energy. Thank you Yuka our family enjoyed the tour & your company 🫶

  Our guide Yama-san gave us a great tour, packed with fun facts, interesting background, and lots of fantastic food recommendations, all delivered with lots of humor. With his help, we packed in a lot of sights and experiences into our only full day visiting Osaka; we had a great time and want to return. Imagine your favorite uncle taking you on a tour of his city and you get the idea.

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

• Excellent Guide

  Tatsuya Ito was an excellent guide for our day in Osaka! He met us at our hotel at 9 am prompt which we appreciate - and spent the entire day with us! We selected the top highlights we wanted to see including Osaka castle. He was extremely knowledgeable and relatable. He did an awesome job with the history - that we carried with is for the rest of our trip. A highlight for me was just discussing everyday life with him over lunch - I loved learning what his actual life was like and seeing we are all really the same at the core! He also helped secure tickets for the cannel cruise on Dontobori in the evening so we could see the lights - and took fabulous photos all over for us. We highly recommend Ito San and wish we had known he also does tours in Tokyo and Kyoto - next time!

  What a great tour... I feel like i saw all of Osaka in a day. Got tons of great photos and learned alot about the culture. Yuko is so sweet and knowledgeable. It was amazing to not get lost at the train station for once. For that alone she is worth it. I would book again in a heartbeat.

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

• Phenomenal Osaka Private Tour with Kaeko Tanigawa!

  Booking this private tour with Kaeko Tanigawa on our first day in Japan was the single best decision we made for our entire trip. We were immediately immersed and acclimated to the city, thanks entirely to Kaeko's expertise and professionalism. ​The tour lasted six hours, and Kaeko packed every minute with valuable insights and amazing experiences. She is profoundly knowledgeable about Osaka's history, culture, and cuisine, and she answered all of our questions with incredible detail. ​ ​Kaeko didn't just show us sights; she helped us settle in. She was thoughtful and proactive, pointing out the best spots for photos and local food that we never would have found on our own. For travelers newly arrived in Japan, her guidance was invaluable. ​Beyond the tour itself, Kaeko went above and beyond by providing us with a list of personalized recommendations—restaurants to try and places to visit—for the remainder of our time in the country. This personalized planning elevated our entire vacation. ​Given everything we were able to do, see, and learn, the tour was incredibly reasonably priced and offered outstanding value. We can confidently say this private tour with Kaeko was the true highlight of our trip. If you are visiting Osaka, doing a tour with Kaeko is a must!

  We had a fantastic private tour in Osaka with Sachiko! She was so friendly, easy to talk to, and made sure we saw everything on our wish list. Together, we planned an itinerary that included the Tsutenkaku area, Osaka Castle and its gardens, Kuromon Market, Umeda Sky Building, Namba Yasaka Shrine, and lively Dotonbori. Sachiko was very thoughtful about helping us capture great photos along the way and made sure everyone in our group enjoyed the experience. Her local knowledge and cheerful personality made the day truly memorable!

  It was fast paced, but allowed us to see a lot. Saw several shrines, temples, Osaka Castle, and shopping/local areas. The Guide, Yama, explained everything we encountered and experienced very thoroughly. He spoke very good English and added a bit of humor that made it educational and fun!

  My family of 3 thoroughly enjoyed our experience on our tour of Osaka. Our guide, Yama-san , knew a lot about the sites that we selected. We visited Osaka Castle, Shinten-noji Temple, Sumiyoshi Taisha Shrine, Kuromon Ichiba Market, and Dotombori Street. Yama-san had great information about the history but also had funny stories from his tours and lots of jokes. At the Market and Dotombori Street, he introduced us to Tacoyaki and helped us find good seafood and real Kobe beef. 5 stars, a great tour
