Fabulous way to see tiny establishments and interact with the local people! Our group had a blast! Got to try many local dishes and our guide made excellent recommendations for drinks at the various places. We highly recommend this tour. If you do only one guided tour in Osaka, and you enjoy food and drinks, do this one. We also did the Osaka food tour, which was fun, but this was superior to that one.

Must-do if you want a backstreets, unique, & delicious experience. We had the best time doing this in our first night in Osaka & it set us up to really enjoy all the city has to offer. All the places Paul took us we would have never found on our own. We will be talking about this experience for a long time!

Ask for Kevin if you can! Incredibly friendly and a very genuinely kind dude that will show you around the back streets of Osaka - amazing Izakayas and shrines (not the ones you’d think)

Kevin was an excellent guide and showed us all the places that the locals would go, not just the tourists 5/5 would recommend! He is definitely the person to show you a good time in Osaka!
