5.00The tour led by Satsuki and aided by Hikaru was a phenomenal introduction to Osaka. We came for a day trip and left feeling like locals with an in-depth understanding of the city's best sights, eats, and pastimes. The guides were refreshing to talk to, and made for a genuine experience. It was a benefit to learn from students!

5.00We had a wonderful experience on our tour with Shizuka! She was very knowledgeable with the history of Osaka and went above and beyond to meet our expectations. It was lots of fun and we would definitely recommend her to our friends.

5.00We’ve been in Japan for two weeks, and this was truly one of the best tours we’ve done. Satsuki was wonderful, friendly, knowledgeable, and full of great stories. She brought Osaka’s history to life as we explored Osaka Castle and learned about Nobunaga and Hideyoshi. After that, we wandered through different markets and sampled several of the local foods, our favorite being the famous takoyaki (octopus balls) from her recommended spot. She even led us through a lively shopping district where our new friends tried puffer fish (and thankfully lived to tell the tale!). Satsuki never rushed us, answered every question with patience and humor, and made the entire morning so enjoyable. It was a spectacular experience, and we’d highly recommend her tour to anyone visiting Osaka!
Shizuka rules!

5.00Our guide Shizuka was awesome. Showed us the sights, explained the history. We would have never navigated the route by ourselves. Well worth the money.
