This food tour was 100% worth it! Mari was awesome and gave some history about Osaka as well as took us to one of my favorite spots for noodles now! It was great to be able to support local family businesses and try amazing food! I definitely recommend the tour! I’d do it again if I find myself in Osaka a second timez
