Why the five stars

Why the five stars When you visit a country for the first time you want to know all the fun things to do in a short period of time. But not only do you want to do that, you also want to do it with a great guide, good company and in a fun, lively and entertaining manner. Which is exactly what we had, hence the five stars. Doing a tour of most of the food that exists in incredible Osaka is the perfect way to get started. Kenzo made it happen in the best possible way. What’s to expect You will visit places that you will not think of and enjoy it. If you are guided by Kenzo, it will make it fun and upbeat for you. You will eat amazing food and drink great stuff. You will meet a lot of people and you will even mingle with locals. Conclusion: Don’t give it a thought and book it, ideally on the first day of your arrival which will allow you to break the ice and feel more comfortable for the rest of your stay. Will post content on social media tagging Osaka food tours so please feel free to stay tuned for more.
Do it!! Sooner rather than later!

Andy was great and took us to proper authentic places. Highly recommend and also to do it earlier on in the trip, we wish we did it sooner as we would have loved to have had time to go back to some of the places we went on the food tour. Worth every penny!!
Mother son experience to perfection

Our host Micheal, & Knox, were incredibly amusing and energetic! The locations for a nice variety of Osakan cuisine (in a simple tapas style) was a perfect mix. And the drinks selected, both alcohol and without, we a nice option and not too “loaded to ruin your time on the tour. You can tell that the guys who coordinate this food tour take extra care not just in the locations selected, but also with those who are experiencing with certain food choices. And to top it off!!!…Micheal challenged my son to a shoot out LOL where he won two prizes and wowed the vendor at his skills….Go Texas!! My son was beyond happy to experience the variety of flavors in all of the food, as the Asian/Japanese cuisine is his most favorite and our whole intention for having this mother son trip together. So this trip is perfect for a younger child in their early teens or preteens who wants to have a safe and truly experiential time. The Villa tour guide or not just this trip but the other one that we have done were so fabulous and just made the experience top-notch

A great small group (8) tour and fun way to explore the area around the Tsutenkaku Tower. We saved this tour for our last night of a 14-day trip throughout Japan and sampled Japanese street food, most of which we hadn’t yet tried. Our guide, Kevin, was very knowledgeable about the food and local history/culture and seemingly knew everyone in the neighborhood. He made the tour even more fun! We left feeling plenty full!
