Outstanding Fun Tour Even in the Rain
This was the most fun tour, excellent value and flexibility. Our guide Kieran met us at our hotel and showed us Osaka: the castle, the colorful history museum, the popular retro New World neighborhood, the Kuromon market. Kieran was very informative and caring. Without a wonderful guide like Kieran we would have been lost in the maze of Osaka underground shops and subways. Despite bad weather, we had the best time.

A Fantastic Osaka Food Tour with our guide, Jimmy!
Our guide, Jimmy, was both fun and professional, offering fascinating insights into Osaka’s history, culture, and quirky charm. The food was delicious, and the hands-on experiences made the tour even more enjoyable. There was plenty to eat, so be sure to arrive hungry.

From the South Australian Aussies
We had a fantastic day and our guide Ishmael was the best. He was informative, extremely friendly, no question was too hard, he was attentive and we really enjoyed our day with him. He made sure we had enough time and information to fully appreciate everything we saw and he took a group photo at each significant destination which we thoughtwas above and beyond. Thanks Ishmael.

Gino was an excellent guide
Gino was an excellent guide. Great communication. He told us interesting Japanese history related to the Osaka Castle; among all the tours we took in two weeks in Japan, Gino taught us the most. He was willing to adapt the tour to our interests and was very flexible. It was clear that he was trying to do a good job to ensure that my group was pleased with our day.

Well organized tour with enriching experiences
I was grateful for how organized this tour was. The pick up from Osaka cruise terminal was perfect and our driver was efficient and flexible allowing us to see things off the beaten path. Tom our tour guide was very accommodating and gracious. We went during the Gion festivities in Kyoto and we got to see the floats which was a real thrill. The temples were spectacular. Kyoto itself is a very large city which surprised us, but they have managed to preserve the old city very well. Great tour which I highly recommend.

Fun and different way to explore Osaka
We had such a fun time. Mo was very patient with us not having the best bicycle skills. He made us feel safe and took us to some excellent food spots. We took some great pictures along the way. It was a completely different and fun way to see the city of Osaka!

Amazing time with Mari!!
Absolutely incredible experience last night with our guide Mari — hands down one of the best food tours I’ve ever done. The bar hopping was so thoughtfully curated and gave us the perfect mix of hidden local spots, amazing atmosphere, incredible food, and drinks we never would have found on our own. Every stop felt authentic and special, and Mari made the entire night feel effortless, fun, and personal. She was warm, knowledgeable, attentive, and made sure everyone was having an amazing time. We left full, happy, and feeling like we experienced a side of Osaka we never could have discovered ourselves. Could not recommend this tour more highly!

Great Value Private Kyoto Tour
Our guide Yoshino was excellent. We communicated quite a bit by email prior to the tour customizing our itinerary, Yoshino happily accepted a last minute change to our pick up spot. During the day he expertly guided us using trains, subways and taxis. We never waited more than 5-10 minutes.
We were on a cruise and Yoshino got us back to the ship with plenty of time.
He is a great photographer and was happy to take pictures of us at every stop.
Highly recommend Yoshino and this tour.

Amazing food tour!
This was a highlight of our trip! We were so happy to be introduced to the areas of Temma and Kyobashi. Loved the vibe and the food. Tommy was our guide and he put together an amazing selection of locations with excellent atmosphere and food. The walk in between was part of the fun, we had great conversation and learned a bit about the customs and culture of the area. Recommended for sure.

Great experience
Great Service and appreciate the patience while we finalized the check-out process at our hotel. Driver arrived ~10 minutes early for our 2pm pick up. Checking out at the hotel, took longer than expected but driver was patient and accommodated us. Van (Nissan) was spacious and clean. Plenty of room for 4 people with 9 total bags. Highly recommended!

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Most tours in Osaka hit the city’s highlights, but for travelers who want a more tailored approach that takes their specific interests into account, then Osaka private sightseeing tours are definitely the way to go. Set the pace as you explore the city, and spend more time in museums, at markets, or around areas that really interest you. Private sightseeing tours in Osaka are the next best thing to having a local friend show you around the city.
