2024 Winner of Viator's 10th Best Experience in the Whole of Asia Award. Eat your way around Osaka on this tantalizing foodie tour, where your local guide will take you to a handful of hidden eateries that have been featured on the hit Netflix series "Somebody Feed Phil."

[Beat the heat with two cold drinks included at the first stop] We welcome you with open arms and two drinks included, so you're tasting from the very first stop. Your guide picks the route based on the night, some bars are better early, some peak later, and knows the owners well enough to get you seated where a walk-in tourist wouldn't get past the door. Expect a mix of sake, local craft beer, highballs, and whatever the bar is known for. What makes this different: we keep groups small on purpose. A 20-person bar crawl can't fit into a 6-seat izakaya, we can, and that's the point. Good fit for: ・Travelers who want a real night out, not a photo-op crawl between chain bars. ・People who like being handed a drink they've never heard of and told why it's good. We will send our store location and information to your WhatsApp, so please keep an eye out.
