What are people saying about Osaka

Mark_J, Apr 2026

STAY SOBER!! Exciting and educational experience and loads of fun - wrestle a professional!

We didn't know a lot about Sumo going into this experience outside of the fact that it was performed by very large men, so this experience was perfect for our group. The host did a great job of giving a high level explanation of the origins of Sumo and why it is Japans national sport. We met two former professional sumo wrestlers Kai and Riyu and they demonstrated some of the key sumo moves. Lastly, the audience was given an opportunity to wrestle the pros, with a member of the audience actually pulling off a victory! You need to be sober to do the wrestling, so keep that in mind. We took photos and the team were very happy to have us. A must do in Osaka!

SAIKOU NE! Awesome Tour with Kevin-san!

Best tour of our entire Japan trip! Kevin is an entertainer and he really gets to know his guests as much as he knows these locals and their dishes!

Excellent door with Devon

This is one of the best tours I’ve ever taken. Devon was thoughtful and friendly. It’s clear that he has spent a lot of time gaining a deep knowledge and understanding of Japanese history and culture. If you want to see the major Osaka sites and understand their place in history and impact on culture, I can’t recommend this tour more highly.

Fantástico tour!!!!

Mayura showed us places in Osaka that we certainly wouldn’t have had the chance to visit on regular tours. She customized the tour according to our needs and interests. I highly recommend Mayura as a preferred guide for your visit to Osaka. She truly makes all the difference. The tour was so enjoyable that we didn’t even realize how much we had walked.

Full Day Hiroshima and Miyajima Tour by Bullet Train from Osaka

KJ_N, Nov 2025

Big Day Out - Great Overview if only in Osaka for a short time

Firstly, make sure you are ready for a big day - approx 14hrs. I found the communication from the operator excellent prior to our departure, where to meet and remember, they run on a tight time schedule and you cannot be late. Trains in Japan run exactly on-time, so there is no room for a minute or two being late. We were greeted by our guide at the meeting point who then accompanied us to the next station to our connection for the bullet train - what a great experience. At the end destination from the train, we were greeted by our guide for the day and stepped on our bus for an hour drive to the ferry to Miyajima, which we were advised to go to right side for the best view (along with everyone else !!) From the ferry we followed our guide, we made our way to the Itsukushima Shrine with many stops in-between and then left to wander around by ourselves for approx 1.5hrs to enjoy this amazing place and see Deer who were a bit persistent. A place we'd love to go back and spend some more time. Again, remember this tour is on a time limit and being late is not an option. Next stop was Hiroshima Peace Memorial; felt we were a little rushed but there is so much to see and absorb - the museum was so busy and crowded we probably didn't fully appreciate the whole experience and have put on the list for next time to spend more time. Overall, the tour was a great overview and would recommend if you have a short time in the area and trying to experience as much as you can. Tip: we were lucky there was only 15 on our tour and not sure whether we would of enjoyed if we had a full tour group, not against the guide, it is more keeping that many people together and hearing what is being said. Overall - enjoyable and recommend.
