Delicious way to see Osaka
We had lots of fun and lots of food on this tour! Tim was an excellent and knowledgeable guide, full of fun facts and pleasure to be around. We tried so many different dishes and had some drinks as well, it was a great way to see Osaka on our first night here. Even the kids like the food! Highly recommend!

We had an absolutely fantastic time at the sushi masterclass! Our group of 9 people thoroughly enjoyed every single moment of the experience. The instructor was engaging, and the step-by-step guidance made making sushi feel simple and incredibly fun. Everything from the fresh ingredients to the lively atmosphere was perfect, and all of us walked away with great new culinary skills and full stomachs. It was highly organized and accommodated our entire group beautifully, making it an unforgettable experience that we will definitely recommend to all our friends!

A treasure
I considered doing the tea ceremony at a ‘big name hotel’ but it was booked and boy am I glad it was! I believe that fate allowed me to join this great group of diverse people for a very intimate and educational experience. My husband had zero interest in tea ceremonies so I went alone. I felt very safe and comfortable. I tend to get lost easily so my husband and I scouted out the location the night before. It is probably easy to find for normal people but as I said I get lost easily so I was glad we did the dry run. Our instructor was so gracious and did everything possible to ensure everyone was comfortable. I learned a lot and feel like I learned more in this smaller setting than I would have at the brand hotel ceremony. Our instructor talked a lot about the day to day life of people in her neighborhood and how the tea ceremony education starts very early. She also talked about how it is ever evolving. Her knowledge was vast and fascinating. The tea was delicious as were the treats. And there was opportunity to purchase some items to take with you. I loved this experience and would highly recommend it.

Great cookery class
Very enjoyable cookery class, both tutors were extremely friendly, patient & excellent at making the experience perfect. We both learnt lots.
They made the noodles & gyoza appear easy & tasted amazing. You will not leave feeling hungry.
Very good value for the session and the facilities were great.
Many thanks

A very unique must-do!
Wonderful experience! Everything you ever wanted to know about mochi, including its history, its purpose, how it’s made, and what it tastes like. Including several surprisingly delicious flavours! Just a fun hands-on experience, and the team were made it even more special with their warm welcome and enlightening presence! Thank you!

Awesome way to see the city
Joel was fantastic! Very knowledgeable and great with my 11 year old son’s questions. We saw so much and we were able to start our trip with key knowledge. He had great restaurants to recommend as well. A highlight of our trip was when an elderly Japanese women came over to say hello to us, she was curious about our family, and we had a lovely conversation.

Fantastic - can’t wait to try at home
What a fantastic experience! We thoroughly enjoyed our sushi-making class today with Lala and Ayu.
Both teachers were incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable, and patient, making the whole experience fun, engaging, and easy to follow. They explained each step clearly, shared fascinating insights into Japanese food culture, and created a relaxed atmosphere where everyone felt comfortable.
The ingredients were fresh, the instruction was excellent, and it was so rewarding to create and enjoy our own sushi for lunch. Lala and Ayu’s enthusiasm and passion for what they do truly shone through and made the class memorable.
We would highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Osaka who wants a hands-on cultural activity and a deeper appreciation of Japanese cuisine.
Thank you, Lala and Ayu, for a wonderful afternoon and a highlight of our trip to Japan!

Memorable Moments in Osaka ✨️❤️
Such a Great experience, Keiko, her assistant and mother where a pleasure to learn from. They spoke great English so understanding eachother was a plus! Keiko reached out to us prior and asked about food restrictions or dietary restrictions. She was able to accommodate my vegan diet which I was super happy because one of the main ingredients in Okonomiyaki is eggs. The replacement was a particular Japanese potato that worked great as a binder. Her mother gifted us with a little handmade purse made out of kimonos. A very heartfelt moment learning about how food brings people together. We both enjoyed this class and will be practicing what we learned at home. Okonomiyaki is very tasty and versatile. It can be made exactly to your personal liking! I highly recommend giving this class a try!

10/10 experience!
This was the best cooking class I’ve ever taken! It was very well organized and interactive, with every little detail thought through. Our chef Keigo was wonderful and a big part of what made the experience great - he taught us about why certain ingredients are used or why certain steps in cooking are done, and I learned multiple tips I’ll take home with me. He is a fantastic and enthusiastic teacher, photographer and chef all in one! Would absolutely recommend to anyone visiting Osaka!

I absolutely recommend...
I absolutely recommend this activity! This was an expertly run cooking class. We were a family of 4 (3 adults and 1 teen). This is a highlight of our Japan trip. The guide was warm, inviting and so helpful. We were given the recipes so we are now inspired to make the meal when we get home. Loved it!

Best ramen class
Excellent cooking class- best we have done in Japan. Very efficient and teaching experience. You can also purchase some supplies at the end like garlic grater or cooking chopsticks so can be a nice souvenir.
Please was easy to find- Marina and Kasa were so nice!!!! We were a group of 3 plus 4 more participants so a total of 7 but we did not feel rushed and food was delicious! Try not to eat lunch before!

Go karting with Yuma was the best experience!
Yuma was an incredible tour guide for our go kart experience! He was super kind, patient and helpful. He constantly checked in with us while we were at the red lights to make sure everyone in the group was okay. He took some really great pictures of our group as well as some really awesome videos in our go karts. We would definitely recommend this experience to anyone who is interested!
