What are people saying about Osaka

Justin_T, Oct 2026

Best Sushi Making Experience

We had an amazing time at the sushi-making class with Ayu and Futa! My friends and I had so much fun learning how to make sushi, and Ayu and Futa made the entire experience feel relaxed, welcoming, and personal. They were incredibly friendly, patient, and knowledgeable, explaining each step clearly while sharing interesting details about Japanese food and culture. Even though none of us were expert sushi chefs, the sushi we made was delicious! There were plenty of laughs throughout the class, and it was definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Japan. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Japan!

Debra_S, Sept 2026

Had a great time learning to make ramen and gyoza. I will definitely be working on my technique, but was very happy with the finished products. The ladies onsite were so helpful and patient. I would recommend this to anyone who has an interest in understanding how both ramen and gyoza are made, and what differences make them uniquely Japan.

Ramen and Gyoza Cooking Class in Osaka

Bryan_N, Sept 2026

This was a great class.

This was great. We mainly focused on noodle and dough making which is what I wanted. Not much was spent on broth, so don’t think this is a broth making class. I learned quite a few good techniques for making ramen noodles that I am excited to try at home.

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!

Tea Ceremony Experience in Osaka Doutonbori

Lori_D, Aug 2026

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.

【For adult】Traditional Mochi Pounding Experience with Tasting

Victoria_R, Jul 2026

Informative, fun, and...

Informative, fun, and delicious! All of the staff members were a joy to be around and made us feel welcome. The history of mochi was short and to the point and the pounding was more fun than expected. I was worried we’d do a bad job and our mochi wouldn’t be good, but that worry didn’t happen. It was so tasty! Dipping the mochi in the flavors was a treat! We had a fabulous time and loved every moment of the experience. The location may be a bit hard to find- it’s on a lower sidewalk over looking a river (very scenic).

Highly recommend!

This was so much fun. Our guide got to know us then took us on the perfect tour. We had a mix of things with which we were familiar (like sushi rolls) and brand new things (like takoyaki). Our guide was chatty and engaged my teenagers in lots of conversation. I would take this tour again and recommend it to anyone wanting a food adventure in Osaka!

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.

Matcha Making Class in Osaka with Authentic Japanese Sweets Set

Frankie_J, Apr 2026

Unmissable peek into tea ceremony culture

Our teacher, Sayaka, was so lovely! This was such a meaningful and exciting class for someone who has been a fan of matcha for many years now (I’m a massive tea head!) I really enjoyed the mini ceremony and the sweets, and Sayaka was so engaging and bubbly, thank you so much! I also went on my own because my partner doesn’t like tea, and the group setting was very warm and easy to get along with! Highly recommend for everyone!

Three Types of Ramen Cooking Class in Osaka

Shruti_D, Apr 2026

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 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!

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!
