    Fabulous family walking tour

    Jilda_B, Oct 2025
    The lovely tour guide was very accommodating for our family of seven however did seem unsure of navigating around some of the points of interest at times Perhaps more in-depth history

    Fantastic day, Osaka

    johnchic, Apr 2025
    We had an amazing day in Osaka with our tour guide Nori. He was extremely friendly, energetic and knowledgeable. He had a fantastic itinerary plan for our day seeing sites that we would not have seen without him. We had a wonderful lunch. We went to temples and shrines we went to Great markets. The day could’ve not been better. Thank you for the great day John, Erick, and Shawn.

    Response from Host, Jun 2025

    Thank you so much for your high evaluation about Oska Tour. And I'm very glad to hear that you were satisfied with various experiences during the tour. I also had a good day to be with you and to communicate each other. I wish I could guide you in Japan again someday in different season. Best regards, Norifumi Kamon (Nori)
