Exceptional experience!! Anna was an amazing tour guide. She fostered a wonderful community so quickly with our 9 person tour. She selected exceptionally delicious locations and chose delicious, local food, giving us insight into the stories behind each dish. She clearly had wonderful relationships with all the staff at the restaurants, which made for an even more incredible experience. Don't hesitate - book this tour now!

And saying you would do the tour again tomorrow if you could is about as good a compliment as we could ask for! We’re thrilled that you enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and overall experience so much.

If we could give 10 stars we would. The food tour was fabulous. We were looked after extremely well and got to taste the amazing food of Osaka.

We highly recommend this tour, you won’t regret it.

Great way to learn about the Osaka Food Scene

Robert_M, Sep 2026
It is fabulous way to explore the Osaka food scene. Not too much walking between stops. Each stop was great. I took notes so I could come back on my own. Tour guide Jake was energetic, easy going, and knowledgeable. Not normally a guy that books food tours but this was far better than anticipated.

John_H, Aug 2026
An absolute blast. Our guide Anna (who was more of a host) than just a guide, led us around the local streets with some magical story telling, great humour and utmost care for all 9 of us, regularly ensuring we were okay. The variety of dishes we sampled was ample and delicious, and we also sampled a variety of drinks! Definitely a necessity on what was a very warm evening. Seriously, this was a wonderful experience and thoroughly worth the cost. Thank you Anna for everything.

My wife and I had an amazing time on our food tour of Shinsekai! Our guide was Anna and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. She creates such a friendly atmosphere and is so knowledgeable.

All the food was was very, very, fresh and delicious and Anna had great recommendations and taught us all the way of the Shinsekai.

David_F, Aug 2026
This was an excellent tour on what was just our second day in Japan. Our guide was Adam who was friendly, engaging and informative throughout and fulfilled his promise that we would not be hungry at the end of the evening! We went to five separate locations with a range of foods at each (the chicken was superb) although we never felt rushed or uninformed. There is only a small amount of walking so this is suitable for almost everyone.

Response from Host, Aug 2026

Thank you so much for your wonderful and detailed review! We’re delighted that your food tour with Adam was such a great experience so early in your Japan trip.

We’re glad Adam kept the evening engaging and informative without ever feeling rushed, while making good on his promise that you wouldn’t leave hungry. Thank you for joining us, and we hope the rest of your Japan adventure was just as delicious!

Our guide, Davin, showed us a wonderful evening - touring the streets of Shinsekai, telling us the history of the location and about Japanese culture in general, and taking us to several local restaurants where we tasted a variety of local specialties and traditional foods, as well as an assortment of drinks.

Street food fun

JoAnn_P, Aug 2026
All of the places that we ate at we close proximity to one another. So not much walking involved at all. A variety of food tastings were offered. The variety of food tastings were a wonderful experience and good introduction into Osaka culinary delights. But most importantly our guide Tim was excellent. He was knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. He truly showed us his love for Osaka food.

Highly recommend the Hungry Osaka food tour. Our guide Matt was fantastic. He selected five different restaurants, offering a variety of food and drinks. With his quick wit and long-term experience living in Osaka, he was able to answer all of our questions and our two families with several sub-10 year old children had a great time.

Old and traditional Osaka food tour

Matt was an excellent guide not only regarding the history of each food type, but also the history of old Osaka, customs, and how different Osaka is from Tokyo and Kyoto. In addition, his humor was a big part of the reason our group really jelled.
