Hiroko Ohashi was a great guide. He taught us a lot of knowledge. She is very passionate about Osaka and it was great to interact with her. She truly felt like a friend. Throughout the museum tour, she recommended other activities to us. After the tour, we went to see a Bunraku show! It was a really nice experience and well worth the money.

Akiko was a great tour guide and spoke good English. We learned a lot about the history of Osaka and the tour of Osaka Castle was also amazing. She was kind enough to take pictures of us and knew where to get good pictures. Highly recommend this tour.

Our guide met us at the Osaka Museum of History and told us about the background of the castle and the role it played in the history of Japan’s Shogunate. After that we went to the castle. The castle was large and very impressive. The guide was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions as expected. The guide took us to the Dotonbori area and let us experience delicious cutlet dishes. He gave it to me.

We enjoyed a great walking tour with an English speaking guide. They gave us historical information while showing us around interesting places. This is a big city, so it would have been difficult for them to manage it on their own. The guide was awesome!!!!!

This Osaka private tour was the last of our Japan trip. After traveling around Japan for 2 weeks, our guide had to be very creative to impress us with something special. Our lovely guide, Yuko-san, did just that, politely and brilliantly. She picked out the best things about Osaka, its people, and its customs. She was very interactive with us and adjusted the time and location to suit our needs. The best guide in Osaka is Yuko Kishihara. I applaud her.

Mr. Yama was the best. He had a great sense of humor, was very informative, and was very accommodating to our wants and needs. By walking for half a day, I was able to experience not only the history and landmarks, but also the sights, sounds, smells, and people of Osaka. In short, I got to experience the good, the bad, and the ugly. Mr. Yama, you did a great job!

We took a private tour with our guide Hiro. It was very educational and accommodating to our needs. It was fun meeting Hiro and the tour was great. It involves a lot of walking, so if you have a physical disability or find it difficult to walk a lot, you may want to reconsider.

I had a great time walking around Osaka with Hiromi. She speaks fluent English and knows Osaka very well and knows nice places to go and good restaurants. We tried different foods at the market and saw so many amazing things we would never have found on our own. Thank you, Hiromi!
