The Exciting Osaka 1-Day Walking Tour was truly an unforgettable experience! From the very beginning, everything was well-organized and full of fun.
We started our journey by taking the Nankai Train to Sumiyoshi Taisha, where we explored the beautiful shrine and the nostalgic atmosphere of the surrounding town, riding an old-fashioned tramcar—it really felt like stepping back in time. Afterward, we walked to the lively Shinsekai area, where we enjoyed seeing colorful shopping streets, traditional izakayas, and even some game centers.
One of the highlights was definitely the Takoyaki-making experience! It was so much fun making and eating freshly cooked takoyaki with everyone. The lunch included delicious side dishes too, and it was a perfect way to recharge.
After lunch, we boarded the Aqua Liner for a relaxing river cruise along the Okawa River. The scenery was beautiful, and it was such a peaceful moment to enjoy the seasonal views from the water.
Finally, we visited Osaka Castle and Osaka Castle Park, where we admired the grandeur of the historic castle and climbed up to the tower for stunning views over the city.
Throughout the tour, our guide was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and engaging. They explained the history of each location so clearly and made the experience even more meaningful.
Aside from the amazing experiences, I was also lucky to meet new friends during the tour, which made the day even more special.
I truly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience Osaka’s charm in one fun-packed day!
