Lovely time with Ben san

Published on May, 2025

This lunch tour was the highlight of our visit to Osaka. We were traveling with our daughter, and Ben made the whole experience feel relaxed and engaging. From the bustling markets to cozy lunch spots, we sampled amazing dishes without needing to worry about the evening drinking crowd. The daytime pace was perfect for families, and we appreciated how Ben explained the cultural background behind each bite. A must-do for food-loving families!

Deep Dive into Osaka

Published on May, 2025

After an amazing first tour in Osaka, we wanted to explore the city even more—and this experience was exactly what we were looking for. This one-group-only tour gave us a deep dive into Osaka’s local food culture and daily life. Our guide took us to hidden izakayas we would have never found on our own, each full of character and history. From kushikatsu to takoyaki, every dish was delicious. Now we love Osaka even more!

Family Friendly Tour

Published on May, 2025

This tour was a perfect way to spend the day with our family. Our guide was super friendly and shared lots of fun stories about Osaka’s food and history. Each stop offered something tasty and unique, and even the kids were excited to try new things! Learning about Osaka’s merchant past while enjoying local snacks made the experience both fun and meaningful. It was a great way for all of us—young and old—to enjoy the city together in the daytime.

The Best Way to Taste Osaka as a Family

Published on May, 2025

We had such a good time with Ryouta. He brought us to spots we’d never have walked into on our own, and everything we tried was honestly delicious. The vibe was super relaxed, and our kids felt totally at ease. A really memorable evening—we’re so glad we did this.

Lovely Obaachan tour

Published on Mar, 2025

This lunch tour gave us a heartwarming family memory. At a tiny teppan shop, a sweet obaachan welcomed us like her own grandchildren. She patiently showed the kids how to flip okonomiyaki, and we all laughed and learned together. It felt like visiting a local grandma’s kitchen — warm, personal, and unforgettable.
