One of the best experiences of our 2 week trip

Published on May, 2025

I booked this experience on a whim and didn’t know what to expect, and this exceeded any expectations. Super fun, our guide was very informative and funny and made all of us in the group feel comfortable and welcome. We learned a lot about the red light district and its history, afterwards we got to try a true local standing only izakaya. Our guide Rui pushed us out of our comfort zones with some unique food choices and I’m so happy he did! My fiancé is a chef and he had been dying to try some of the dishes we had. Definitely a must book experience! Would book again just to eat and drink with Rui! Thank you so much for the unforgettable memories!!!!

Such a great and informative experience! Ruey was friendly and funny. He took us to some great places and shared things we never would have learned on our own.

Historical context is important

Published on Mar, 2025

This tour was amazing! Our guide, Haruki brought great energy and so much knowledge. There’s nothing better than having someone who knows which spots to hit and is excited about sharing it! That makes a huge difference because I was in some of the same places earlier that day by myself and didn’t have as much fun! Trust me, I’d never chosen to eat liver on my own or even thought I’d enjoy it. I don’t want to spoil it with more details than that so if you’re reading this, I would highly recommend going!

Osaka fun!!

Published on Feb, 2025

Haruki was a fantastic guide. We had SO much fun and learned a lot about Osaka. He introduced us to very interesting food and their origins.

Fun times!

Published on Feb, 2025

Had an amazing time our host. He was very accommodating and answered every question I had to throw at him. That day we had a group of 6 of us including our host, we walked around the red light district before going to an izakaya for food and then one more place. He ensured that we stayed together and safe of roads we were walking on. There is a lot of walking with this tour so I would recommend taking the day easy on your feet in preparation for this tour.
