Overview

Osaka is Western Japan’s largest city. World-wide events will be held in the near future so that the city is getting more attention from all over the world. In this tour, you can enjoy four things. Firstly, you will get an overview of Osaka’s history at a museum giving you a deep understanding of the city. Then, you will explore one of Japan’s biggest castles with a beautiful main tower, and learn about the life of a great samurai hero who has been loved by Osaka people for generations. Thirdly, you will visit the longest market street (1.6 miles) in Japan which is filled with small shops where tourists rarely visit and can compare to the old days in a museum. Lastly, you will make your own cup noodles at the very place where instant noodles were invented. You can take them back home as a souvenir. Furthermore, you will also enjoy three different train-rides including Osaka Metro, JR, and Hankyu lines in one day. This tour will be a memorable one!

Itinerary

  • Cup Noodle Museum Osaka Ikeda

    One of the most popular foods on the globe, instant noodles and cup noodles were invented by the same man in Osaka. You will visit the birth place of Chicken Ramen and know about the history of those fabulous and indispensable inventions. In addition, you can make your own original cup noodles by painting on a container and choosing ingredients by yourself. Have fun and make good memories!

    1 hour 5 minutes

  • Osaka Museum of Housing and Living

    In this musuem, you can hop back in time and experience a day at the old shopping street in the 1830s, thanks to life-size and accurate reproductions. You will get to know the way of living of Osaka merchants and may feel like meeting locals living moderately but lively in old-day Osaka.

    50 minutes

  • Tenjinbashi-suji Shopping Street

    This is the longest shopping street (1.6 miles) in Japan. This street once thrived as the main entrance to the the famous Osaka Tenmangu Shrine and even now is bustling with a lot of locals coming here to enjoy eating and watching shops/people. Unlike Shinsaibashi or Umeda where you can find high-end shops, lots of mom-and-pop stores and a bit old-fashioned shops line this street. Here, you will enjoy strolling around a present-day local shopping street and taste some of its local food.

    1 hour

  • Osaka Museum of History

    Standing on the ruins of ancient palace and just in front of Osaka castle, you can learn about the history of Osaka from primeval to modern days. Inside the museum, numerous reproductions, mannequins and videos are shown. It helps you to understand the city and its people well, and to enjoy the subsequent spots more. Above all, from the 10th floor windows of this museum, you can enjoy a fantastic overview of Osaka Castle!

    50 minutes

  • Osaka Castle

    Originally founded in the 16th century, this is one of the largest castles in Japan. Two wide and deep moats, high stone walls and other protective devices make this solid castle an impregnable one. The Main Keep is beautifully decorated with gold ornaments which harmonize completely with the patinated roof. Here, you will learn the life of a samurai warrior hero who was born into a very poor family and finally became the king of the nation.

Our tour guide Masa was...

Published on Dec, 2024

Our tour guide Masa was great, she made sure we were able to see all the attractions and understand the historical points behind them. She was also very caring and understanding. My mum has mobility issues and made sure she was able to use all the lifts/escalators that were around as there is quite a bit of walking to do. I would highly recommend this tour if you are looking for a bit of fun in Osaka. The cup noodle factory was also a blast.

Wonderful guide Matsumoto Satomi!
