Overview

You’ll explore the Namba district as well as the famous Dotonbori area, Osaka’s renowned destination for all things food, wandering through tiny lantern-lit alleyways and neon-lit streets to discover where the best local delicacies are cooked up. You’ll be exposed to regional and traditional Japanese dishes as your host takes you to spots where you can learn all about their origins and local ingredients. Within 24 hours after booking you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you'll be assigned a like-minded host. Your host will communicate with you directly to suggest an itinerary to help you discover what makes the city unique. You will also agree on a meeting time and place. Your itinerary is flexible, so during the experience, you can always change your mind about what you want to do.

Enjoyable Osaka Food Tour

Published on Dec, 2024

Fumiko was warm, friendly and knowledgeable about the city of Osaka and its wonderful history in food. She ushered us through the city and introduced us to the most delicious foods (ex. best crab-in-bao-bun we’ve ever had). We thoroughly enjoyed our tour.
