Begin your evening food tour in Osaka by meeting your guide and small group at the designated central-city location.
Spend three hours exploring a variety of low-key local eateries with your guide, who has a wealth of insider information to share with you. Visit five different places, ranging from a backstreet stall to a standing bar. Dine at places you probably wouldn’t find independently, and try foods that many travelers overlook.
As well as many different dishes, two alcoholic drinks are included, such as sake, shochu, or other local favorites. Engage in some fun quizzes along the way and learn more about Osaka’s culture and cuisine. The tour ends at the same place you started—return to your accommodation by yourself or keep the party going independently.

Hands down will recommend to anyone I know visiting Osaka.
Tommy was an excellent, knowledgeable guide who led our group on an evening of great food, drinks and stories. Trust his beverage recommendations - they’re a winner!

I was told to say"Kevin was OK" but he wasn't
He was great!!!
A very knowledgeable, funny "people person", who made the whole group instantly at ease and having fun.
There were so many delicious dishes and even drinks included and of course you can buy more, if you like.
This was a very entertaining, filling, fun tour.
PS to Kevin's boss -give him a raise! 😁😁👍

A good night, we all enjoyed it :) We weren't sure about a tour with others but it was good and the right mix of people. We had a 6 year old with us as well which wasn't a problem. There is no way we would have found or tried the food we did in such a small area. All the places were lively and added a bit of culture to the night. Our guide was happy and friendly. Overall a good night and we would recommend for others to want to taste a few of the ways they eat their food. Thank you :)

Holly_T, Apr 2024
We love to do food tours in any new city and this was one of the best of them. Michael was a fun and caring guide, sharing cultural and historical knowledge alongside great local food. The experience felt authentic yet suitable for most pallets. Excellent tour - I want to do more tours with this company now!

We had a great time on this tour! We got to try lots of new foods and hear about the story of the neighborhood. Also loved being able to ask all of my random Japanese culture questions to our guide. Highly recommend

Jason, it's always a pleasure to have guests like you. You likewise were respectful, kind, ready for a laugh and curious about our food and Osakan culture.
What more could we want is a guest:)
Manyyy thanks and enjoy Japan.

Adam is by far the best tour guide we’ve ever had! His knowledge, humour and Aussie flair makes the experience more than just about food. You’ll also learn so much about the history of Osaka as well. Can’t recommend this tour enough!
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Yes, that is a win:)
"Best tour guide we've had". We'll take that with glee. Thank you so much for coming. We really appreciate you choosing us.
Kind regards,
Andy-Kenji (and Adam haha)
