Great time had at Osaka food tour. Decent, local food stops navigated by a knowledgeable guide who was equally engaging with the two kids, their mum and dad and us two random Scots who made up our group. Everyone enjoyed, and i’d recommend for sure.

We had a great time exploring the market with Hiro! It was interesting to learn about his "day job" and he took us to several great spots, including the basement of the department store where locals buy their lunches. Only noting that we stopped at one store and were told everything should be fine for our dietary restrictions, but I checked ingredients when I got home and one sauce had beef & pork in it. We should definitely have checked and do not expect Hiro to know every ingredient in all the packaged goods in the market! Just advice to future travelers to translate everything!

This was a really great experience. Backstreets for sure, and in places, tough and seedy ones where I never would have ventured as a solo woman traveler. Knox really knew his stuff about the neighborhoods, and how organized crime works, and we even walked through a red light district that was nothing I'd ever seen before, anywhere. I definitely have an expanded sense of Osaka and Japan now. Castles and shrines are wonderful, but this was much better, and I'm glad its in my mix of complicated Japan, because its under the surface. Way under!

Hiro was a great guide for Nishiki market and the surrounding areas. He was able to navigate our special diets and we tried lots of things. He’s a marine biologist so can tell you a lot about seafood as well as Kyoto culture and traditions

We did a food tour in Osaka and it was a such a great and fun experience. Doing Japan for the first time I would highly recommend to do your food tour here in Osaka, the food capitol and you get the opportunity to experience it with Knox ( shout to our heavy metal, head banger) tour guide. Not only he was fun and knowledgeable he made our experience much fun! Thank you

I’ve been to Osaka a few times already and tried to explore the food scene on my own, but this experience definitely highlighted more local spots that I’ve passed without even realizing they were there. Bernie was a great guide and a gracious host. He provided a mix of local history and food history as we roamed Shinsekai. There was a good variety of food and drink. Every dish brought a unique flavor to the experience. Overall great time, highly recommend it for anyone that has a few hours to go on some Osaka food exploration.

My tour with Hiroshima was excellent. He was very easy to talk to and very knowledgeable about the food in the market as well as the surrounding area. There are many few tasting spots in the market that I may not have tried without his guidance.The food we bought was delicious too. Thank you.

Our food tour of Osaka was incredible! Mio was a wonderful guide and it was clear that she was sharing her passion for both food and her hometown with all of us. She kept the tour going at a great pace and provided us with a lot of great information along with the food and drinks. We would highly recommend this tour!
