Vegetarian Takoyaki Food Tours(9)

Firstly, KT was great. Gregarious and a trooper for staying positive despite the heavy rain. We had missed the cancellation window, so I suppose the show had to go on. She also spoke English well! We walked around to a few street stands and older spots, learning about the area and ordering foods like dumplings and taiyaki along the way. We then took a respite towards the top of a tower that provided a wonderful panoramic view of the city. Next, we hit up Gotokuji Temple where we took in the neighborhood and learned about the shrines (and the cats and the monks!). Mercifully, the temple was not crowded during our visit, which made admiring the temple much easier even in the rain. We finished the tour with more food offerings, and we even got to part ways at a train station convenient to our route home. I highly recommend KT and this tour!

Fantastic experience! Our guide Brian was excellent—he's lived in Japan for years and shared so much insider perspective that really enriched the tour. It was refreshing to also explore a less polished side of Japanese society. The food was delicious - both the snacks and the dinner.

We had a wonderful experience on this tour! Kenzo was a fantastic guide taking us through the Shinsekai neighborhood and walking us through all of the different dishes and drinks of Osaka. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend this tour!

Incredible food tour. Amazing, high-quality, and delicous food at several fun and lively places. Guide, Kenzo, was fantastic—highly knowledgeable and personable.

We had a very good time there as a family.
