Super fun tour! Maria (guide) was caring, knowledgeable, and gave great insider tips on how to get around the city. She definitely considered our input to the itinerary and we packed a lot in our two hours, including some wonderful and unexpected hidden gems. Taking a tour with a guide really saved us from trying to figure out how to get from site to site on our own most efficiently.
Show moreSaw a lot more of the city than expected in the short amount of time we had booked.
Show moreWe loved our time on the tour. Maria was super knowledgeable, friendly, and was very open to our input in designing the tour. She gave us just enough interesting info about key sites so as not to overwhelm w/info, and had great answers when we asked for more details. We really enjoyed her local/insider take on train tickets, shopping, and photo areas. We did a lot and she was very generous with her time! She even sent us photos after our tour was done of other things to check out in the area. Highly recommend this tour!
Show moreMe and mom had a great start with the help of Max Yahagi from City Unscripted that guided us on our first trip at Osaka. We were toured on most of the tourist spots around area, including how to travel using the train and knowing spots that are not too common for tourists. Will definitely book again.
Show moreOur walking guide, Fumiko, was absolutely wonderful—friendly, easy to chat with, and incredibly knowledgeable about Osaka. She also had a great sense of humour, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to explore the city.
Show moreI had a great tour with Fumiko. She was friendly and knowledgeable and incorporated all the possible interested I listed in the questionnaire. I enjoyed her company and the tour.
Show moreAfter booking, you’ll complete a short questionnaire about your interests and travel style. We’ll match you with the best host who will tailor the experience to you. You'll have the opportunity to chat with them before the experience and agree on a plan.
Both! Your host will take you to iconic sights if you want to see them, but they’ll also introduce you to places and stories most travelers miss.
That’s completely fine! Select an experience theme or a flexible discovery experience, and after booking, answer a few questions so your host can design the perfect experience for you.
You can request a host, but since most hosts have other commitments, we can't guarantee they'll be available. However, we carefully match you with a host based on your interests and preferences, making it feel like exploring with a friend rather than a stranger.
Each host has their own personal relationship with the city. You'll experience the city through their eyes—hearing stories about places they love, discovering hidden gems, and learning what makes their city special in a way that goes beyond a typical tour.
This depends on the experience, but your host can adjust the pace to suit your comfort level.
Yes, you will be in touch with your host before your experience, and you can agree on a different meeting point with them. Your host can meet you anywhere central that’s convenient.
Hotel meet-ups are available upon request in central areas. If you're staying outside the city, your host will recommend the best meeting spot and guide you with directions.
