Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Max was really nice to me and my family, answering all of our weird quest About the city. He was very knowledgeable about Osaka and its history, and he was very well spoken in English which was nice "
"Max is a very intelligent, considerate and thoughtful guide. I’d give him 10 out of 10. We were a challenging group with different food requests, short attention spans and he was unlhased, entertained us and we learned a lot while seeing the Osaka castle and Dotombori "
"My son and I have been traveling in Japan for weeks and felt this tour with Maria was one of our favs. Maria was very informative and had insight that we would have never known by just walking around. She customized our tour to what we found interesting and was a pleasure to be around. We definitely recommend both Maria and the tour ❤️"
"David is a fantastic guide ! I wrote to him at midnight the day before our tour to ask him if we could visit a different location, and it was not a problem. He also agreed to meet us at our hotel as he could tell that I was afraid of getting lost. David is also super friendly, very fun to be with and very knowledgeable. He showed us the best spots off the beaten path so we could enjoy a quiet experience and take pictures from the most spectacular vantage points, with fewer tourists blocking our view. 😇 David also shared many interesting bits of information and pointed out things that I would never have noticed. To top it all off, he performed magic tricks to keep my 10 year old son entertained, which was the icing on the cake ! "
"Fay was a fantastic tour guide, super knowledgeable about Ōsaka and tailoring the tour to what we wanted to see. We had some great snack stops and lots of info to continue exploring Osaka during our stay. Would highly Recommend Fay!"
"Fay was super helpful in helping us plan the logistics for our family leading up to the tour. You can tell the tour was set up in a way to make sure our kids (4 in total) would not tire out and still enjoy it. In addition, Fay made sure to engage with the kids all day and not just talk to the adults. She handled our group of 8 very well and made sure EVERYONE had a good experience. I would highly recommend you book with Fay!"
"Kalid was an excellent guide and host. Chatty and friendly and we were able to do everything we wanted to do, plus a bonus of lunch in a tiny local restaurant we wouldn’t have found by ourselves ."
"We unintentionally threw all kinds of curveballs at Max and he showed up with grace and aplomb to ensure we had the very best experience of our night in Osaka at every turn. He’s fantastic. No hesitation, we’d book him again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommend."
"If I ever have the privilege and pleasure of returning to Osaka, Fay will be my first call. She was very knowledgeable about the city she loves and has a sparkling personality. She took us places we never would have found on our own and I really hope I have the chance to revisit them again someday, with Fay of course, because we didn’t have nearly enough time. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Don’t hesitate! Book Fay today. 🤩"
"Kalid was great! Very friendly, helpful and informative. Recommended him. "
