Experience Food tours in the best of
Kobe with Withlocals

"I had an amazing experience on this food tour, and a huge part of that was thanks to our Fay. From the very beginning, she was friendly and knowledgeable about the local food scene. What really stood out was how she went beyond just explaining the dishes, history, and insider tips that made each stop feel special and authentic. You could tell that fay genuinely love what she dose and takes pride in her tour. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting, especially if you’re lucky enough to have this guide. Fay turned a simple food tour into a memorable cultural experience. "

"Kalid was somkind and took us to places we would have not otherwise visited. He was also very patient and accommodating and even spent extra time with us. Highly recommend!!"

"Fay was fantastic to work with. She was very communicative before the tour. We had a group of 8 people (4 kids) and she made sure that the kids AND adults were engaged and having fun. We had to make a few adjustments based on the needs of kids, and Fay either automatically did it herself or helped when the adults needed to on the spot. It was a great introduction to the food scene on our first night in Osaka. We went back to one of the locations later in the week because we liked it so much. Do yourself a favor and book with Fay. "

"​I booked this tour last minute, and it was absolutely worthwhile! While we had explored Dotonbori on our own, I’m certain we wouldn’t have discovered the unique spots Fey showed us in Shinsekai without her expertise. She even met us at our hotel and helped us purchase IC cards, which proved to be a total lifesaver for the rest of our trip. ​Beyond the fantastic food, her deep knowledge and storytelling added a layer of context that made the experience truly special. Fey is incredibly easy to talk to, making the whole outing feel like a breeze. I highly recommend booking a tour with her!"

"Our group of 11 people really enjoyed the food tour with Fay. It was honestly the best we've ever had and we travel a lot! She is knowledgeable, super fun and easygoing. Her english is perfect. The food we tried was amazing. Don't hesitate any second to book a tour with her, you will not regret it. Thanks again, see you next time!"

"Great afternoon with Fay! She was very knowledgable of the area and took us to many places that would never had been on our radar and had it all lined up so we had tables reserved and ready when we got to each place! She also was able to provide some history of the area and the shops, which was very interesting and improved the overall experience. She did well to accommodate my request for more authentic, local food experiences and provided great food for my younger kids and me! If you do get a chance to complete this tour with Fay, make sure to request the Sumo Saki! Kanpai!!! (she taught us that one!)"

"Fay was the first and only tour we did in Osaka. She was incredible at giving us fun glimpses of the history and culture of Osaka, especially compared to Japan as a whole. We had an absolutely amazing food experiences, and went to places we would not have found or ventured into on our own. Highly recommend!"

"Hiroki was a great guide. He showed is around a vibrant area of Osaka. The food options were excellent and unique. Between restaurants we had some fun in an arcade and at a cork shooting range. It was a very. I’ve evening, I’d highly recommend booking with Hiroki!"

"Maria did a great job of deciding where we would do this tour - having already had 2 days in Osaka. She picked the Billiken area and it was perfect. We love finding truly local, out of the way places to try the local fare. She nailed it - we had a perfect evening in Osaka!"

"I did the tastings and drinks tour. It was exactly what I needed. Casual, fun, informative and meeting people in cozy areas where each of the foods were delicious and the drinks enjoyable. Maria was able to quickly understand my needs and personality and if we went to fabulous fun spots. We had Kushi katsu, Takoyaki and Oden at Shin Sekai. We stopped for some rattlesnake and herb drink. Yes, there was a rattlesnake in the jar of alcohol and herbs. Each stop was fun with the people. If you are looking for adventure, tasty food, challenging drinks and casual fun. Maria is the one. I highly recommend her. By the way the octopus balls (takiyaki) were delicious. "
