Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Our family with 2 children (ages 9 & 12) had an amazing food tour with Maria. We tried almost everything Osaka has to offer and with some secret gems too. Maria was very informative about the history of Osaka also and shared many insights about Japanese culture. I would highly recommend Maria. "
"My family (6 people total) had such a great time with Fay. Fay was friendly and funny, and it was easy to talk to her throughout the night. She made sure to plan the tour so that our two non-seafood eaters could have a great time as well. She was also really flexible due to weather delays causing us to be a bit late to the start of the tour. We loved getting the context behind the different foods she chose and were all so full by the end of the night. This tour was a vacation highlight for the adult children of the group! It was a great way to explore food in Osaka!"
"Best tour we’ve had using With Locals! We booked the Osaka food tour with Fay and had a wonderful time. Our group consisted of 2 adults and 6 teens with varying interests. Fay managed to find food that everyone was able to enjoy; even our picky eater and vegetarian! Fay has a friendly and welcoming personality which made talking with her very easy and engaging. We would recommend Fay to anyone!"
"We had a great time with Kalid! He took us to some fantastic spots and was very personable. We learned a lot about the foods in Osaka! Kalid was very engaging with all members of our family and was fun to tour with. If you are looking for a food tour in Osaka book Kalid!"
"Fay was an incredible host for our family while we visited the area. The food tour was one of the highlights of our time in Osaka, but what really impressed us was how much she cared about her guests. When my daughter wasn’t feeling well, Fay offered to help us navigate local doctors, pharmacies, and the healthcare system—something completely beyond the scope of a food tour. That level of kindness and service is rare. Fay wasn’t just a great guide; she was someone who genuinely looked out for our family. We would recommend her without hesitation."
"Our food tour with Hiromi was the perfect way to start our trip to Japan. As our first day in the country, it gave us a wonderful introduction to Osaka, its food, and its culture. We tried a variety of delicious local foods and enjoyed learning more about the city along the way. Hiromi also shared great recommendations that helped us make the most of the rest of our time in Osaka. She was especially kind and patient with our 6-year-old daughter, making sure she felt included and comfortable throughout the tour. We highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for a fun, welcoming, and delicious introduction to Osaka. "
"Maria was a gem! She catered to 2 pescatarians (no shellfish) and 3 meat-eaters. She took us to hidden gems and local standouts providing amazing food, history, culture, fun drinks and useful information. We had a blast. It was a truly very memorable day! EXCEPTIONAL!!!"
"Fay was such a delightful guide. She chose thoughtful, delicious dishes during our food tour. Each dish had a story behind it. Fay was knowledgeable about the Osaka food scene and Japan’s history in general. I highly recommend Fay!"
"Our Osaka food tour was absolutely incredible, and our host made the entire experience unforgettable. He was phenomenal—knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about sharing the beauty and history of Osaka. She took us to so many amazing spots, from iconic landmarks to hidden gems we never would have found on our own. Her insights into the culture, history, and local traditions made every stop even more meaningful. She was organized, engaging, and made sure everyone had a wonderful time throughout the tour. If you’re visiting Osaka, we highly recommend this tour host for an exceptional experience!"
"I can only recommend Fay! She considered the needs of our kids; while still showing us the great Osaka kitchen! We had a lot of fun and learned a lot from Fay, about local food but also culture! "
