Our guide did a phenomenal job. We hit an eating place that was off the beaten path and the food was delicious.
Teppei was an excellent guide showing us some of the classic Osaka dishes alongside points of interest along the way. He was personable and spoke excellent English. He took lots of photos for us which was very kind of him.
