Itinerary

Pass by

Taking pictures in front of the Glico man sign. The first thing that pops to mind and in the top results of respective search engines when Namba is mentioned is arguably the iconic Glico Running Man sign.

40 min

Unfussy kushikatsu eatery offering deep-fried & skewered meats & veggies with dipping sauces.

Pass by

From the flashy and gaudy gigantic store mascots and signs to almost otherworldy and charming spots like the Issun-boshi shrine in the Ukiyo Koji historical street, there are many interesting spots and sights in the area that your guide would be happy to introduce to you.

Pass by

Equally photo-worthy but on the very opposite of the spectrum is the solemn and moss-overgrown statue of Mizukake Fudo-o in the quaint and charming Hozenji temple.

40 min

Local restaurant with a lantern-lit facade offering okonomiyaki pancakes. Osaka sure loves its "konamono" - and while the starchy and carby flour-based dishes are indeed a soul food, the local cuisine has a lot more to offer.

Highlights

One drink and one food at each store visited (for Private Tour & Expense-Included Group Tour)

Walking / food tour

To be honest it was a bit dissapointing I have been on far better walking / food tours We thought the food a d drink was included ut was asked to pay

Operator response

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry for the misunderstanding. The tour you booked was our lower-priced option that does not include food, while we also offer a full option with meals included. We’ll review our descriptions to make this clearer, and we hope you’ll join us again for the complete experience.

Lots of fun, maneuvered through the crowds like a local

This was a lot of fun and really have to say our guide, Yayoi made it relaxing and such a great experience. She asked us what we liked, offered a few suggestions and then we were off. Great way to see the Osaka streets and try a variety of foods and drinks in otherwise a bit of an overwhelming and crowded experience. We knifed through the crowds like we were local. All the time she was taking pictures and sent at the end of the night. Highly recommend this fun and exciting tour! If your guide is Yayoi, it will even better. Enjoy!
