About this activity
Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Osaka Castle, 1-1 Osakajo, Chuo-ku, Osaka 540-0002 Osaka Prefecture
We think the park Osaka Castle is in, and the exterior of the castle are splendid and rewarding to visit. The tired, poorly designed non-castle interior: Not so much. So we don't go in. Trust us, you're not missing anything.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Osaka Tsuruhashi Ichiba, 1~2 Chome Tsuruhashi, Ikuno-ku, Osaka 544-0031 Osaka Prefecture
Explore this fabulous time-warp of a market, where fashion, food, and culture noisily collide and birth something wonderful. There's not much pre-war Osaka left to explore, but this is a champion of a local sight. It also highlights the Korean influence on the city.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Abeno Harukas, 1-1-43 Abenosuji, Abeno, Osaka 545-0052 Osaka Prefecture
So, we don't pay the money to go to the very top of the building, but we know a way to get almost as good a view without waiting in line, and without paying a shiny yen for the privilege either. Afterwards, we go down underground and explore the mysteries of the Japanese department store food hall and markets area. Ready for the most expensive melon you've ever seen? Look but don't touch :)
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Shinsekai, Ebisuhigashi, Naniwaku, Osaka 556-0002 Osaka Prefecture
This entertainment district dating back around a hundred years has all sorts of sights in store for you, some shiny, and some with a rather worn patina. Both are lots of fun to take in. It's a boisterous center of Osaka culture, and for good reason!
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Dotonbori, Dotombori, Chuo-ku, Osaka 542-0076 Osaka Prefecture
Sure, we want to show you the less touristed parts of Osaka on this tour, but we'd be remiss to not show you the famous "running man" and Dotonbori at large. But we also take you down some small backstreets even here, and we've got a few interesting stories to tell you as well.

Reviews
Trains took a lot longer than expected and unfortunately we arrived exactly 5 minutes late. We tried joining up at the next spot, but could not find the group, did not know what we were looking for so eventually gave up, was hoping there might be some flexibility but no. Don't be late
My brother and I had a wonderful time exploring Osaka with Kevin. His knowledge of the city meant we visited sites we would otherwise not have seen. He went out of his way to ensure my brother, who is confined to a wheelchair, was able to access all the sights along the way. Kevin's dry sense of humour was an added bonus, as was his recommendation for dinner that night. The tour is a must for visitors who would like to see more than just the main attractions and learn a little about life in Osaka.
great way to view the city through unusual streets.
