Osaka from Kobe port - We docked in Kobe, then took the train to Osaka. It was closer than we expected. We visited what was on our must-go, to Osaka Castle, Kuromon Market, Dotonbori. Michelle then suggested a couple other places, including a temple that uses its followers ashes to create their statues.
.
We enjoyed all that we saw, as well enjoyed Michelle’s energy and sense of humor. She gave us an in-depth view of Japan besides the tourists spots too. Highly recommend her.

Well done Michelle! Thanks for all you did for us. - We met Michelle at the JR Kobe railway station and we took the train to Osaka. First stop was the Osaka Castle and then the busy, busy downtown market area. We had Sumo Wrestling tickets we had to pick up and Michelle was an angel helping us to finally pick them up for the tournament next day. I was ready to give up due to the complexities involved, but Michelle persevered and she was successful. Lastly our visit to the Isshinji Temple was amazing.
