Amazing food, drinks, and tour with an awesome guide who knows his stuff! - Scott really knows his stuff. He’s a history nerd and speaks very fluent Japanese. He knows loads of cool facts about Osaka, the food, and Japan as a whole. The food we had was great! The chicken was my favourite for sure. Some great drinks along the way too. Give the hot sake a try ;-) Overall the whole tour was perfect. It wasn’t too long and we weren’t walking for too long between dishes. It’ll round off your evening very nicely indeed.

Delicious and fun! - It was our first night in Osaka and we loved every bit of this food tour. Shout out to our guide Andy who made the evening super informative and fun. Andy caters to your food preferences and restrictions if you have any. We tried delicious foods at unique spots we never would've discovered on our own. I highly recommend.

Get closer to Osaka - We enjoyed our walking tour of Osaka with Scott very much. He was easy to talk to, knowledgeable from history all the way to Japanese cuisine and on to how to find the nearest good toilet. We started at the castle and covered the fishmarket, the techie - and the entertainment district. These would not normally be our main interests but Scott made it lively and interesting and we now feel closer to the "real" Japan. All sampled food and drinks were delicious! Something different and highly enjoyable!

Local Osaka Man Causes Australian Tourist To Eat Themself Into A Coma - I can't think of a better way to truely experience Osaka than to tag along with Andy to his local area and sample almost all of the must-do dishes. This tour is mainly street food which means you can really get a taste of a huge variety of dishes and styles. 10/10 would feast again!

Great food, top notch tour guide - Scott was so great! He created a very friendly casual atmosphere and it's clear that he loves this city. His familiar relationship with the restaurant owners and staff made us feel like we were in good hands. The food was amazing we went to some really small restaurants that we never would have ended up in otherwise. Our plan was to do this tour at the beginning of our trip and cross all the must-try foods off the list and that was definitely the right choice.

Must do! - This was an absolute highlight for us. Andy is an incredible guide with great contacts and amazing knowledge of Osaka and the food scene. The food was fantastic - and there was a whole lot of it with a little karaoke thrown in for good measure. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who loves trying new food with good company and a laugh.
