Lovely Obaachan tour - This lunch tour gave us a heartwarming family memory. At a tiny teppan shop, a sweet obaachan welcomed us like her own grandchildren. She patiently showed the kids how to flip okonomiyaki, and we all laughed and learned together. It felt like visiting a local grandma’s kitchen — warm, personal, and unforgettable.

Best tour - My husband and I wanted to experience the real Osaka, and Hiro’s Tennoji day tour was exactly what we were looking for! We started by exploring a beautiful temple, away from the usual tourist crowds, where Hiro shared fascinating stories that gave us a deeper appreciation of the area. It felt like we had stepped into a different world, rich with history and local charm. The highlight was definitely the okonomiyaki! Hiro took us to a small, local restaurant where we got to watch the chefs prepare it right in front of us. The crispy yet fluffy texture and rich flavors were absolutely amazing. This tour was the perfect way to enjoy an authentic Osaka experience, and we felt like we got a true taste of local life. Thanks, Hiro!

Perfect family day - Traveling with my wife and son, we were looking for a fun and family-friendly way to experience Osaka, and Hiro made it absolutely perfect! We started our day exploring a beautiful temple, where Hiro shared interesting stories that even kept our son engaged. The atmosphere was peaceful, and it was a great way to take a break from the city’s hustle. Then came the highlight for our son—okonomiyaki! Watching it being cooked right in front of us and then tasting the crispy, fluffy, and savory pancakes was an experience we won’t forget. The food was incredible, and Hiro made sure everything was just right for our family. This tour was the perfect mix of culture, history, and delicious food, and we couldn’t have asked for a better start to our Osaka trip! Thanks, Hiro!

Discovering the Charm of Tennoji - Exploring Tennoji during the day was an unforgettable experience! The peaceful atmosphere of the temple, combined with Hiro’s insightful stories, made the visit even more special. After soaking in the history, we headed to a local okonomiyaki spot, where we had some of the best savory pancakes I’ve ever tasted. The crispy outside and fluffy inside, packed with flavor, was simply perfect. This tour was the ideal mix of culture, history, and delicious food—I highly recommend it for anyone visiting Osaka! Thanks,Hiro!

Lunchtime Highlight - Booked based upon previous reviews & midday availability. Ben is friendly, energetic & has a solid understanding of English. He knew all the best picture locations during our temple tour, while also ensuring we experienced the few interactive opportunities. By far, the highlight was our visit to the pancake restaurant. This is a small husband & wife restaurant that we would have never found on our own. The experience here was worth the tour price alone. After this comfort food moment, Ben walked us through a park to one of the best takoyaki spots in town. Definitely recommend this tour, just know that you will need to pay additional to enter the temple & for the food/drinks at the restaurant, which includes the tour guides.
