Eat, walk, drink and talk around Osaka - Hide was a wonderful host and guide. He showed me many cultural sites to start off our night, and moved into food, drink and conversation about the city, culture and travel. The food was delicious, the beer was cold and the conversation was enjoyable and enlightening. Hide showed a great depth into the history of Osaka as well as its development into “Japan’s kitchen”.

AMAZING FOOD, TOUR GUDIES & NIGHT SPENT - Best food tour in Osaka! Naru and Aika were our guides for this trip and were absolutely amazing. Not only were they super friendly and spoke very good English, they answered all of our questions about the city, culture, history and how to spend time on the rest of our stay. All of the food was excellent. It was very easy in a non overwhelming way to try 4 different cuisines in the heart of the city. We felt like we made real Japanese friends! It was an amazing experience, well worth the cost, and learned so many things we would haven’t known otherwise. We received amazing recommendations for things other than just the food. I will definitely be looking at more Magic Trip tours in other cities and for future trips. Naru and Aika thank you so much for the wonderful night, we can not thank you enough for making our first night in Osaka memorable. I will definitely recommend this to many friends!

THE BEST FOOD TOUR IN JAPAN! - If you’re thinking about taking a food tour in Japan, this has to be the best. I couldn’t imagine a better expierence than the Magic Trip foodie tour. Aika & Naru were so much fun to hang out with, and showed us an amazing night! Over three hours filled with incredible food, and local knowledge of Osaka and its history! Their English was amazing and they made us feel so welcome. We ate amazing food, and felt like ended the night with two new friends! We couldn’t have asked for a better start to our stay in Osaka, and will be booking more Magic Trip tours for our time in Japan! We can’t thank them enough for how they treated us, and the knowledge and recommendations they gave us for the rest of our trip! If you have the chance to take this tour, book it, you won’t regret it! Aika and Naru, thank you both so much, you’re amazing! We won’t forget how much fun we had tonight! If we could rate this better than five stars, we would!
