I dream of returning to Osaka. Thanks to Hugo our guide who understood what we were looking for. - Osaka modern and traditional city. Its castle is splendid view from the roof top Blues birds (entrance near the castle) . The kuromon market where you can eat. . The city is a great carnival day and night. A big thank you to Hugo our guide who took us to see all these places and unlikely galleries off the beaten track and discover the best okonomiyakis. I dream of going back. Merci Hugo.

Hugo is the best tour guide - Hugo is a fantastic tour guide. He has a great personality and knows Kyoto and Osaka very well.
Before we left for our cruise we booked Hugo for a private tour for 2 days in Kyoto and Osaka. He met us at the Osaka pier and we took off and had 2 wonderful days. We saw everything we wanted to see plus more. Kyoto, Osaka and Hugo were a highlight of our 18 day trip to Japan.

Fantastic private tour in Osaka - Hugo was waiting for us as soon as we arrived at the port, he was friendly and polite. He asked us if there was anything in particular we wanted to do/see but we let Hugo lead the way, the tour was excellent, taking the train, seeing the castle, fish market, mini America, temple, lovely wee back streets. Greet to meet you and share a couple of beers, & making sure we got back on the right train haha Thank you Hugo
