This was my families second trip to Japan and we felt we needed to get some local knowledge to help us see the more of Osaka’s history so we chose a tour with Aki.
During the planning of our tour, Aki wanted to know what exactly we wanted to do and see which was nice because we didn’t want some generic tour, we wanted to see a few spots that we had personally picked, however Aki also added some amazing touches like a Tea Ceremony, lunch at a local spot, and Tea shopping for my son. Aki then drafted an itinerary and made sure we like the plan before we finalized the tour. On the day of the tour Aki prepped us and explained exactly how the day was going to go.
Not only was Aki incredibly knowledgeable on the spots we had picked, but also was very accommodating to our general questions about Japan. His English is very good and he was easy to communicate with.
If we make it back to Osaka we will certainly see Aki again for another tour!!!
Thank you so much for choosing my tour! It was a hot day, but we visited several spots and had lunch at local restaurant. Hope you enjoyed a lot. See you when you come back to Japan😀 —Aki
A great experience

Aki is a great guy and he knows and loves the city. If you wanna spend some time with a local and get the chance of a different perspective on Osaka, that's the guide for you. Besides, he really got what I was looking for and planned accordingly. A great experience.
Thank you for choosing my tour! It was fun walking around Tenma with you! Hope to see you again someday😀 —Aki
We would highly recommend Aki

We really enjoyed our three hour tour with Aki. Osaka came at the end of our trip and was probably the city we knew the least about. He made us very comfortable, showed us a lot of the fun and character that makes this city unique. He showed us some great local food spots and took great photos away from the crowds. He was so much fun to spend a day with and really made our time here special. We would highly recommend Aki to others visiting Osaka!
Thank you for finding&choosing my tour! It was a nice weather and we had a fun walk around Dotonbori area. I’m super glad that you enjoyed exploring with me. Travel safe! —Aki

Great guy, great day.

Our group of 4 enjoyed this experience with Aki. He’s very friendly and knowledgeable. More importantly he made us all feel very comfortable. The tour felt very relaxed and was more like taking a stroll through the area while talking to a friendly local. We were allowed to take a look at whatever we felt like on the way without having to stick to a strict schedule but Aki still knows how to naturally move things along. Would recommend this activity to anyone looking for a chance at learning about Osaka in a more authentic format. Great guy, great day.
Thank you so much for selecting my tour, Raoul. We had a great day in Shinsekai. Hope you will enjoy the rest of your stay in Japan! —Aki
I highly recommend him.
