Rina K.

Hi I'm Rina. Thank you for your interest, and welcome to Japan. I was born and raised in Osaka, and I’m truly excited to show you both the city’s famous landmarks and its hidden gems. Osaka is full of incredible food and fun places to explore. I’m always thinking about how to design routes that feel comfortable for each guest and what kind of scenery will make them fall in love with this city. Seeing guests react with surprise and joy to the little moments in everyday Osaka is one of the most rewarding parts of guiding. My hope is simple: I want you to enjoy Osaka with ease and leave feeling even more connected to this place. I’m confident in my stamina — I’ve guided an eight‑hour tour without lunch — but I also offer slow‑paced, relaxing tours. Together, we’ll create a plan that matches your interests and energy level so you can enjoy the day without stress. You can count on me for the best timing to avoid crowds, truly delicious local spots, and places only Osaka residents know. My goal is to give you a warm, memorable experience that makes you think, “I want to come back to Osaka again.” I look forward to guiding you through an Osaka you’ll want to return to.

Syed atif Y.

A Local Friend in Kansai — Meet Atif Hey there! I’m Atif, a travel lover who’s been calling Osaka home for the past few years. What started as a curious adventure quickly turned into a deep love for this region — the food, the people, and all the little hidden corners that make Kansai so special. Now, I spend my days sharing those discoveries with travelers who want to see the real Japan — not just the postcard version. What I Offer Fun & Flexible Tours: No boring scripts here! I plan each tour around you — whether you love taking photos, tasting street food, exploring quiet temples, or getting lost in neon-lit backstreets. Local Secrets: After years of wandering Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, and Kobe, I’ve found the best hidden gems — from tiny noodle shops to peaceful gardens and back-alley shrines. Laughs & Memories: My tours aren’t just about facts — they’re about fun. Expect stories, local legends, and maybe even a karaoke challenge (if you’re brave enough)! Why Travel with Me Because travel should feel like exploring with a local friend, not following a flag in a crowd. I love good food, spontaneous detours, and showing people the Kansai that most tourists miss. Whether it’s your first visit or your fifth, I’ll make sure you experience something new — and unforgettable. Let’s Start the Adventure! Ready to explore Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, or Kobe? Let’s laugh, learn, eat, and wander together — Kansai style!

I'm a Certified English Interpreter Guide accredited by Kyoto, Uji, and Otsu cities — top performer in Kyoto's official training program and selected for Japan’s elite government project for VIP luxury travel. Having lived in 7 countries for 30 years — including 9 years in the U.S. (California, New York, and Texas) — I bring a truly global perspective and deep cultural understanding to every tour. A descendant of Hijikata Toshizo, one of Japan’s legendary “last samurai,” I was raised with a strong appreciation for history and the bushido spirit.

From fun street food adventures to refined cultural and luxury experiences, I design each private tour to match your interests and create unforgettable moments that last a lifetime. I look forward to welcoming you and sharing the true heart of Japan!

Jonathan R.

Hi, my name is Jonathan, Join me and help me craft an incredible experience in my favorite part of the world, Kansai. Join me in an unforgettable experience exploring Kansai with me and my highly modified Mitsubishi Evo 6 'Gokuro San'. I've lived in Japan for 18 years, I know Kansai inside out, and I work in the car export industry in Japan. Join me for my favorite tour, the JDM Experience, and cruise the Kanjo loop with me at night. Or explore the Ikoma 'Drift' Mountains with me for a day trip (this can also be incredible at night!). Also, send me a custom tour request, and I can custom build something for you! We could check out a car auction, head to a Japanese racetrack, or tour the Kyoto or Nara 'drift' mountains. Why not build a combination of both? Send me a message, and we can build an unforgettable experience. I speak fluent Japanese, I can help with translations; I know all the best spots for food and drink. Send me a message; and even if I can't help, I can point you in the right direction. See you on tour!

Junior Y.

Hi, I’m Junior. I was born in Brazil and I’ve been living in Japan for several years. Coming here as a foreigner shaped the way I see the country not from a textbook, but through daily life, work, and real relationships. Over time, I became deeply connected to Japanese culture, history, and also to Japan’s car scene. Japan isn’t just temples and shrines; it’s also craftsmanship, attention to detail, passion and car culture reflects that perfectly. From classic JDM icons to rare, low-production vehicles and underground scenes, it’s a side of Japan that many visitors never get to experience or fully understand. I work with cars professionally, but I also see them as part of Japan’s cultural identity. The same mindset that built ancient temples exists in the way cars are designed, maintained, and respected here. If you’re interested in Japan beyond the surface, its history, its mindset, and the culture that connects tradition and modern passion — I’d be happy to share that with you

大阪一日精彩遊（看,吃,玩三位一體)

Osaka

8 hours

“The Experience with Satoshi San is recommended to Everyone 本次的出游体验值得推荐给所有人”

Rather than rushing through tourist attractions, I personally believe that the most important thing about traveling is to connecting with the local people and culture, so we booked this experience. Before the trip, I had higher expectations for the professionalism, meticulousness, and reliability of the Japanese people, but Mr. Kitazawa's performance exceeded my expectations. Mr. Kitazawa majored in Chinese at university and is a licensed tour guide officially registered in Japan. His overall language competency, itinerary planning, understanding of social realities, introduction of attractions, and arrangement of meals are all impeccable. The competency to maintain interest in a 9-year-old is truly astonishing, leaving even the parents feeling inadequate. Unlike the previous day at Universal Studios (where they even bought a U-Pass), the child, under Grandpa Kitazawa's guidance, didn't utter a single complaint for the entire 8 hours. When choosing a lunch restaurant in Shinsekai, Mr. Kitazawa was very concerned about the 300 JPY pre-meal snack fee charged by the restaurant and tried to lead us to a restaurant that did not charge this fee. This small detail shows his professionalism and character. I look forward to my next two-day trip to Kyoto with Mr. Kitazawa and will recommend him to all tourists visiting Japan. 相较于走马观花的刷景点，个人认为出游更重要的是与当地的人与文化产生联系，所以我们预约了本次的体验。出行之前对于日本人民的职业、细致、靠谱有着较高的预期，但是北泽先生的表现还是超过了我的预期。北泽先生大学本科的专业是汉语而且是日本官方注册的持证导游。无论是整体的语言能力、对于行程的计划、对于社会事实的洞悉、景点介绍、餐食的安排都堪称完美。对于9岁小朋友的兴趣调动维持能力，更是让人惊叹，使得亲爸亲妈自愧不如，与前一日在环球影城不同（even 买了优速通），小朋友在北泽爷爷的带领下，全天8小时都没有唧唧歪歪。在新世界选择午餐餐馆时，北泽先生对于商家收取的300JPY餐前小吃费非常介怀并尝试带领我们找到不收取此费用的商家，见微知著，可见其职业素养与人品。期待着下次与北泽先生的京都的2日行程,并将北泽桑推荐给所有的赴日游客.

Thank you for your review. You were very good at traveling, especially for your age. We enjoyed the statues and shrines. I hope you enjoyed the nice restaurant we went to for lunch.
