A day & a meal with Hiroyuki san on 25th Sep in Osaka. It began with Hiroyuki san meeting me and my niece at our hotel and we walked out to a bright sunny day to catch the train to Osaka Castle. Enjoyed Hiroyuki san history lesson and practical guide on what to do at a nearby temple. The remaining day was spent in Kuromon Market, Dotombori surrounding area and unscheduled stop at Maneshiba Cafe. Hiroyuki san also assisted us to look for a good BBQ lunch. He also helped by taking many nice pictures of us. We had an enjoyable day with Hiroyuki san. Thank you.
It was very nice meeting you two yesterday. As I told you when we met, you were my first guests from Malaysia. I was a little nervous at first, but as you were very friendly, my nervousness was relieved immediately. I hope that you liked my Osaka tour. Please enjoy Japan. Oh, thank you very much for teaching me a lot about Malaysia, especially, seeing video of bon-odori was really interesting. Hiroyuki
My girlfriend and I had an amazing time with Yoshi! It was our first time in Osaka, and we were pretty jet-lagged from arriving 12 hours earlier. But Yoshi's enthusiasm was contagious. So friendly. He felt like a friend from the very first minute. He was also very knowledgeable about the history of Osaka, having been raised here. He was also extremely game to do anything, as well as answered all questions we had -- food, architecture, history, etc. Whenever we ducked into a store (which was often), he was right there to make sure we were okay, answered questions, and was always checking his itinerary so we had a plan on where to go next. We also had lunch, shared some on-the-go snacks at local vendors, showed us how to work the add/fare machines at train station, etc. It was exactly what we needed -- someone who was patient, fun, and very comfortable to be around. We walked over 15K steps, so make sure you have your walking shoes on! We HIGHLY recommend Yoshi! We would definitely hire him again.
Dear Kent Thank you for your evaluation! I am happy to hear it. I am surprised you had over 15K steps. Maybe Osaka castle was far from stations. I tried to talk about other destinations in Osaka or Nara for your trip. I hope it was good for you. Anyway, thank you very much. Yours sincerely, Yoshi
Spent 2 wonderful days with Kaori. Easy going and fun to be with. Knows the area well and speaks good English. She is very accommodating and is able to address your requests. We spent a great day in Nara. Thank you. Winston

We spent a wonderful day in Osaka with Tokie. She is a very professional and knowledgeable guide. Tokie is friendly, dynamic and very resourceful. If we come back to the Osaka area we will definitely ask for her assistance again. A great lady who deserves a big thank you!
