Osaka
9 hours

There are so many temples on Mount Koya. The famous graveyard is also massive. The scene is mysterious. It takes about two hours by train from Osaka, but you are in another world once you arrive. You can learn about Buddhism in Japan while immersed in a unique atmosphere there. Mt. Koya is the headquarters of the Shingon sect of Japanese esoteric Buddhism. High Priest Kukai founded it and began building temples here. I will explain why the Japanese people love Kukai.

(Highlights) The present castle building looks beautiful, powerful and in perfect harmony with the surrounding environment. However, it was the venue of hegemony, bloody conflicts and natural disasters for many centuries. Once you visit the castle, you will be amazed at the magnificent structures, huge moats and the beautiful natural environment. The view from the top of the eight-storied donjon is splendid. You can reach there either by going up the steep stairways or taking an elevator ride. The castle is in the heart and the landmark of Osaka city, where many modern buildings stand. (How to enjoy) You can enjoy a leisurely walk along the one-kilometer road leading to the castle after you get off the train and, once inside the precincts, you cannot spare even a moment without marveling at the sight of an ancient technology and human wisdom, as well as the huge rocks building up the protection walls. Not only seeing the buildings, you can also sit on the grass and enjoy having lunch with your family members or friends. (Others) The entrance fee is 600 yen per person and the JR Osaka Loop Line train fare is 300 yen for the ride from Osaka to Osaka-jo-koen station.

Osaka Nightlife Tours

Tour of Osaka Tenjin-matsuri Festival / Cruising on the rivercover image

Tour of Osaka Tenjin-matsuri Festival / Cruising on the river

Osaka
4 hours

(Highlights) Held in the evening of July 25 each year, this festival attracts more than a million spectators. Dozens of rafts full of invited, kimono-clad people towed by small boats go upstream the major river in the heart of Osaka, while on-lookers watch from the river bank, nearby bridges and the pier. There stand stalls selling varieties of food, filling in every nook and corner of the river bank. Thousands of fireworks are shot up into the night sky to the great enjoyment of visitors. (Origin of the festival) The myth says that in the year 951, two years after God descended from heaven and settled in the Tenmangu Shrine, they flowed a sacred float in the river from the nearby beach and a funeral hall was built and "misogi" purification ceremony held at the shore where the float reached. Then, those living near the shrine and worshipers built a ship to contributed to the shrine. (How to enjoy) You can see rafts full of "yukata"-clad people in the festive mood on board slowly going upstream the river, while being soaked in the cool evening atmosphere. After dark, fireworks setting the skies ablaze make you sigh in joyful excitement. You can have whatever food you like at the stalls built in the riverbank. (Transportation) The JR train fare from Kyoto station to Osaka station is 560 yen and the subway fare, 180 yen. (Others) Since the venue is very crowded, please do your utmost in protecting yourself from being bumped by others and from theft. If you are there on the days other than the festival day, you can enjoy cruising on board a sightseeing ship called "Osaka water-bus" for a fee of 1,700 yen for one-hour ride. You can see the landscape of Osaka city from different angles as the ship sails along the river. Daytime only, however.

The Abeno and the Ten-noji area is the commercial center and transportation hub of Southern Osaka. Abeno Harukas has an observatory deck on the 59th and 60th floor, "Tenku Teien" or Sky Garden on the 58th floor and an observatory restaurant on the 57th floor. The Osaka Marriott Miyako Hotel is on the 19th, the 20th floor, and also from the 38th to the 55th floor. Offices are on the 21st to the 37th floor. There's a museum on the 16th floor and the Kintetsu Department Store covers everything from the 14th floor down to the B2 level. In particular, the 360 degree panoramic view of Osaka city from the top floor is a picturesque night scene because there aren't any high buildings around the ABENO HARUKAS. Inside the Kintetsu Department Store you will find many luxury brand boutiques, shops and restaurants. I'm sure you'll enjoy shopping and eating there. There are also many restaurants at Q's mall, Mio, or Tennoji Station Building, which are buildings around the ABENO HARUKAS.

An Excellent Guide & Wonderful Evening

As our first time to Japan and a culture as alien as can be considered as an Englishman, my partner and I agreed that we would benefit from a local guide, not just to places of interest but also about life in Japan and the Japanese culture from J-Pop, Otaku, Izakaya, Work, Life, Beer and Sake! Using the GoWithGuide website, Kazu’s profile caught our eye. We messaged him with a high-level outline of what we were looking for. Within 30 minutes we got a reply with an initial hello and welcome, which was really nice and comforting, and further information about him and what he could do for us. This combined with the information on his profile and subsequent interactive messages, confirmed Kazu would be the ideal personal guide for us and confirmed the booking through the GoWithGuide website. Over the next couple of days, Kazu remained in contact with us feeling like he was going the extra mile to make sure we had thought of everything and offering suggestions for consideration. On the day of our session, Kazu kept in contact and he met us at the hotel. From then he was super attentive, making sure we were happy, enjoying ourselves, experiencing the local culture and etiquette. The Japanese know how to provide a service and Kazu’s tailor-made service was second to none. He took us to all the places and local experiences we wanted to savour including pop culture, arcades, Izakaya Experiences, Beer, Sake and shopping. We felt he gave us a super overview and understanding of everyday life in Osaka. It was as though we were out with a friend for the evening. We can highly recommend Kazu’s personal guide service and Kazu as a professional & an individual. We are planning to come back to Osaka in 2025 and will look up Kazu to book another personal guide. To “Kazu”: “Thank you so much for the experience, we feel we have made a friend and we hope to catch up next time, Damian & Quango”.

Great day with Atsuko

Our group of 7 had an amazing experience with Atsuko on her tour in Osaka! She was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive, making the entire experience both enjoyable and enriching. Atsuko’s deep understanding of Osaka’s history, culture, and hidden gems truly brought the city to life. Whether we were exploring historic landmarks, bustling markets, or peaceful neighborhoods, she shared fascinating stories and insights that made each stop memorable. What stood out most was Atsuko’s ability to tailor the tour to the group’s interests and pace, ensuring everyone felt comfortable and engaged. Her warmth and genuine enthusiasm for Osaka shone through, making it feel like I was exploring the city with a close friend. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to discover the authentic charm of Osaka. Atsuko’s passion for her city is contagious, and I left with not only incredible memories but also a deeper appreciation for this vibrant city.

Susan V.

Hello Ms. Susan, Thank you for joining my tour yesterday. I really appreciate your kind words and review. I enjoyed the Osaka tour with you, your family, friends, and your ship's friends. We changed the Kyoto tour to Osaka tour. Your decision was great for us. Everyone relaxed and had a wonderful time in Osaka. I am happy to hear you truly enjoyed this tour. Please visit Kyoto next year as you mentioned. I am looking forward to seeing you next November. Please the rest of your journey and say hello to everyone. Thank you. Best regards, Atsuko

Chihayagawa Trout fishing tour

Osaka
8 hours

Customized

A fishing trip to remember...

Thanks to Tomo my interest in going fishing in the mountains in Japan came true. Thankfully the autumn colours were on show surrounding the fishing location which was a bonus as we had not seen much colour during our tour of Japan. Tomo was a great help in arranging the entry to the fishing ponds and after we had caught enough then arranging for the fish to be prepared three ways for lunch, which was very delicious. Tomo has excellent English language skills, and is someone who is very easy to chat with, which made for a very enjoyable day. In terms of the overall day, I didn't plan enough after the fishing to get full use of the time available, although a detour to a shopping centre on the way back did allow us to stock up on packaged food items to bring back as treats. Overall, we were very happy that we had Tomo as our guide and the trout fishing and it's setting were very memorable. Whilst Tomo's passion is the outdoors (of which Japan has truly exceptional tracts of it), I would strongly recommend him as a guide for a range of tour options. Thank you Tomoe for a memorable day.
