Rina K.

Hi, I’m Rina! Thank you for your interest, and welcome to Japan. I was born and raised in Osaka, and I still live here with my husband and our son. I love English and traveling, and I started tour guiding in July 2025. I regularly play tennis, and I enjoy listening to Fuji Kaze — he’s my favorite artist. Of course, I also love eating and drinking; enjoying good food and drinks is a big part of my life. Osaka is full of amazing food and fun places to explore. I’m always thinking about how to create routes that feel comfortable for each guest and what kind of scenery will make them fall in love with this city. I love seeing guests react with surprise and joy to the little things in everyday Osaka — those moments are truly rewarding for me. My hope is simple: I want you to enjoy Osaka with ease, and I want you to 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.

KONNICHIWA!! I’m Niko! I’ve lived in Australia and worked at the Osaka Expo 2025. Through those experiences, I met people from all over the world — we hung out together, and I loved taking them to hidden local spots that tourists usually don’t find, like cozy cafés, local restaurants, and beautiful nature spots. I’m a very friendly person who loves learning new things. I enjoy not only sharing unique and lesser-known sides of Japan, but also hearing stories about your country and anything you’d like to talk about! I’m a big FOODIE! (Please go to my galleries!) Please let me make you try my favorite Japanese foods!! I also love taking a pictures and will always bring my camera with me, , so I can take beautiful photos of you during the tour — and you’ll get them on the spot as a little gift ! Providing warm hospitality to people is truly my joy. You won’t regret joining my tour — I promise! Can’t wait to meet you soon!

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!

Sawyer S.

After studying western religion, I flew to Japan to study Buddhism & Shinto. I trained as a monk in the Japanese alps of Fukui prefecture, and learned traditional crafts including washi paper-making, knife making, and tea ceremony. I've visited all 47 prefectures of Japan in my decade in Japan. Now I live in Kyoto, which has some of the grandest temples and shrines in all of Japan. My goal is to find joy through connection and share what I've learned. As I'm new to GoWithGuide and seeking reviews, I'm currently offering discounted rates!

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

Kiyomi A.

Yokoso! Life is a journey! all about learning something new ! Lived in 7 different countries in my life, I’ve working in service industry for quite sometime. Now based in Japan and working as an English Teacher/tour guide.

My favorite place to visit with my guests is Kasuga Taisha, Nara, along with Deer park. Recently reading Japanese Mythology to understanding Shintoism better. I used to live in India and love to find connection between their country and ours in Buddhism temple :) My hobby is ballet ( watching , doing ), Movies, Traveling( visit places and stay there locals ) World is one ;)

Visiting Nara from Osaka ～truly the must-see place in Japan～

Visiting Nara from Osaka ～truly the must-see place in Japan～

Nara: the must-see place in Japan. Nara was the capital of ancient Japan before Kyoto became the capital. In the Nara era, Buddhism played an important role in stabilizing the country. So you can see many big old temples there. Many of these are listed as UNESCO World Heritage sites and are concentrated in a small area. So, if you have only one free day to spend in the Kansai area, I highly recommend visiting Nara.

It was amazing to know Osaka and in a little time, we only had a tour four a day but Ali made sure we understood some of the history and see the best part!!. I would totally recommend it, he went for us at our lobby of the hotel and let us in dotonbori for us to explore for our own. It was so good!

“Ein Ausflug mit Gegensätzen ”

Wir hatten eine tolle Tour mit Yuta in Osaka. Wir sind mit den öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln vom Kreuzfahrthafen in Kobe gefahren. In Osaka haben wir zuerst die Burg besucht. Sehr beeindruckend und interessant. Ganz oben mit einem tollen Ausblick auf die Stadt. Danach ging es wieder mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln zum Namba Viertel mit der berühmten Dotonbori Strasse. Hier ist es sehr lebendig, voller Reklame, bunten Läden, vielen Lokalen. Wir haben sehr lecker gegessen, Reisbowl - Reis mit hauchdünn geschnittenen Rindfleisch, Käse und rohen Eiern. Yuta hat uns toll durch den Tag begleitet, er hat uns viel erzählt. Wir empfehlen Ihnen und diese Tour auf jeden Fall weiter.

Yuta I.

Vielen lieben Dank für deine tolle Nachricht! Es hat mir wirklich Spaß gemacht, euch zu begleiten, vor allem, weil ihr an den wichtigsten Orten so viel Interesse gezeigt und viele Fragen gestellt habt:) Darauf einzugehen war für mich eine Freude.Und gutes Essen zu empfehlen ist tatsächlich eine meiner Stärken, deshalb freut es mich umso mehr, dass es euch so gut geschmeckt hat!! Eure Freude ist auch meine Freude. Danke, dass ihr mich und die Tour weiterempfehlt! Wiedersehen!
