Rina K.

Welcome to Osaka! Hi, I’m Rina, and I’m truly excited to guide you through the vibrant city of Osaka! As a native Japanese, I bring a unique perspective on Japan’s rich culture, traditions, and everyday life. Osaka is known for its delicious street food, lively atmosphere, and deep history, and I’m here to take you on an unforgettable journey through its famous landmarks and hidden gems. Whether you’re eager to explore the historic Osaka Castle, wander through the neon-lit streets of Dotonbori, or experience the warmth of local markets, I’ll help you dive into the authentic Osaka experience. Beyond sightseeing, I’ll introduce you to the Osaka way of thinking, from its humorous and welcoming spirit to the best-kept secrets that only locals know. Whether you’re planning a visit, looking for travel tips, or simply curious about the soul of this incredible city, let’s embark on this adventure together! I hope to make your time in Osaka truly unforgettable—your personal handbook to Osaka awaits! ***************************************** A few things I love: - Visiting local bakeries and trying seasonal breads - Discovering cozy cafés with great coffee and atmosphere - Enjoying sake and craft drinks at hidden bars - Browsing unique lifestyle shops and handmade goods - Finding quiet spots in the city to slow down and recharge - Spotting charming signage, nostalgic storefronts, and tiny alleyway gems

Koichi W.

Hi! I'm Koichi. I was born in Osaka, I studied in Kyoto when I was a university student. Now I live in Shiga next to Kyoto. I am a national government licensed tour guide. I have been guiding about 160 groups over the past twelve months. I usually guide my customers mainly in Kansai region including Kyoto, Nara, Osaka, Kobe and Shiga by public transportation systems. Well, I am curious about Japanese history, especially the history of Japan's ancient times since I was raised next to the world biggest mausoleum of the ancient Emperor called "Nintoku" in Sakai city Osaka which has just become one of the world cultural heritage sites. I dug out some ancient earthen ware vessels around there when I was a primary school student like the adventure archaeologist “Indiana Jones"　(It’s our secret!!). That was my hobby. Now, one of my hobbies is outdoor activities such as mountaineering, kayaking, skiing and others. So I would like to take you to some good places where you can enjoy Japanese unique nature. I love to guide foreign visitors from all over the world. I think it is my calling or heavenly given job. Let's go and enjoy together! I hope to see you soon.

Nikki K.

I am a Certified English Interpreter Guide certifed by Kyoto City, Uji City, and Otsu City (recognized as the top performer in my training program!). I have lived in 7 countries—the US, Canada, the UK, Malaysia, Russia, Vietnam, and Iran—including 9 years in the US (California, New York and Texas). These experiences allowed me to embrace diverse cultures and develop a truly global perspective. I am also a descendant of Hijikata Toshizo, one of Japan’s legendary “last samurai.” My family runs a private museum dedicated to his life and legacy, and I was raised with a deep respect for traditional Japanese culture and the spirit of bushido. With this background, I guide international guests with a Japanese heart and a global perspective, creating warm and personalized experiences. At Expo 2025 in Osaka, I served as a dedicated VIP liaison at the Japan Pavilion, assisting royal families and world leaders while honing advanced VIP protocol and hospitality skills. Before guiding in Japan, I worked as a licensed tour guide in New York City and appeared on a national Japanese TV program as a field reporter, sharing local life and culture. My career has always focused on caring for people in English speaking roles: as a British Airways flight attendant, a medical interpreter at an international clinic, and an administrator at a UN international school with students from 65 countries. Originally from Tokyo, I guide in Kyoto, Osaka, Nara, and Uji, where I combine historical knowledge with personal experience. I also offer tours in Tokyo and surrounding areas upon request. I look forward to welcoming you and sharing the unforgettable beauty, culture, and spirit of Japan!

“Very immersive and insightful experience of Osaka”

Our tour with Makoto was one to remember. Punctual and organised with all the relevant materials, Makoto escorted us to iconic tourist attractions such as Osaka Castle and the Osaka Museum of Housing and Living. Funny and affable, Makoto had an extremely detailed understanding of Osaka history and Japanese culture that really enhanced our experience with the tour. He even took us shopping streets and knew a delicious place to eat lunch. Makoto gave us a beautiful photo of Osaka castle to take home and we continue to cherish it to this day. Thank you for an amazing day and we highly recommend Makoto for anyone visiting Osaka.

Makoto Y.

Dear Ambalangodage, Thanks for your nice review message. I am so happy that you have enjoyed my tour. I have also enjoyed guiding you especially shopping in the street, Also you clearly understood the relationship and power balance between Nobunaga, Hideyoshi, and Ieyasu, which is not so easy to understand. I hope that you consider coming to Osaka again in the time of cherry blossoming. Thanks again fo your choosing me of your guide. Makoto
