Hi, my name is Takashi!!
When I go abroad, I think that how nice it would be to have a friend there and hang out together. I want you to feel like you have a friend in Osaka and we can go around and explore.
I was born and grew up in Japan. And I speak English, Spanish and Japanese. I can be the perfect guide for you!!
I can guide you in any city in Japan, just let me know where you wanna go :)

“A walking, talking Kyoto-Osaka GPS with charm!”
We had the pleasure of working with Takashi as the tour guide for a family of 8 pax during their 6-days visit to Kyoto and Osaka. Takashi did an outstanding job throughout the entire trip. He provided clear, insightful explanations of all the key cultural and historical sites, and ensured that the family was always on time for each scheduled visit. His organization skills were excellent — from coordinating logistics to securing reservations at excellent, authentic local restaurants. He was consistently punctual, approachable, and always available to assist with anything the guests needed. It's clear that Takashi is passionate about what he does, and it really showed in the way he took care of every detail. We’re very happy with the experience he delivered — professional, warm, and truly reliable. Highly recommended and 10/10!

“Rainy day in Kyoto”
It was a rainy day in Kyoto but it didn't stop us from enjoying our tour with Takashi. He was punctual, knowledgeable, and flexible. We definitely would not have explored the cool back alleys and streets of Gion without him. He also took us to an excellent casual local spot for lunch. It was a ton a walking and everyone in our family was exhausted by the end of the day, but very worthwhile. Thanks Takashi for a great day!
