Osaka Port
The symbol of Osaka, towering in the sky. Built in 1583, it has a dramatic history. Many kinds of trees bloom in season in the large park, especially we can enjoy a lot of cherry blossoms in full bloom at the end of March or the beginning of April.
Grand Front to Sky Building
You can do window shopping in a modern shopping center, on the way to the Sky Building.
You can enjoy the interesting structures of the building and the stunning view of Osaka and Osaka Bay from the observatory.
This island in the river has many beautiful buildings, like the Nakanoshima Public Hall and City Hall. I will tell the stories of those. This park also has a large rose garden.
People are relaxing at the cafes facing the river. You can have an excellent time.
Dotonbori is one of the biggest and most popular foodie districts in Osaka. 'Bori' means canal, in which three-dimensional neon signs are reflected. You will see many casual stands with famous local foods like Takoyaki.

Visiting Nara from Osaka ~truly the must-see place in Japan~
“Amazing place with excellent guide”
Our guide Shuji took excellent care of our family. He was very considerate planning the tour so the children and adults can enjoy the place. He made suggestions so it was easy for the kids to navigate (5 and 7 years old). He recommended which place to eat and advice us which place to avoid. He was very patient answering my nephew's questions about fishing! Unfortunately it rained but it was towards the end of our tour. We would highly recommend our guide Shuji. Thank you for the wonderful tour. Lynette and family ( Philippines)

(15 reviews)Thank you for your kind review. We visited Nara considering the sudden heavy rain and the condition of 5 and 7-year-old children. The most challenging thing for me was the series of questions from 7-year-old boys about fishing. Yes, I also had a pleasant day in Nara. Thank you very much. See you sometime.
“Great Day with Shuji”
We had a great day visiting Himeji and its garden with Shuji. He was very accommodating and discreet. It was a perfect day!

(15 reviews)Thank you for the wonderful review. As you suggested starting early, we were able to enjoy Himeji Castle and Kokoen Garden during the cooler hours. And we got amazing seats for lunch. It really was a lovely tour. I would love to go on a tour with you all anytime. I hope you enjoy the tours for the rest of your stay in Japan.
“Shuji is Great!”
We spent a day with Shuji in Kyoto and went at the end with him to Osaka where he lives. It was a great day. He is very knowlegeeable about Japanese history and culture (he taught world history before retiring). His Englsh is great. The Kyoto part was exploring three temples that were further out and we might have missed without his guidance. Osaka was a brief tour of the central area, including the night life and street food. He recommended a great restaurant for us after. Highly recommended. Kent and Luca

(15 reviews)Dear Kent and Luca, Thank you so much for the great review. We really had a wonderful time. Since you had already visited many places in Kyoto, I was able to take you to my most favorite hidden gems. And thank you very much for your barrage of jokes! I hope I can see both of you again.
