“Retro osaka walk & more”

Rina is an amazing guide. I did 2 separate day tours with her & both were most enjoyable. I really appreciated that she could adjust things around so I could get to a few extra things that I specially wanted. 2 delightful days spent with Rina as I got to see more of Osaka. I highly recommend Rina as your guide.

Hi Robyn, Thank you so much for your warm comment. I'm truly touched. Those retro neighborhoods weren’t tourist spots, but neighborhoods where daily rhythms gently flow—and I’m so glad you chose to explore them with me. It meant a lot to guide you not only to the places you had in mind, but also to a few hidden corners along the way. Spending time together made me appreciate Osaka even more, too. Hope to see you again someday. Cheers, Rina

“Umeda, Tenjinbashi & more”

Rina is a most amazing guide, I did 2 tours with her & enjoyed every moment. She was happy to take me to extra placed that I wanted to visit (ie: craft supplies etc). I added further time into the day to do the extra things. Rina speaks good english which is appreciated as I don't speak more than a few words of Japanese. For me the days were enjoyable in her company. I highly recommend Rina for your guide.

Hello again Robyn, It’s such an honor to hear you enjoyed the tour—thank you again for your kind words. I’m so glad you found time for some lovely shopping afterwards, too. Your habit of choosing postcards and writing heartfelt messages at sightseeing spots was new to me, and I found it truly beautiful. It turned a simple moment into something quietly meaningful. Please say hi to your son and his lovely family for me. Take care, Rina PS: Thank you for sharing the lamington recipe!

“Unforgettable Osaka Tour with Rina!”

We spent a fantastic afternoon exploring Osaka with Rina, and I can’t recommend her enough! From the moment the tour began, she was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and full of knowledge about the city’s history, food, and culture. The food tour was a real highlight—each stop introduced us to unique local dishes, and Rina had great stories to go with them. Her city sightseeing portion was just as impressive, guiding us through must-see spots and hidden gems with ease. What really stood out were the helpful tips she shared throughout the day, from navigating local transit to discovering great places to eat and explore after the tour. Rina made the experience feel like we were exploring the city with a friend. If you’re looking for a relaxed, insightful, and tasty way to discover Osaka, this tour is the way to go! Thanks Rina for making our experience delightful and delicious!!
