“Enjoying Osaka”

We went on a tour with Rina and had a fantastic time. We really enjoyed seeing Osaka and learning about Japan and the culture. Rina was very knowledgeable and willing to share with us. Highly recommended

“A truly caring and professional guide in Osaka – highly recommended!”

We were extremely fortunate to have Rina as our guide in Osaka. She is kind, professional, patient, and truly dedicated to her work. Originally, Rina had planned a full-day sightseeing tour for us, but unfortunately both my husband and I caught the flu and were unable to visit attractions. Instead, Rina devoted her day to helping us with all the practical matters of our trip — and she did it with remarkable care. She accompanied me to Osaka Station and patiently helped us buy all the train tickets for our entire Japan itinerary. She translated everything clearly, checked the train schedules, and made sure we got the correct tickets. Later, she took us to a pharmacy, helped us choose the most suitable medicines, and even found a convenient 7-Eleven currency exchange machine when we needed to exchange money — explaining everything in English so the process went smoothly. When she asked what else we needed, I mentioned we’d like to buy some local snacks, and she brought us to several popular shops that locals love, explaining each product with enthusiasm and insight. Even though we couldn’t go sightseeing, thanks to Rina we experienced something even more meaningful — the warmth, kindness, and professionalism of the Japanese people through her. Her English is excellent (she also teaches English part-time), and it was a joy to spend the day with her. We look forward to returning to Osaka someday, feeling much better, and having Rina guide us again — this time for a full and unforgettable Osaka tour. Thank you so much, Rina!

Hi Hans and Sharon, Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful comment. I’m truly glad to hear the tour was helpful, especially during such a challenging time. It was my pleasure to assist with the tickets, pharmacy visit, currency exchange, and shopping for your husband—I sincerely hope you two are feeling better now. Please continue to take good care of yourselves, and I wish you both a safe, relaxing, and joyful journey ahead through Hiroshima, Kyoto, Nara, and beyond. It was an honor to be part of your day. Next time, let’s enjoy a full day of sightseeing—Osaka Castle, Dotonbori, and many other wonderful places waiting to be explored! Thank you and warm regards, Rina

“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
