Hi, I'm Koko— Osaka tour guide (Tourism degree), Japanese teacher, local foodie, and a mom who loves exploring!

With 12+ years in language education and global travel experience (6 years abroad, around 30 countries!), I know how to make your trip smooth, comfortable, and fun! As an experienced guide, I deeply understand global cultures, local food, and history, and I love sharing hidden culinary gems and fun local stories!

I love going beyond tourist spots to connect with locals, taking you to places you'd never find on your own. I'm always on the hunt for the best bite in town and love weaving historical stories into our food walks!

- What a day with me feels like

We'll go where locals go—big sights if you want, but also the streets tourists usually miss. We'll eat like Osakans: cozy local spots for real soul food, or a quiet café for sweets. Plus, as a Japanese teacher, I can teach you fun, practical phrases along the way!

- Everyone is welcome!

Solo travelers, couples, friends, or families—I love creating a fun, comfortable vibe for everyone! Traveling with kids? As a mom and kids' English teacher, I know how to keep little ones happy and included!

- Let's plan your day

I have a few tour styles ready to go, but I love building custom itineraries too. Whether you have a few hours, half a day, or a full day, tell me your interests and pace, and I'll create a day that fits you.

Let's make your time in Osaka feel less like sightseeing—and more like coming home. Come meet Osaka like you already have a friend here!
