About Tour Guide Lina Y.

Hi! my name is Lina from Osaka! I’m a beginner tour guide, so I would really appreciate your patience and kindness. I speak American English, and I’m not good at understanding other accents

I love sharing Japanese culture with visitors and seeing their reactions when they learn something new. My hobbies include art, DJing, and sewing, and I enjoy discovering the best spots for sightseeing and local treats.

“Fun Evening Walking Around the Osaka Castle Area”

Lina-san guided me around Osaka to an Okonomiyaki dinner location and to view the castle at night. She is an intelligent young lady who knows her city well and who also is interested in the U.S. (she had a NASA shirt on which I thought was pretty cool), so we had a lot of good conversations. I can 100% recommend her!

Lina Y.

Thank you so much for your review, Mark san! I’m really happy to hear you enjoyed the Okonomiyaki and Osaka Castle. I also had a great time chatting thank you for the fun conversations :) I hope your travels continue to be amazing, and I would love to guide you again someday!
