This tour is perfect for those who prefer to avoid going out during the heat of a summer day, those who want to check in and start their activities in the evening, and those who wish to enjoy the nighttime illuminations and the atmosphere of the city.

Meeting Point
The hotel you are staying at
- I will pick you up in front of your hotel in my car
Shitennoji temple
Shitennoji is the head temple of the Wa-shu sect, located in Tennoji Ward, Osaka City; it is an ancient temple regarded as the first state-sponsored Buddhist temple in Japan. It is said to have been founded by Prince Shotoku in 593, the first year of the reign of Empress Suiko.
Namba Yasaka Shrine
This power spot is known for its 12m-tall photogenic lion hall. When you visit, pray for business success, love, protection from evil, and luck in competitions.
Shinsekai (New World)
Shinsekai, or “New World,” is an area in Osaka that offers tourists a “deep Osaka” experience — with retro-style arcades, nostalgic streetscapes, and local food culture.
Dinner
You will enjoy the experience at a traditional Japanese restaurant.
Dotonbori
The charm of Dotonbori River is the huge neon signs lining the lively riverside area and the opportunity to enjoy Osaka gourmet food such as takoyaki and okonomiyaki. You can also enjoy shopping in the arcade. I will also take you to Don Quijote.
Harukas Observatory
The Harukas Observatory—known as "Harukas 300"—is located on the top floor of Abeno Harukas, a skyscraper in Tennoji, Osaka. From a height of approximately 300 meters above the ground, it offers panoramic views that extend not only across Osaka City but all the way to the Nara area.
The spectacular night view that caps off the trip is sure to be a highlight!

“DO NOT BOOK THIS GUIDE”
Tatsuya is a nice guy who is a terrible guide. He picked us up at our hotel in his comfortable Lexus. The music was on and we could not hear what little he whispered as we drove to Kiyomizu temple, even after he turned down the volume. Arriving at the temple he walked 20 paces ahead through the hordes of people, and explained nothing about where we were or what we saw. When finally caught up to ask about a site or artifact, he looked it up on his phone and showed us the translation. He had no knowledge at all about the history of Kyoto. The same trend continued throughout the day. He dropped us at a rickshaw office in Arashiyama where we had a respite from his incompetence. We cut it short after that and asked him to take us back to the hotel, rather than continue to the Nishiki market with him. We had booked a second tour with him in Osaka the next day. We decided to cancel. Go With Guide has been uncooperative in giving us a refund for the second tour because of the so called 48 hour policy. We didn’t even ask for a full refund for the Kyoto tour, but they refused to consider that Tatsuya is not a guide at all and they clearly hadn’t screened or vetted him for the purpose. We will be pursuing it with the Japan Office of Consumer affairs for tourists. The situation is unacceptable.

“An ambitious tour with a considerate guide”
Our group of 3, one with some mobility issues had a rather long but informative day with Tatsuya. Picked up at Osaka port and driven to Kyoto and back. TAtsuya was as helpful as he could be to minimise walking and indeed managed to ensure access at Osaka castle to lifts and priority access To jump the queues. This was most welcome. He was also very flexible allowing us to tailor the tour to our interests.

A tour that combines the best of three cities' castles and shrines
Osaka Castle in Osaka, Kinkakuji Temple in Kyoto, and Todaiji Temple in Nara. This tour takes you to the symbols of these three cities! Normally, it would be impossible to cover all of these in one day, but with a private car, it's possible! Those who are short on time, dislike traveling, or have mobility issues are all welcome. The highlight of the trip will be seeing deer. Let's go on a super compact trip!
