About Tour Guide Atsushi T.

Hello, I’m Atsushi.


I grew up in Osaka, a city famous for its warm people, delicious food, and lively culture.


Until last month, I worked for five years as a softwear engineer. Now, I’ve shifted to what I truly enjoy—working closely with people. Alongside private tutoring and mental health counseling, I am excited to guide travelers through my home region.


“Make your once-in-a-lifetime trip to Japan even more unforgettable.”


That’s my mission as your guide.


With me, you can explore historic landmarks, or dive into the city’s soul through food—whether it’s a casual street-food crawl or hidden local favorites. Since I grew up here, I can take you beyond the usual tourist spots to restaurants and shops that locals actually return to again and again. I’d like to introduce a place that will make you want to come back.


On hot summer days, I’ll show you comfortable underground passages and indoor attractions. When the weather is just right, we can enjoy the city outdoors to the fullest.


Guests often say my tours feel like being guided by a friend who knows the city inside out—fun, relaxed, and authentic. I want you to experience Osaka not only as a visitor, but as someone who feels at home here.


And one more thing: 10% of my earnings are donated to organizations that support single-parent families (Save the Children).


Let’s make your Japan journey something truly special together!
