About Tour Guide Kokoro O.
Welcome to Japan!
I'm Koko, a language coach, local foodie, and proud mom of a 5-year-old boy based in Osaka.
With over 12 years of experience teaching and coaching both English and Japanese, I’ve always loved communication and cultural exchange. Having lived and studied in five different countries—the US, Finland, Ireland, Switzerland, and Australia—I deeply understand global cultures and the needs of international travelers.
Whenever I travel abroad, I always look beyond the famous tourist spots. I love connecting with local people and experiencing everyday life and culture. That passion naturally inspired me to become a host myself, and now I hope to share the same warm and authentic local experiences with travelers visiting my hometown.
My local experiences are perfect for families, couples, and friends who want to enjoy authentic everyday culture in a relaxed and welcoming environment.
Depending on your interests, we can enjoy cozy cultural experiences like trying Japanese calligraphy, tasting local wagashi sweets, exploring neighborhood supermarkets and 100-yen shops, making origami, playing traditional Japanese games, and discovering everyday Japanese culture together.
Haven’t decided on your itinerary yet? No problem! Just send me a message, and we can create a relaxed and memorable day based on your interests and travel style.
Let’s make your time in Osaka delicious, cozy, and unforgettable!

Rina K.
Hi I'm Rina. Thank you for your interest, and welcome to Japan. I was born and raised in Osaka, and I’m truly excited to show you both the city’s famous landmarks and its hidden gems. Osaka is full of incredible food and fun places to explore. I enjoy guiding guests into Osaka’s hidden, local neighborhoods where you can taste unusual dishes and discover spots only locals know. I look forward to guiding you through an Osaka you’ll want to return to. Soy principiante y no hablo mucho español, pero me encanta recibir a huéspedes hispanohablantes.
