“Osaka Day Tour”
We recently spent a lovely day with Hiroki in Osaka. He's a really nice guy (albeit not quite as chatty as some of the other guides we had in Japan) and helped minimise wait times at busy venues by organising tickets and IC cards in advance. We decided to drop something from the itinerary on the day and Hiroki was very accommodating and suggested an alternative venue that we had not considered but ended up really enjoying (the Nissin cup noodle museum). He also proactively sent us information on the best way to get to Shin-Osaka station for our shinkansen trip to Hiroshima the next day which which was much appreciated. Hiroki walks very fast so be prepared for a lively pace. A couple of us were carrying injuries which meant we fell behind a little at times, but he never got that far ahead that it became a problem. Thanks for a great day Hiroki-san. We really enjoyed our time in Osaka! Regards Steve, Michele and Liam Armstrong

(18 reviews)Dear Steve, Thank you for the feedback. I am delighted you enjoyed the Osaka tour. I was worried that there were too many tourists to bother your tour when we visited Osaka Castle. But I felt you were all pretty excited about making original cup noodles. I am looking forward to seeing you in Osaka again. Do not forget the wonderful view from Umeda Sky Building after sunset.

“Amazing Tour to Nara”
Hiroki planned such an incredible tour through Nara. He organized a craft workshop where we made our own brushes with a master. It was amazing, he translated everything on the fly since the lady barely spoke any English. It would have been almost impossible to organize on our own, and it would have been very intimidating, although she was very nice. We then walked around a lot, went to many different places of interests, everything was timed perfectly. He does the tour to Nara a lot, so he has a lot of experiences on how to handle the deer feeding as well, which was greatly appreciated! Thank you for the great day Hiroki!

“A great half day tour in OSAKA”
On my recent trip to Japan, I had the pleasure of going on a guided tour of Osaka with Hiroki. He was very patient and took the time to carefully customise our tour for an unforgettable experience in Osaka. He also accommodated our schedule for the visit to Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan. Hiroki's tour was well-organised, with timely pickups and comfortable transportation between locations, allowing for a more personalised experience. He also ensured ample time was given at each stop to explore, take photos, and enjoy the surroundings without feeling rushed. This tour of Osaka was a perfect blend of food and modern city life. It was so much fun, providing a unique experience of why Osaka is such a beloved destination. Whether you're a first-time visitor or a seasoned traveller, this tour offers something for everyone. I highly recommend Hiroki's Osaka tour to anyone looking to experience the city's heart and soul. Hiroki personalised tour is a fantastic way to see the major sights, learn about local culture, and make lasting memories. Osaka's charm and Hiroki's excellent tour guide made this an exceptional part of my Japan trip.
