“OSAKA, KIOTO Y NARA ”
Osaka fue una parada de dos dias del crucero y Takashi hizo que aprovecharamos el tiempo al maximo, el primer dias nos movilizamos en un vans que alquilamos de Osaka a Kioto y visitamos todos los sitios mas relevantes, ir con Takashi nos permitió movilizarnos rápido, luego regresamos a Osaka y nos orientó en lo que debíamos hacer por nuestra cuenta. El segundo día nos recogió en la terminal y salimos juntos a Nara, recorrimos Nara y al medio día regresamos a Osaka para terminar de recorrer los sitios mas emblemáticos de Osaka y luego nos llevo a la terminal de cruceros. Takashi es una persona muy educada que nos fue explicando la historia en los diferentes sitios visitados, fue muy eficiente en el uso del tiempo y gracias a él, en el poco tiempo que tuvimos en Osaka, logramos conocer 3 ciudades. Habla perfectamente bien el español, fue un guia EXCELENTE!!

A Local Friend in Kansai — Meet Atif Hey there! I’m Atif, a travel lover who’s been calling Osaka home for the past few years. What started as a curious adventure quickly turned into a deep love for this region — the food, the people, and all the little hidden corners that make Kansai so special. Now, I spend my days sharing those discoveries with travelers who want to see the real Japan — not just the postcard version. What I Offer Fun & Flexible Tours: No boring scripts here! I plan each tour around you — whether you love taking photos, tasting street food, exploring quiet temples, or getting lost in neon-lit backstreets. Local Secrets: After years of wandering Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, and Kobe, I’ve found the best hidden gems — from tiny noodle shops to peaceful gardens and back-alley shrines. Laughs & Memories: My tours aren’t just about facts — they’re about fun. Expect stories, local legends, and maybe even a karaoke challenge (if you’re brave enough)! Why Travel with Me Because travel should feel like exploring with a local friend, not following a flag in a crowd. I love good food, spontaneous detours, and showing people the Kansai that most tourists miss. Whether it’s your first visit or your fifth, I’ll make sure you experience something new — and unforgettable. Let’s Start the Adventure! Ready to explore Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, or Kobe? Let’s laugh, learn, eat, and wander together — Kansai style!
