I was born and raised in Osaka, so I’m a true local! I love traveling—both around Japan and overseas—and discovering new places, cultures, and of course… delicious food!
In addition to being a guide, I also run my own office as a certified labor and social security attorney in Japan. Thanks to this professional background, you can feel assured that I’m a trustworthy and responsible guide who can flexibly arrange tours to fit your needs.
Before starting my own practice, I also worked as a tour conductor for domestic bus tours, traveling all around Japan for a year. This experience gave me the chance to visit many regions and learn how to take care of guests in different travel settings.
I can take you on food tours to hidden local bars and restaurants loved by Osakans, or guide you through Japan’s rich history with visits to shrines, temples, and castles. Whether you want to experience Osaka like a local foodie or dive into cultural traditions, I’ll create a tour that’s perfect for you.
I’m also a photography enthusiast, so you’ll get some great photos taken by me as a souvenir from our tour!
Let’s enjoy Osaka together—just like locals do!
All tours can be customized for you. Send me a message with your requests!

“Food and culture Ryoko knows Osaka ”
I had the pleasure to have Ryoko as my guide and she is a charming, intelligent, and very knowledgeable native of Osaka. The lady knows the city. The best part of our tour was walking around the neighborhoods and seeing all the different aspects of the city and culture. She also took me to an excellent barbecue restaurant which made my day. I highly recommend her for a guided tour of specially if you seek food and culture.
