About Tour Guide Tatsuya M.

Nice to meet you! My name is Tatsuya. I was born and raised in Osaka. I love traveling the world and communicating with all kinds of people. I also have a caring personality, so I would love to share the charms of Osaka, its people, and its food with people all over the world!

Important

The tour runs from 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM or 12:00 PM to 7:00 PM, and I will guide you around Osaka's great spots or the area of your choice in my car. Since we are traveling by car, we will travel efficiently using the shortest route. People with disabilities or those who don't like walking are also welcome.

A tour that combines the best of three cities' castles and shrines

Osaka Castle in Osaka, Kinkakuji Temple in Kyoto, and Todaiji Temple in Nara. This tour takes you to the symbols of these three cities! Normally, it would be impossible to cover all of these in one day, but with a private car, it's possible! Those who are short on time, dislike traveling, or have mobility issues are all welcome. The highlight of the trip will be seeing deer. Let's go on a super compact trip!

“Great Trip in Osaka”

Tatsuya was a wonderful guide. He took us to all locations and accommodated our shopping needs. He took us not only to historic sites but to find wasabi and chopsticks. He also arranged for a typical lunch that we really enjoyed. Great service. Thank you Tatsuya.

Tatsuya M.

Thank you so much as well. I'm happy that you enjoyed it. Please contact me again when you come to Osaka! I wish your family all the best.

“Incredible guide!”

We were very happy with Tatsuya.M. Five stars isn’t enough. He takes his time - explains well and goes above and beyond to make the trip more comfortable. We were highly impressed by his kindness, politeness and dedication. We went to multiple places and we never felt rushed. Thanks to him we tried and enjoyed Osaka’s local food cuisine.

Tatsuya M.

I'm honored that you enjoyed it! It was a wonderful experience for me too. I hope to have you as my guide again sometime!
