Discover Real Osaka: A Cultural Walk with Food & Drink
Osaka isn’t just a city I guide in—it’s a place I’ve explored deeply, step by step, as both a local and an artist. For years, I’ve wandered its streets, sketching its changing seasons, uncovering hidden alleys, and connecting with the people who make it special.
Now, I want to share that Osaka with you.
This isn’t just a walking tour—it’s a journey into the real Osaka, beyond tourist spots, where food, history, and culture come together.

What's included in Discover Real Osaka: A Cultural Walk with Food & Drink
(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
America Mura
Dive straight into Osaka's vibrant youth culture at America Mura (or Amemura as we locals lovingly call it)! It's more than just a neighborhood; it's the heartbeat of urban fashion, street art, and hip-hop vibes. Here, we'll stop for a mouthwatering takoyaki tasting—because you can't truly know Osaka without savoring these sizzling bites!
Dotonbori Tsuribori
Prepare yourself for the dazzling lights and endless food stalls of Dotonbori! Home to the iconic Glico Running Man sign, it's the ultimate selfie spot in Osaka. We'll navigate the mouthwatering chaos of street food—think takoyaki, kushikatsu, and so much more—as you soak in the dynamic atmosphere that embodies the city's motto, "Eat till you drop!"
Shinsaibashi
Shinsaibashi isn't just another shopping street—it's the lively pulse of Osaka nightlife, buzzing with energy from dusk till dawn. As we stroll through, I'll reveal a hidden secret spot right in plain sight, a fascinating place that even locals often miss, adding a layer of intrigue to our journey.
