What to expect

Discover Osaka's favorite snack - the Okonomiyaki or Takoyaki. You will have a private guide who will take you around Osaka! Go around the city and feel free to ask many questions!. First, we will visit “Dotonbori” to have a popular snack (own expenses). It’s the liveliest area in the heart of the old town center with lots of reasonably-priced restaurants and shops which have replaced the old theaters that used to thrive here. Osaka is called the town of “Kuidaore,” which translates to “eat" until you drop.

Following the meal, we will take a casual stroll down Dotonbori street and spot many peculiar shop signs along the way. Next, we visit Osaka Castle. It boasts gigantic and exquisite stone walls which are the highest in all of Japan. Many sections of the castle have been lost in history. We will go around Osaka Castle Park, up the five-story main tower and take a close look at the unbeatable walls surrounded by two large moats.

This is the second Osaka Castle, built after the first Osaka Castle was burnt down during the Winter War and the Summer War in 1615. The stone walls of the first castle have been buried deep under the ground! There are many interesting stories about the castle, so let’s enjoy the sights and listened to the amazing history of the castle. Looking forward to meeting you and enjoying these two famous sights in Osaka!
