Osaka Private Walking Tours

Context Travel Osaka Tours with an Expert Guide

Osaka, historically known as the mercantile heart of Japan, has long been famed for its strategic location at the mouth of the Yodo River, fostering trade and culture. This city, once a modest fishing village, evolved into a pivotal urban hub during the feudal era, particularly noted for its castle, which symbolizes the might of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, one of Japan's unifiers. Over time, Osaka has earned the moniker "the Nation's Kitchen" due to its role as a culinary epicenter, where the art of food transcends mere sustenance to become a cultural narrative.

Miyo was the perfect guide. She had a great knowledge of the history of Japan and we made amazing stops on our food tour. Truly a memorable day. And we had the best time. We would love to book with Miyo again on any future trips! Thanks again!
Nick was very informative with a good sense of humor. We appreciated his historical overview and orientation with world events… we learned so much! Nick was also so kind in taking us to the Dotonbori area after the castle. Nick was an excellent guide and fun person!
