Full Description
Tokyo may have its corporate powerhouses and Kyoto its polished temples, but Osaka is unapologetically all about food. Here, food isn’t just nourishment—it’s obsession, art, and identity. Join a local guide with deep Osaka roots for a one-of-a-kind tour through the city’s most flavorful districts.
Your adventure begins with a stroll through an upscale department store food hall, where aesthetics and premium ingredients set the tone. From there, we dive into the famed Kuromon Ichiba Market, a buzzing street food paradise offering everything from fresh sushi to grilled scallops.
Next, venture into Tsuruhashi, Osaka’s own Koreatown, brimming with rich aromas, spicy flavors, and foods you won’t find in any guidebook. Finally, explore a historic local shopping street where Osaka residents buy their meats, vegetables, and daily essentials—an authentic slice of everyday life that few tourists ever see.
With a passionate, native-level English-speaking guide at your side, you’ll gain insights into not only the food but also the customs, stories, and culinary culture behind it all. Hungry yet?

Reviews
“We really enjoyed this tour with Ferdinand. He showed us different aspects of the Japanese and Korean markets. He explained a bit of history, customs, and his life in Japan as a Frenchman. He was very interesting and attentive to our questions.”
