Full Description

Journey into the heart of retro Osaka with this evening street food tour through Shinsekai, one of the city’s most unique and colorful districts. Developed in the early 20th century, Shinsekai retains a nostalgic charm that blends post-war grit with Osaka’s warm, down-to-earth spirit.

With a local expert guide, you’ll uncover hidden alleyways, vintage eateries, and old-school food stalls that few tourists find on their own. Along the way, hear stories of merchant life, entertainment history, and cultural quirks that shaped this unforgettable neighborhood.

As you walk, indulge in beloved Osaka flavors such as:

  • Crispy kushikatsu skewers (deep-fried skewered meat and vegetables)
  • Savory takoyaki (octopus balls)
  • Hearty kasu udon, a warming noodle soup made with sake lees

This experience is not just about food—it’s a deep dive into the retro soul of Osaka, where every street corner has a story and every bite reveals history.
