Discover the Flavors and Stories of Osaka’s Hidden Neighborhoods

Overview

Step off the beaten path and into the soul of Osaka with our immersive nighttime food tour through Tenma and Kyobashi—two local neighborhoods rarely explored by tourists. This small-group tour (max 9 guests) offers the perfect blend of street exploration, local culture, and unforgettable flavors, all guided by passionate locals who know the city like the back of their hand.

Over the course of the evening, you’ll sample around 15 different dishes across three distinct restaurants—each chosen for their authenticity and flavor, not tourist gimmicks. From bustling backstreets to atmospheric izakayas, we’ll show you the real Osaka, far from the neon lights of Dotonbori.

Takoyaki? You can find that yourself. We’ve got bigger fish to fry.
