“Great tour of Osaka night life. Rodney took the time to explain all of the places in detail and highlighted how his tour tried very hard to integrate into and not disturb the existing native bar culture. Highly recommend!”
Osaka Namba bar hopping with a local guide. 3 izakaya stops, 6 tastes, plus Hozen-ji sights. Small group, 3 hours.
“The first Restaurant the service was Deplorable! The second was good as with the Sake. The third Bar we went to did not have Sake so I ordered a glass of White wine...around 1.5 oz poor. I refused it and told the Bartender poor me a glass of wine or throw it away...he threw it down the drain and I left!”

“Had a great time! Kosuke was a fantastic guide, i learned so much and had the best time!”
A 5-hour Osaka guided pub crawl with free shots, drink discounts, games, and a late nightclub finish, plus photos and possible after-parties.
“Excellent night with Rob and Hugo. The first bar was not great and the staff could have been friendlier than they were but Rob and Hugo managed to get round this by getting the party games going. The next two bars and the nightclub were great fun and both Rob and Hugo ensured that everyone in the group mixed and that everyone had a great night. This was a brilliant introduction to Osaka although we paid for it a little the next day !”

Two-hour Namba bar hopping with an English guide. Taste izakayas, Japanese whisky, and classic small plates in a small group.
“What an unforgettable evening! ✨ We had the most fantastic time exploring hidden izakayas tucked away in little alleys — each one filled with incredible food, atmosphere, and the warmest people. We tried dishes we’d never have known to order ourselves (and loved every one of them!), along with some seriously good sake and cocktails. Koda was the absolute star of the show — an amazing host from start to finish (and even after! 😂). So knowledgeable, welcoming, and fun — it felt like exploring with a local friend who knew all the best spots. Couldn’t recommend this experience more highly! 🌸🍶💫”

We enjoyed visiting various types of restaurants while chatting with the guide and other guests!”
