Best market we visited during our trip - We had an amazing time with our guide Aiko! We had five dishes plus some tastings. They were all delicious and the places very interesting. We also went to Namba and Dotonburi and got some great recommendations and insights in Japanese culture.

Great guide! - Such a fun experience! Naru was very informative, answered all our questions about Osaka and showed us the best food spots in Kuruomon Market and Dotonburi. He even gave us tips for our upcoming trip to Kyoto!

Wonderful tour with Ai! - We had an amazing time with Ai today! She showed us around the market and recommended her favorite places to eat. We were still able to use our own money once we were over budget, and she was essential in helping order food. We learned a lot about Osaka and its food traditions, which was an amazing experience! We ended up being the only 2 in the tour today so we got a free personal tour. Would recommend!
