Osaka at night with the best tour guide ever-Maria Soler - Our guide, Maria Soler showed us the night life of Ame mura, Shin Imamiya and Ura Namba. She was able to not only share the sites, but the story behind the places we saw and experienced. Her wish that we totally enjoy Osaka at night was a dream come true. Thank you, Maria

Really great insight into nighttime Osaka - Brice is a very personable young man with a lot of knowledge about Osaka nightlife as he has lived there for some years. He tailored the tour based on our feedback before the tour and was very flexible during the tour to meet our interests. Brice speaks Japanese which is a bonus. He showed us very local bars and we ate local food. We moved around venues as the locals do and we couldn’t have had such a local experience without someone like Brice. A top night and would highly recommend Brice.
