This 3-hour Osaka Food Tour in the famous foodie neighborhood of Dotonbori & Namba will take you on an unforgettable eating excursion through the busy streets and the hidden, less frequented parts of Minami (South) Osaka. The tour kicks off in the busy Dotonbori area where we will learn about Glico man, a Filipino sprinter named Fortunato Catalon who inspired a nation and a company! Similar to Shibuya (its counterpart in Tokyo) the sights and sounds of Dotounburi often lead you astray to overly-commercialized restaurants with queues of tourists outside. We want to take our guests to places they would certainly miss without local guidance. We will take secret alleys not long after we begin the tour toward the shrine hidden from sight for the average passerby.

Our final tour with Arigato on our June Japan family vacation was a daytime tour of the Dotonbori district of Osaka. Our guide, Sae, was incredibly personable and engaging. She patiently answered (many!) questions from our two boys and gave us a wonderful insight into the area and the experiences we were having. We saw and tried things we would have never found on our own, from a small shrine to delectable kushikatsu and takoyaki spots and a wonderful izakaya lunch and dessert, with great context through Sae’s friendly and knowledgeable guidance. Every Arigato tour we took during our trip exceeded our expectations. Our family really enjoyed our time with Sae and she ensured we had a wonderful ending to our vacation. Thanks Sae for being such a kind and thoughtful host!

Our guide, Ken took us to 4 different establishments and regaled us with stories about Japan along the way. He was entertaining, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The tour made it easy to try different places without worrying about reservations for a larger party and the language barrier that comes with ordering.

We had a wonderful evening tour through the back streets of Dotonbori. It didn't matter that it was wet and windy, it added to the fun. Our tour guide was wonderful, she gave us plenty of local information and conversation about such an amazing city and country. Loved it!
