Loved our tour guide! Our guide has been in Japan for 27 years, is from Ireland, and looks like a musician from an 80's hard rock band, and he loves it! He was a great guide, knew the in's & out's of the "back streets" of Osaka! Lots of history, development and he knows a ton of fun facts! Dinner was a kick! Gotta stay for it!

Perfect Start for my Osaka visit
