We met your gorgeous guide at the really busy street in Osaka and were immediately taken into a world of colour and tastes. Dannie shared her experiences of living in Osaka and told stories relating to things we saw all over the area, explaining the cultural significance of the temples, logos and various other images around. We tasted soo many foods- we weren’t huge fans of the octopus balls or the pickled fish but our feeling is you need to do it at least once, after all it’s all about the Japanese way of life! Otherwise you’d stay at home! Would really reconnect this tout.

We had a WONDERFUL tour guide, but I cannot remember his name! The tour was so informative not only of the background of Osaka’s food culture, but he also told us so many things about Japanese culture, language and the history of Osaka. The food was delicious and we were stuffed by the end. Our guide did absolutely incredible, and went above and beyond in making it worth the price. I highly recommend Arigato for the market tour in Osaka, it was amazing and we will definitely be using them in the future.

My wife and I were lucky and ended up with a private tour with Ayaka. Because our tour was on a Sunday, the sushi location she usually goes to wasn't open yet. Nevertheless, we started out with the seafood topped okonomiyaki. While we were waiting for it, she went over Japanese table manners and base flavors. Also sampled baby octopus, grilled squid, grilled scallops, Kobe beef, sashimi, and dessert. Saw bonito flakes, fugu/pufferfish (wasn't brave enough to try) as well. Finished up in the kitchen market area - knives, cookware, uniforms galore! Very informative, memorable, and tasty! We had such a great experience that time passed so quickly - sad that it was over. Arigato to Arigato Food Tours and to Ayaka.
