Overview of your Osaka tour:

Osaka is a vibrant, energetic city where I was born and grew up. The tour will give you an opportunity to understand this unique city in western Japan. We will explore the geography, history, religion, food cultures, and the neighbourhood of Osaka. We will look at Osaka from above, at the open-air Floating Garden in Sky Building. See how the city was formed. You can attend the Buddhist rituals at Shiten'noji Temple. Osaka Castle takes you back to the 16th century wartime Japan. There are also remains of a 7th century palace nearby. You can even look at the impact of World War II. In the afternoon, we'll see present-day Japan. First to Shinsekai, a somewhat bizarre place. You can taste the local delicacy, kushikatsu, deep-fried meat and vegetables on skewers. Then, we'll head for Dotombori, Osaka's answer to Times Square. So many shops, restaurants, not to mention the glittering neon lights. At night, this place will amaze you. THIS TOUR COULD ALSO BE CUSTOMIZED. Just tell me what you want to do!

Transportation Details
Type: Public Transportation / Category: Subway

We will use subways in Osaka mostly, as it is the most convenient way to move around. You may want to buy a one-day travel card for Osaka subways and city buses. It is only ¥820 during the weekdays and ¥620 for weekends and holidays. It's a great deal. I recommend it. If you prefer, you may choose to use cabs in between venues at your own expense.
