Highlights

Take the train to Osaka with your local host and discover a side of the city that most visitors miss. From the moment you step off the ship, everything is taken care of — including a private taxi from Kobe Port to the station and round-trip train transport to and from Osaka.


Explore vibrant street food alleys, neon-lit districts, and peaceful temples tucked into the heart of the city. Stroll through Dotonbori’s electric atmosphere, uncover stories behind Osaka Castle, or sample takoyaki from a local vendor. Whether you’re into history, food, or just soaking up the energy of the city, your day will be shaped around what excites you most.


Before the tour begins, you’ll complete a short online questionnaire so we can match you with the perfect local host to design your ideal day in Osaka.
