She made sure we got to the right train to go back to the cruise ship and ensured that we would get back on time.

- Solushan0 contributionsIncredible day exploring lively OsakaWe had an amazing tour with Miki who turned out to be the perfect guide for us. We had one day in Osaka as we were on a cruise and wanted to cover a lot of ground . Miki totally delivered and put together a great day for us. We hit Osaka Castle but also visited a pop up of a tv set of a popular tv series which was fun to see. We hit the major shopping streets but really enjoyed exploring the fun alleys of lively Osaka . We requested we go to a good sushi place for lunch. Miki worked her magic and got us into a Michelin star sushi restaurant that was a highlight of our entire trip. Miki went out of her way to make sure we had a great day and personally escorted us to a tea ceremony we set up and would have never found on our own . In addition to speaking great English and being a lovely person , Miki is an excellent photographer and we ended up with some great pictures. Communicating was a breeze and we could not be happier with our experienceWritten 4 March 2024
- micsa20190 contributionsAmazing City-Tour Private Guided Experience with MariaMaria is the best tour guide I could ever ask for. She went above and beyond in guiding me, taking me to places that suited my preference. She made me experience how it is to be an Osaka local for a day and for that I am beyond grateful. If in the future I'd book another City Unscripted experience, I'll choose Maria a hundred times over because she's simply amazing.Written 24 February 2024

- markpQ5335JV0 contributionsFun day in OsakaFour of us had a very fun private tour of Osaka with Fumiko. Per our request it was informal and unscripted. It was a nice mix of culture, sights, shopping, off the beaten track neighborhoods, and, of course, food. Be sure to try the tofu tiramisu. We walked and subwayed all around the city. It was a great 1 day introduction. Fumiko was fun, knowledgeable and very accommodating with lots of good advice.Written 21 January 2024

Outstanding tour of Osaka with Hamed, the tour guide. My son was at the high school baseball tournament, so I decided to book the private tour to explore Osaka and I'm glad I did. Hamed provided me a comprehensive tour of most of the city. Hamed is a great communicator and has an engaging personality, so 3 hours with him was a learning experience on the history of many of the districts along with the back-story on each street toured. This tour was one of the highlights of my seven day vacation in Japan.

We met our guide Jenny and it was very easy and comfortable from the start. She showed us where certain shops were that suited our daughters quirky tastes. She showed us around the city, where to eat, shop and relax. It was a fun walking tour.

Hi, understand that to visit Japan, tourists needs to follow guided tour. If i booked your local tour, can this be considered as guided tour or i need to follow our country Tour agency before I am permitted to travel to Japan? Thanks Ray

Hi, Your tour sounds great; however, i am confused about the cancellation policy. One place sites: "Cancel up to 7 days before your experience and get a full refund." and further in description it says "Cancellation Policy
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours in advance of the start date of the experience." What is the actual cancellation policy for a full refund.
