Foodie Tour

What to Expect

The tour includes five delicious food stops, with around 13 different dishes in total. You’ll get to try a wide variety of Osaka’s soul food, from the worldwide famous to the hidden gems. The menu changes with the seasons and local restaurant schedules. No two tours are exactly the same, but every one of them is packed with flavour.

Between food stops, we take a short stroll through the buzzing streets of Dotonbori for a bit of sightseeing. This isn’t a walking tour, we keep the pace easy and focus on eating and enjoying the city, but we love showing off a few highlights and sharing the stories behind them as we go.

What Sets Us Apart

What sets Namba Food Tours apart is our passion for Japan, our love for Osaka, and our commitment to making every tour unforgettable. Our guides are full-time professionals who’ve spent years living in Japan, running hundreds of tours, and exploring every corner of Namba. We’re not just reading from a script, we live this life every day, and we’re genuinely excited to share it with you.

We keep our groups small because we believe the best experiences happen in a more relaxed and personal setting. No shouting over crowds or rushing through tourist traps, just great food, local insights, and fun conversations in good company. Whether it’s your first time in Osaka or you’re practically a local yourself, we’ll make sure you experience the city in a way that feels real.

We don’t just want you to taste Osaka, we want you to connect with it. You’ll walk away with a full belly, a bunch of new favourites, and memories you’ll be talking about long after the last bite. That’s what sets us apart.
