A full-day walking tour of Osaka led by a local English-speaking guide, covering Osaka Castle, Shitennoji Temple, Kuromon Market, Dotonbori, and Shinsaibashi. All admissions, required train tickets, and the ukiyo-e woodblock printing experience are included in the tour price.
Lunch is not included. A break is provided at Kuromon Market where a wide variety of street food and restaurant options are available. Your guide will suggest local specialties on request.
The tour involves up to 15,000 steps across the day, including stairs and uneven surfaces in some areas. Comfortable, sturdy walking shoes are essential. The tour also uses public transport by train and subway between certain destinations.
Comfortable walking shoes are essential, given the volume of walking involved. Layered, weather-appropriate clothing is recommended. Sun protection and rain gear are advisable depending on the forecast.
If any part of the itinerary cannot proceed as scheduled due to closures, weather, or other conditions, the tour operator will arrange a suitable alternative and inform guests as early as possible.
