About Your Guide

Hi, I'm Yusuke

I love walking and eating — which makes me the perfect Osaka guide. Having traveled solo to 14 countries, I know exactly what it feels like to explore a new place and crave a real local connection.

I left my career as a teacher to share the city I love with curious travelers from around the world. My goal is simple: make you feel like you're exploring Osaka with a friend, not a stranger.

Osaka

Why with Me?

Osaka is raw, real, and delicious. From the neon glow of Dotonbori to the quiet morning temples — this city rewards those who wander with a local.

My tours seamlessly blend the iconic sights with the unpolished daily life of my hometown. Let's capture great photos, chat along the way, and explore Osaka together—not as tourist and guide, but as old friends.

"Felt less of a tour guide and more like a local friend."

Yusuke was a great guide. Was only in Osaka for a couple days and this tour was a great stress-free way to see a bunch of what Osaka has to offer. Having Yusuke just made it even better.

Great tour from Yusuke who took time to show us hidden gems of Osaka. Did not rush us and was willing to give us as much time to enjoy the tour as we wanted.
