An amazing evening with Clara as our guide. She gave us a detailed description of Japanese culture and all traditions around Sakura. We enjoyed street food and a dinner in a local restaurant. The cherry blossoms where out of this world. Fabulous environment along the canal. A very festive evening. We loved it! Arigato gozaimasu !

Fantastic tour! Hugo is an amazing guide, I would do a tour with him again for sure. Everyone in my group had a great time learning about the history of the less seen areas in Osaka. I do think there should be a disclaimer that this is an “adult only” tour. Did not impact us but I would not recommend bringing children on this tour.
