Description
The Ultimate Osaka Insider Experience
Why settle for a standard tour when you can explore Osaka with your Strategic Cultural Buddy? I am an active business owner, a published author on Japanese etiquette, and your personal key to the real Osaka that locals love.
What You Will Experience
Real Local Food
We skip the tourist traps. I’ll take you to authentic neighborhood spots—small “Noren” restaurants and izakaya that I personally frequent as a local.
Strategic Travel Advice
Bring your Japan itinerary. I’ll review it and give you practical, time‑saving, and cost‑efficient tips for the rest of your trip.
Cultural Coaching
As the author of Japanese Manners & Greetings, I’ll teach you essential etiquette and “Survival Japanese” (greetings, ordering, useful phrases) so you can navigate Japan with confidence.
Real Talk
Gain honest insights into modern Japanese society, business culture, and everyday life—perspectives you won’t find in any guidebook.
