About Street Food Osaka

Street Food Osaka is an independent guide to guided food tours in Osaka — I compare the tours so you can book the right one at the right price. I’m Kenta Ashida, a local guide living in Tennoji. I spent six years working in a Shinsekai kushikatsu kitchen before I started walking visitors through the backstreets. This site is what I tell visiting friends about where to eat.

What I do

I research the Osaka street food tours available on GetYourGuide, read through traveller reviews, and write honest, practical guidance on which tour suits which traveller. The site covers six tours: the $60 flagship (2,658 reviews), the top-rated $69 option (4.9), the private $169 option, and three others. I’m not a tour operator — I don’t run tours or take commissions beyond the affiliate link.

How the site is funded

I earn a small affiliate commission when you book through the links here, at no extra cost to you. That’s what keeps the site free and lets me keep writing. It never changes which tours I recommend. See my affiliate disclosure for the full picture.
