Things to do in Dotonbori

Although it was very cold, the Osaka Castle light show at night was very beautiful. The place is not very big and you can complete it in one hour.

A must when you come to Osaka!!! You receive a close up one on one experience learning not only how to make ramen but all the elements involved!!! Soy sauce ramen was a hit washed down with a Lemon Sour!

nice place and good illumination. you can see the osaka castle from the illumination place. good place to visit.

Mr. Pico! I was impressed by the way he kindly explained things and took pictures of each customer. He gave really useful information, such as tips on using the facilities and recommendations for good restaurants! I became more interested in Japan and want to travel to other places. Of course, I definitely want to go with Mr. Pico again next time~ Thanks to Mr. Pico, I had a really fun trip~ Thank you😍

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing the Osaka Go Kart tour by Akiba Kart, and it was an absolute highlight of my trip! The whole experience was incredibly well-organized, exciting, and unforgettable. Driving through the vibrant streets of Osaka while dressed in fun costumes added such a unique and playful touch. The staff were professional, friendly, and ensured our safety while making the entire experience seamless. They provided clear instructions and made sure we were comfortable throughout the ride. The views of Osaka from the go-kart were breathtaking, and it felt like we were part of a real-life adventure. The route was thoughtfully planned, allowing us to see some of the city’s best landmarks while having the time of our lives. Thank you, Akiba Kart, for such a thrilling and commendable experience! I highly recommend this to anyone visiting Osaka – it’s a must-try activity that I will definitely do again in the future.

Thank you so much to our tour guide, Yuki! Yuki was very friendly, knowledgeable and fun. She shared so many interesting facts about Osaka and showed us so many places. We loved visiting Osaka Castle and Shitennoji Temple, and marvelling at Kuromon Market and Dotonbori. My family had the best time, especially my sons, who enjoyed learning about Osaka’s history. Thanks once again, Yuki, for a wonderful introduction to Japan!

We had an excellent experience with this customized chartered car tour. The 10-hour day, including a round trip from our hotel, was incredibly convenient and allowed us to make the most of our time. The van was spacious and spotless, providing a comfortable ride throughout the day. Having a Chinese-speaking driver was a big plus, especially for our mum, as it made communication smooth and stress-free. While tolls, parking fees, and attraction admissions weren’t included, this was clearly communicated beforehand and wasn’t an issue for us. This tour was the best way to see exactly what we wanted at our own pace. Communication with the company was clear and straightforward, making the entire process easy. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a hassle-free and personalized sightseeing experience!
