Best Osaka Tours from Tokyo

Known as Japan’s kitchen and its comedy capital, Osaka offers a mix of street food, modern entertainment, and historical charm. As Japan’s third-largest city, Osaka draws millions of visitors each year to iconic sites like Osaka Castle, the futuristic Umeda Sky Building, and the lively Dotonbori area, famous for neon signs, canal-side dining, and photo-worthy landmarks like the Glico Running Man. Food is a major part of the experience - this is the birthplace of beloved Japanese street eats like takoyaki (octopus balls) and okonomiyaki (savory pancakes). For families and thrill-seekers, Universal Studios Japan remains one of the country’s top attractions, now featuring Super Nintendo World and popular seasonal events.
