Free cancellation available

Duration: 6 hours
Service animals welcome

The highlight of this tour is that you can enjoy both sightseeing around Osaka and a pottery experience all in one day.

In the morning, we visit Osaka Castle, a historic landmark with over 400 years of history, where you can feel its powerful energy. I will share with you the timeless charm and fascinating history of this beloved castle.

For lunch, we head to Shinsekai, a deep local spot in Osaka, for a kushikatsu hopping experience. To convey this unique fun, we’ll hop between multiple shops—the local way to enjoy kushikatsu. Be sure to experience the culture of “no double-dipping” with your taste buds!

In the afternoon, we return to the castle town area for a pottery workshop. The studio is a renovated traditional row house over 120 years old, where the owner shares the joy that pottery brings. Touching the clay will help soothe your travel fatigue. Your finished piece will be fired later and shipped to your home, allowing you to enjoy your travel memories across time.
