I'm Glenn M., your private tour guide in Osaka

Guide #37993

Hi . . . my name's Glenn! I first came to Japan over 30 years ago and spent the majority of my time in Osaka where I developed a passion for Japanese FOOD & DRINK! Born and raised in Canada my native language is English. In addition to visiting the famous landmarks, my services provide a truly LOCAL experience for those who are serious about their food & drink. Be it a fast, cheap & tasty food stand, a back alley "dive-bar", retro-coffee shop, cozy jazz bar, quiet cigar club, or a "Once in-a-Lifetime" experience at a high-class establishment, all the places I will take you not only serve scrumptiously DELICIOUS food & drinks . . . but each place also has their own unique story and ATMOSPHERE that reflects Osaka's rich history and culture. I'll explain the protocol & etiquette that's important to ensure you (as well as the locals) enjoy the dining EXPERIENCE to its FULLEST! If you're interested in a truly "authentic" food/drink adventure but are afraid to do so on your own, please contact me for more information.

    We landed in Osaka at 3pm and began our tour with Glenn at 6pm! He provided a great intro to Japan and we got to go to a couple places for kushi-katsu, sashimi and sake, and the best takoyaki ever. Glenn was friendly and patient with our jet lagged 10 year old. Would highly recommend an evening with Glenn!

    Our tour was excellent and Glenn was a great guide providing us with well rounded tour. He took us to unique traditional spots of interest that we would have not experienced otherwise.

    I can’t say enough good things about Glenn and the tour he provided for us. We had very limited time in Osaka, and he did a great job of showing us all the highlights and making sure we had a satisfying meal to top it off. He made sure to contact us in advance regarding our tastes and preferences and planned the tour and dinner accordingly. No doubt one of the highlights...

    Glenn is very personable and easy to understand. We enjoyed spending the day with him seeing the sights and walking neighborhoods that only a resident would know. He took us to a fabulous sashimi restaurant that only the locals would know about. Glenn is easy to work with and we highly recommend!
