Osaka Bar Hopping: Drink Like an Osakan in Namba's Izakayas

5.0
(34 reviews)

2 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

Namba at night has a version tourists rarely see: narrow alleys, standing bars the size of a closet, izakayas that have been serving the same regulars for decades. This tour gets you into that version, with two drinks included so you're tasting from the first stop.

Your guide picks the route based on the night, some bars are better early, some don't get good until later, and knows the owners well enough to get you seated somewhere a walk-in tourist wouldn't get past the door. Expect a mix of sake, local craft beer, highball, and whatever the bar is known for.

What makes this different: we keep groups small on purpose. A twenty-person bar crawl can't fit into a six-seat izakaya, we can, and that's the point.

Good fit for: travelers who want a real night out, not a photo-op crawl between chain bars. People who like being handed a drink they've never heard of and told why it's good.

We are going to send on yours Whatsapp the location and information to our store, please be aware.
