Osaka: Mysterious Back Alleys & BBQ Dinner

What To Expect
Stop 1
⏱ 30 minAdmission includedWe get things started with a quick jaunt through an old school shōtengai (shopping street) to see some of the "old" before hitting the neon lights of Shinsekai. Learn about local mascots with a drink in hand to warm us up before the back alleys really start.
Stop 2
⏱ 2hThis is the reason you booked this tour. Nishinari is known for many things, and we're gonna go have a look. Abandoned house, dark alleyways and karaoke bars are the norm here. Expect the Unexpected.
Stop 3
⏱ 30 minWelcome to Aki's BBQ spot! A locally owned and operated spot where we finish every one of our back alley tours. Deliciously smoked meat and cheap drinks to finish the night off with a smile.
