Review of Osaka’s pub crawl, with bar stops, welcome shots, drink discounts, a nightclub finish, costs, tips, and honest drawbacks.
“The tour was amazing! The 3 hosts went with us about 30-40 people, everyone speaks English and super friendly. We stayed at the first stop (meet up place) for a couple of hours with an option of all-you-can-drink for 1,100 yen. The second place was tiny and more chilled. The third bar was much more spacey with good music, ended up going to the hip-hop club on the top floor. I had so much fun and would definitely recommend to my friends.”

The karaoke bar was a blast — locals welcomed us like friends. This felt like hanging out with a local rather than a typical tour.”

“What an unforgettable evening! ✨ We had the most fantastic time exploring hidden izakayas tucked away in little alleys — each one filled with incredible food, atmosphere, and the warmest people. We tried dishes we’d never have known to order ourselves (and loved every one of them!), along with some seriously good sake and cocktails. Koda was the absolute star of the show — an amazing host from start to finish (and even after! 😂). So knowledgeable, welcoming, and fun — it felt like exploring with a local friend who knew all the best spots. Couldn’t recommend this experience more highly! 🌸🍶💫”
