🇯🇵 OSAKA TRAVEL GUIDE 2023 | 3 days in osaka | eating, playing, exploring osaka + day trip options!

[@troyoxford]

Thank you! We are planning a trip this year and I found this to be the most helpful KZbin video so far. I really appreciate that you included practical and descriptive shots. And I see you and your family are lovely people, but thank you for thinking of your audience and not making the video mostly about yourselves like so many other KZbinrs! :D Looking forward to your next video

[@eileensworld]

Thank you for the feedback Troy! I wasn’t allowed to show my lovely family too much because they are not being compensated for their appearance 😛.

[@luciaandglynn]

We are going to Osaka in October thanks for this

[@eileensworld]

I love both Tokyo and Osaka for different reasons, it’s like your’e asking me to pick a favorite child!

Found your vlog as I'm doing a research of what's new in Osaka for the family..... I was there in 2016 but things might have changed after COVID..... Still informative & helpful as wel.... Cheers ... From Singapore & Malaysia!!

[@hahahabit3242]

this is exactly what i was looking for in a vlog. thank you!

[@eileensworld]

🙏🏼 thank you for watching!

[@NomadicAstro]

great episode! Really enjoyed this one as myself is going through similar process as you exploring the world while semi retired. I normally stay in the northern umeda area in Osaka when I visit so it's informative to see more southern districts oriented content. Kyoto tho, took me around 9 days in february to fully enjoy. There are just so many gems (sometimes hidden) there. I highly recommend starting around Gion area, which Nohga is a great hotel with an amazing restaurant (cicion) as a base for exploration. While there, I highly recommend hopping on a train to Uji for a day trip. Uji s got some great bakeries and food. The most most insanely delicious thing ive tasted is a Duck Burger and Duck Shabu. All in the same shop. seriously one of the best things I've ever had.

[@eileensworld]

Thanks for sharing this! How is semi retired life treating you?

[@khajastaansari6051]

your father 😂😂😂 he reminds me of mine thats exactly what he would have done leave the resturant if there is any ciggarette smoke. I love how animated Japan is!

[@eileensworld]

Father ain’t got no time for for secondhand smoke.

[@francinejaninesarmiento1797]

Japan has a rich history and it is really one of the places on my bucket list! I'm excited to see what you are going to upload next as I want to see how your trip went! Also, have you tried using a duffle bag for your travel? I recommend using the Bento Bag from Nomad Lane. I've been using this bag as my personal item bag for months now and it is such a hack. I tried using packing cubes and they are amazing but now I switched to a duffle bag. Tried Nomad Lane's Bento bag and it's a good choice!

[@eileensworld]

Thanks for the recommendation! Right now with the way I’m traveling, it’s more convenient for me to have something I can carry on my back.

[@nikkirosety]

Girl’s gotta eat! What cities do you want to visit in Japan?

[@asheirahs_nook]

@@eileensworld Mostly Kyoto and Tokyo (Tokyo as last, I'll probably spend all my money there >.

Hi Eileen! thanks for the amazing Osaka travel guide! I'm going to Osaka soon, just wondering if it was convenient walking around in the kimono as you visit the main tourist attractions for a whole day, and any recommended kimono rental shops?

[@eileensworld]

I rented from VASARA in both Kyoto and Tokyo and had a good experience. They have a location in Osaka too. I didn’t rent in Osaka but try to find a rental shop close to where you want to take photos. That way, you don’t have to rush back to return the kimono on time!

TOKYO FOR SURE 🤘

[@markrobiso]

Sorry, how to buy online tickets from Tokyo--Osaka (or vice versa), please? Your vlogs are really awesome, thank you!

[@eileensworld]

Hey Mark, try this website: smart-ex.jp/en/ My preferred method of buying a ticket is to purchase it at a station office directly. Major stations (Shinjuku) will have larger offices with english speaking employees who can help.

[@DM-vo8jz]

I'm japanese. I recommend to buy the tickets at ticket counter in major stations! You can buy it normally within 10minute...!

[@eggsy8372]

Hi thank you so much for this video! I have a question. So, this summer I'm planning a solo trip to Osaka, but I also want to visit some other places like Kyoto, Teshima, and Tottori. I'd like some tips and advice on traveling there, as well as an effective route to reach all these destinations. Should I go to Osaka → Kyoto → Teshima → Tottori, and then back to Osaka, or is there a better way? I appreciate your help! Thank you.

[@eileensworld]

Hi there! I have not been to Toshiba or Tottori so I don’t have any insight to share with you. Osaka to Kyoto is around an hour by train so super easy to get back and forth from. I know many people who fly into a larger city (Tokyo or Osaka), travel around, and then go back to the city they arrived in before they leave

[@jude_sr]

Hi! May I ask when you went? Planning a trip end of May/early June and I wonder what the weather will be like.

[@eileensworld]

I was there end of May to mid April

[@AlejandroRodriguez-ch6nq]

I’m doing a 14 day trip in Japan and I want to see so much but I know it’s impossible because 7 days can be easily sunk into Tokyo. Would you recommend b-lining to Osaka as soon as you land and then go to Tokyo or stay in Tokyo then go to Osaka? I also plan on visiting amori and Akita while in Japan this November.

[@eileensworld]

14 days is a lot more than what most people get to spend in Japan so you can definitely see a lot. I always land in Tokyo, spend time there, then I take the Shinkansen to Osaka. Where are you flying into?

[@AlejandroRodriguez-ch6nq]

@@eileensworld Narita, I know it makes more sense to spend time right when you land especially with so much to do in Tokyo but I also want to see stuff both south and north of Japan. Northern japan doesn’t get enough credit. I’m going this November

[@eileensworld]

That’s awesome, there’s definitely more to discover outside of the major cities. It looks like you have your cities picked out but I really loved Hokkaido, maybe in the future for you 🤭

[@MrFabiomdiniz]

Thanks for the video! How did you receive yout bags in osaka after sending via yamato? Did you send them to be picked up at a yamato counter in Osaka?

If you have cash on hand (like we did) to exchange and find a good rate, it’s equally as good.
