Private Kyoto Arashiyama Custom Half-Day Tour by Chartered Vehicle

See Osaka your own way by chartering a private vehicle. Choose a limousine, van, or bus, and create your own 8-hour sightseeing tour. Learn about Japanese history at Osaka Castle, soak up the views from the Umeda Sky building, and see where the local nightlife happens in the Dotonbori district. A driver is included and, if you wish, you can upgrade your tour to include a guide.

In the morning, get picked up by your driver at an agreed upon location in central Osaka. Settle in to your private vehicle and get ready for a fully customizable tour of Osaka's highlights.

Recommended sites include:

Osaka Castle: Symbol of the city and one of Japan's most famous castles. The castle is situated in the center of Osaka and, as well as informative displays, offers souvenir shops and the opportunity to take pictures with warrior-attired staff outside.

Dotonbori: The city's most famous shopping and entertainment district, famous for its historic theaters (all gone now), shops, and restaurants. This is where you will see the famed 'Glico running man' neon sign.

Shitennoji Temple: The oldest Buddhist temple in Japan, built in 593 by Prince Shotoku, who first brought in Buddhism to Japan. It maintains its original Asuka period design after careful reconstruction following many fires throughout the centuries.

Floating Garden Observatory (Umeda Sky Building): This spectacular high-rise building offers a great view of Osaka. The two 40-story main towers are connected at the top by bridges crossing an expansive atrium — the 'floating garden' — in the center.

Your tour concludes with a drop-off in a central location of your choosing.
