If you’re looking to switch up the peace and tranquility of lantern-lit Kyoto for neon-lit, animatronic-crab-adorned entertainment districts, you’ve come to the right place. You’ll take the bullet train from Kyoto Station to Osaka and explore this food-obsessed city with your host, a local insider. Discover another side of Japan as you visit fast-paced entertainment districts like the canal-side neighborhood Dōtombori or neighboring Namba, both of which are located in the heart of Osaka. On the other side of the canal, check out Shinsaibashi, a shopping district that’s a mecca to modernity, then delve into sub-culture in Amerikamura, an area to the west that’s the heart of Osaka’s youth culture.
