A few hours in Nagoya might not seem like much—but with a local host by your side, you’ll tap into the city’s essence. This private experience adapts to your interests in real time: one moment you might be strolling the peaceful grounds of Atsuta Shrine, and the next you’re sampling miso katsu at a beloved neighborhood eatery or chatting with vendors in a local market.
This isn’t just a walking tour—it’s a shared city adventure, shaped by your curiosity and your host’s personal knowledge. You’ll explore side streets, cultural landmarks, and favorite hangouts locals love, with the freedom to change course at any time.
Within 24 hours of booking, you’ll receive a short questionnaire about your interests, and your host will be in touch to co-create a custom itinerary. Whether you're passionate about history, street food, design, or daily life, your Nagoya will be a reflection of you.
Experience Nagoya like a local on a relaxed yet meaningful walking tour. We will reach out after booking with a short questionnaire to tailor the day around your interests. Whether you're curious about traditional temples, bustling food markets, or quiet corners locals love, your route will reflect the real Nagoya. Here are some walkable and free-entry highlights your host may include:
This sacred Shinto site is one of Japan’s most revered, believed to house the legendary sword Kusanagi. Wander its peaceful wooded grounds, pass under centuries-old torii gates, and take in the quiet spiritual atmosphere. Your host will share stories about its role in Japanese mythology and help you notice details most visitors miss.
Step into the vibrant backstreets of Osu—Nagoya’s most eclectic neighborhood. Here, modern subcultures and historical temples coexist. Your host might guide you to a tucked-away shrine, a vintage toy shop, or a hidden café beloved by locals. There’s no entry fee—just your curiosity and appetite for discovery.
You will make your own way to the meeting points
We’ll be in touch within 24 hours after booking to find out more about your personality and interests so we can assign a like-minded local who will create a bespoke experience for you.
