You can definitely do this tour on your own terms, it only uses public transportation. Basically it takes you to a Ferris Wheel, the Osaka castle and a river cruise. Very simple things you can accomplish with Google maps. It stated moderate walking, however is a lot more than that. Being a walking tour, I thought there were going to be more pinturesque sceneries. I do not recommend this tour.

This was an interesting tour, wear good walking shoes for this one! Our guide was beyond fabulous, she really cared for her group and was very informative, and kind. The castle was beautiful, and the lunch was ok. Overall it was a good day.
