- Uncover 13 BEST things to do in the Namba and Dotonbori area in Osaka with kids. You'll be blown away by the countless fun activities and attractions there are in the area that surrounds Namba Station.
We could've dedicated an entire week to purely exploring and eating our way through the awesome insanity that is Dotonbori. If you're visiting Osaka with kids, we highly recommend coming to this area after the sun has set, it's one of the best things to do in Osaka at night. Gawk at the giant restaurant signboards and immerse yourself in the craziness.
While you're in Dotonbori, Osaka, don't forget to snap a selfie with the famous Glico Man, take a stroll on the boardwalk at Tombori River, eat all the Takoyaki and Japanese street snacks that your stomach can handle, and get your retail therapy on inside the shopping arcade at Shinsaibashi, Osaka.
That being said, we can't call it an Osaka travel guide without including the famous Hozenji Temple and its moss statue. Be sure to take your kids there and make a wish (it might just come true). If the kids have had enough of sightseeing for the day, take the minions to stretch their legs on the amazing rooftop at Namba Parks. If that's not enough physical exertion for them, head over to Round1 Stadium in Namba, Osaka, and go absolutely wild inside. This was, hands down, one of the top things to do in Osaka with kids and adults alike. Get inside a batting cage, play a round of bowling, spend hours at the arcade, go rollerblading or segway riding.. anything is possible inside this amazing entertainment centre.

DAMN Effing proskater Tina!!!! That twist!! Dayuuuum
Yeah she is pro! She goes backwards for so easily, I'm trying to skate going forward 😂
Can you or Helmi skate or rollerblade?
Yes i can (nick) helmi noob
KUKURU 🐈! Yes i love dotombori hellla good, btw so no lapel mic right - pretty good despite the crowd picked up well
I (Tina) basically yelled my way through Japan. I think lapel would've been a good idea. Locals walking past be like.. she rite? Why's she yelling so loud? Bloody Chinese people LOL
"are you cheating on me?" YEEAAHH! 😂
Shinsaibashi - the place that we bought lots different flavors of Kit Kat! ^^
Japan kit kat so good lol the seasonal ones are our favourites cos they make them so different but good.
Arcades, bowling and batting cages! Childhood memories right there
I know what you mean all the arcades and bowling we wanted. We don't have batting cages in Aus so we were trying that out a few times lol It's really theraputic smashing a ball 😂
These kids living it up better than most adults 😂
The Glico Man photo shoot! yup it's a MUST ^^
Tina crawl into the camera like the glico man ! Wazzup fam 🙌
haha should have had her run down the boardwalk like the glico man 😂
shop until your drop??? 🤣🤣🤣
The street art is great too, I see.
for real, endless shopping haha kinda a good and bad thing 😂 good for me, bad for the pocket
Love the big octopus outside the takoyaki museum! And then the huge crab
Great video 👍 really enjoyed watching 😊 nice channel you have my friend.
This is the best, most thorough and fun video of the Namba and Dotonbori area! I've learned so much and can't wait to take our kiddos back there later this year. Urban Oasis looks awesome! And thanks for always showing respect for the culture :) 🤙🏼
Thanks Kensho - really appreciate you're comments! You're going to have so much fun when you go back with the fam.
Love the shots of the neon Dotonbori sign and the boat in the river - you do a nice job with your b roll!
Thanks guys 😊
Wow lots of things to do with kids too! Our kid will love Japan ^^ thanks for sharing this info guys :)
You're welcome! We find Japan super kid friendly and so much fun for families.
Really enjoy all your B Rolls and cinematic shots. Jack Sparrow looked legit. Love crab. My mom use to cooke live crabs. She would boil them alive and once a few jumped out and spent the rest of the night looking for them.
Thanks SC! lol those crabs jailbreak! ruuuuuuuun
Hangry By Nature One of the many adventures of growing up in a Filipino Family 😀 🦀
Oh we loveee Dotonbori! Especially with all the street food on offer. Takoyaki is always a must over there 👍🏻
Awesome guide, your kids seem enjoying it so much too 😊
Miss the street food scene in Dotonbori! lol Thanks for watching!
We cant rollerskate, literally we can't. We are horrible at anything with wheels hahahah
Say takoyaki - yucky yucky 😂🤭
Yes sunset - golden hour is always 👌😉
Perfect! 👊
Bringing back a lot of memories for us. Such an awesome area to explore. I saw you got a short clip of the Pablo store. Oh so good! Did you try one of their cheesecakes?
Even though we just got back not long ago, we miss it so much lol Yeah we did try it a few times. Was the best things but was hard to hide it from the kids lol
hey your channel is really cool , i love it , have a nice day , wish you all the best guys
Thanks so much Kitchiko! Wish you all the best too 😍
yeah we love the Dotonbori ambience too, we went there at night and full of lights ^^ got takoyaki there too! :)
Same here! it's so nice and full of energy there!
Wow there's a Ferris Wheel there?! YESS TAKOYAKI, my favourite, did you say sample Takoyaki? Kanidoraku was so pricey we only ate 2 limbs of the crab, shared haha!! Iconic Glico man, where all of us start doing that pose haha!
it's such an odd shape lol only in Japan. We didn't try it cos it looked really pricey. Did it taste good?
your kids are so cute!!!! love how they try to say takoyaki
Well this video just reminded me that we did not spend enough time in Osaka! So many places to see and do! G3 would have really enjoyed the Round 1 Stadium.. You're a pro at skating btw... Lol! Missing all the good food too! Great video guys!
it's ok, there never is enough time anywhere in Japan. just so much to see and do haha
the boardwalk looks so nice to walk and relax
One of my favourite parts of Dotonbori
This looks so interesting! I've wanted to visit Osaka but haven't yet really started researching to begin planning a trip. Still not sure if we'll do it as a whole family trip or as an anniverary getaway, but I appreciate these kid-friendly ideas!
If you go either with family or your anniversary, you'll definately have fun! there is so much do for all ages 😄
the dragon shrine had become my number 1 place to go to know hahaha, love dragons !!
yeah it's really awesome to see. I have never seen anything like it.
Stop showing off andy 😉👌😉 nice camera work was that the dji gimbal on the twist? Or just post?
Most likely I was showing off ahaha which scene are you talking about?
Hangry By Nature 3:52 spin
"you are cheating on me?" that had us cracking up hahahah
hahahha the little rascal - "I want to go playground" all he ever thinks about.
So many cool shops over there. You really have some roller skating skills. 11 levels is nuts. I tried that Bull ride also and it’s tough. So much to do there. With all your Japan footage, almost seems you guys live there. Your kids are so cute. Had fun watching.
It's amazing how much stuff there is to do in Japan and they're all so cool! lol We wish we lived in Japan so we could do more. It's so hard to hold onto the bull when it spins so abruptly, can't imagine it on a real bull lol fun ride.
Whoa Tina's skating skills! And Andy's bull riding skill 😂
I (sue) looooove looove looovee the Disney store!! We didn't visit Disneyland, so the store was like heaven for me haha!
hahah you and the kids can spend time together there. They didn't want to leave. Disneyland would be overload of enjoyment for you 😂
Nice romantic place at that rooftop park! Such a super cute date Andy! "Are you cheating on me?" "Yeah!" 😂😂😂
he answered that with way too much enthusiasm hahah the next generation 🤦♂️😂
Yo what's up fam?! You guys are our favourite Aussie fam TH-camrs haha 😆We've been to Dotonbori a few times now and had ZEROOO idea that place with the huge octopus was a TAKOYAKI MUSEAM?! Wtf lol absolutely mindblown right now 🤯Awesome guide guys! Definitely flooding us with those Japan memories...
Yo yo!! aaaw thanks guys 😊! haha it's not so obvious, we only stumbled across it in our research. We also have heaps of japan memories and even the japan blues when we make these vids. Want to go back so bad hahah
Dotonbori is such a sweet spot, nice mix of food, lights n entertainment. also marks the occasion for first time we ate ichiran and melon pan 😂🤤 life changing experiences. Oooo didn't know there's a fugu store would have tried that. Y'all found a bunch of interesting spots we didn't know about gonna have to make a wish and hit up amerikamura next time we're in town
We totaly understand the life changing experiences when it comes to Japan! We found for ourselves the robot toilets totally blew our minds lollll There are so many restaurants to try, just so little time 😆 typical Japan, need to make more trips back or just move there 😂
Playground > Andy !
bad! little brat, I just wanted some company but full on rejected LOL
What's the brand of your stroller?
This was the bugaboo
@@HangryByNature thank you
Jack Sparrow!!
"This is the day you will always remember as the day you almost caught Captain Jack Sparrow" 😂
