We had a great evening touring Gion with Zied.
He was very knowledgeable, could answer all our questions and gave us a really good insight into the area and its history.

“Excellent service from start to finish. The guides are Latino, so communication in Spanish was perfect. They were very friendly and explained everything clearly and thoroughly. Highly recommended!”

We visited Kyoto and Osaka with our family in July. Zied guided us for three days and it was a very enjoyable experience. From culinary discoveries to historical anecdotes, he knew how to keep us interested and adapt his tour to our young children. We really enjoyed talking to him about Japanese life and the daily routine of the locals.

This was our first time in Kyoto and we had a family group of 6 on the tour. It was the perfect way to spend our first night in the city. Zied was our guide, and he is amazing. He is friendly, knowledgeable, patient, considerate, and informed. It was so nice to have an English speaking guide walk us through Kyoto and Gion, sharing history, culture, and fun facts. We had a sweet treat, the matcha tiramisu, during the tour at a beautiful cafe. We even got a glimpse of a geisha walking down the street!! That was very exciting. Having a guide was so invaluable and we wouldn’t have seen so many things without him. 5+ stars for this tour, and our evening with Zied!

Go Japan Guides has been a pleasure to work with! Zied truly knows Japan inside and out and has been wonderful in coordinating tours throughout the entirety of Japan. I look forward to touring with Zied and his guides and coordinating many more tours with Go Japan Guides.
Fantastic Service!
