Frequently Asked Questions
Booking & Account
How does booking an airport transfer work on GoWithGuide? Is it different from booking a private tour?
The flow is identical to any other GoWithGuide booking: search → choose your car → enter details → pay online. No extra log-ins, no redirection to third-party sites. Your transfer will appear in GWG along any tours you have booked.
Simply use the search box to find the perfect transfer service for you, then follow the on-screen instructions to make the online booking.
Will my airport-transfer booking appear in my Bookings list and confirmation emails, just like my tour reservations?
Yes. Every confirmed transfer is listed in your Bookings list, and you’ll receive a confirmation email that includes pick-up instructions and 24/7 support contact details.
Price & Payment
Is the fare all-inclusive or will I pay extra on the day?
The checkout total already includes the vehicle, driver meet-&-greet, taxes, tolls, and standard waiting time—so there are no hidden fees for the base ride.
How do I make a payment?
If you do not have an account with us, before making a payment you will be prompted to create an account. If you already have an account with us but not logged in, you will be prompted to log in before you make a purchase. Once you are signed up or logged in, you will be able to make a payment. You can pay either by credit/debit card or PayPal.
Is my payment secure?
Yes, your payment is secure. You can pay for airport transfers using either credit/debit card or PayPal through GoWithGuide’s SSL-protected checkout. We comply with PCI-DSS standards, so your payment information is encrypted end-to-end and never stored on our servers.
Policies & Refunds
What’s the cancellation window, and when will I get my refund?
Each local provider sets its own free-cancellation deadline, typically 24 hours before pick-up. The exact cut-off is displayed at checkout and again on your Booking Details page. Cancel within that window and we automatically refund the full fare to your original card, usually within 5-10 business days (bank processing times may vary).
What happens if my flight is delayed or cancelled?
Enter your flight number when booking and your driver will track it in real time. If there’s a delay but it's still within the free waiting period (see below), no action is needed. For longer delays or cancellations, contact the 24/7 support number in your Booking Details page (can also find it in the confirmation email); we’ll reschedule or refund according to the supplier’s policy.
Driver & Vehicle
Are drivers licensed and insured, and will they speak English?
Yes. All drivers hold professional licences, carry commercial insurance and have passed background checks. Most airport-route drivers speak English; if you need another language, add it in Special Instructions and we’ll confirm availability before pick-up.
Which vehicle types can I book, and how do I know they’ll fit my group and luggage?
Search results list the main categories—economy sedans, business sedans, minivans, minibuses, and premium cars—along with the passenger and suitcase capacity for each. Pick the class that matches your head-count and bags, and you’re set. All vehicles are non-smoking and air-conditioned.
Can I request a vehicle with a child seat or child booster?
Yes, you can. When you search, you'll see whether a car offers a child seat or child booster, and whether it's included or optional.
If it's optional, you’ll have the option to add it on the checkout page.
Where is this transfer service available?
Our partner network spans 3,500+ airports across 180 countries. If an airport shows up in the search bar, you can book a ride there, no need to cross-check elsewhere.
Meet-&-Greet Logistics
Where will the driver meet me, and how will I recognise them?
For airport pick-ups the driver waits in the arrivals hall after customs, holding a sign with your name. The Booking Details page also includes 24/7 support contact details for real-time updates.
How long is the free waiting time, and what if I need more?
Free waiting time varies by car and local provider. You'll see the exact wait time listed on each car option and on the checkout page. If you need extra time, please contact the 24/7 support team listed in your confirmation email.
What should I do if I can’t find my driver?
Check the meeting-point instructions in your Booking Details page, then call or text the driver using the contact details provided. Still stuck? Tap the 24/7 support link or phone the support number in your confirmation email and we’ll assist immediately.
How early should I schedule pickup for my return to the airport?
We recommend setting your hotel/airbnb pickup at least 2 hours before a domestic flight and 3 hours before an international flight, allowing for traffic. Your search results display an estimated travel time to help you choose.
Support & Contact
Is there 24/7 help if plans change at the last minute?
Yes. The Booking Details page lists round-the-clock phone and live-chat channels to support you. Reach out any time for rescheduling, driver queries or emergency assistance.

Tour of Ishiyama-dera Temple
(Highlights) This temple is popular not only among pilgrims and dedicated Buddhists but also among ordinary citizens. It is well-known as the place where a 12th -century woman writer Murasaki-shikibu worked on the manuscript of her masterpiece "Genji-monogatari (tale of Genji)". People visit the temple to pray for the safe childbirth, peace in the family and happy marriages. It is also the place where people can enjoy viewing the beautiful harvest moon known as "Ishiyama-no-syugetsu (moonlight over the temple of Ishiyama-dera) in mid-September. Not only Buddhist rituals but also jazz concerts and other festive events are held at that time. In mid-August, in addition, a magnificent fireworks show can be seen in the nearby river bank accompanied by as many as 3,000 candles lit in line in the same bank a bit away and "Bon" dancing" is performed by visitors each year. The 900-year-old temple is the attractive place surrounded by natural beauties throughout the year: plum blossoms in winter, cherry blossoms in spring, fresh green leaves in early summer and colored leaves in the fall. ( How to visit the temple and enjoy) After you go through the main gate, walk to the admission-collecting booth, where you are asked to pay 500 yen. They will give you a leaflet explainig about the temple in its entirety.Then, go up the steep hill and you will reach the "Hondo" main hall, which houses the magnificent "Go-honzon-sama", or " Kannon-sama", the Goddess of mercy, which is the principal icon of the temple. There you have to pay another 300 yen, then you can step in to the sacred hall, where the huge image sits. You have to take your shoes off beforehand. Taking a photo is not allowed there. You can sit on the chair before the image and offer a prayer. Afterward, walk on the path that leads you to whatever places or buildings there are in the compound. You will never get lost, since there are signboards everywhere directing your way and the path is simple. One hour will be enough for the tour of the entire temple. (Others) The bus fare is 230 yen and the entrance fee is 500 yen ( plus 300 yen for entering the "Hondo" main hall). You can also take a private railway train ride for almost the same fare.

Koichi W.
Hi! I'm Koichi. I was born in Osaka, I studied in Kyoto when I was a university student. Now I live in Shiga next to Kyoto. I am a national government licensed tour guide. I have been guiding about 160 groups over the past twelve months. I usually guide my customers mainly in Kansai region including Kyoto, Nara, Osaka, Kobe and Shiga by public transportation systems. Well, I am curious about Japanese history, especially the history of Japan's ancient times since I was raised next to the world biggest mausoleum of the ancient Emperor called "Nintoku" in Sakai city Osaka which has just become one of the world cultural heritage sites. I dug out some ancient earthen ware vessels around there when I was a primary school student like the adventure archaeologist “Indiana Jones" (It’s our secret!!). That was my hobby. Now, one of my hobbies is outdoor activities such as mountaineering, kayaking, skiing and others. So I would like to take you to some good places where you can enjoy Japanese unique nature. I love to guide foreign visitors from all over the world. I think it is my calling or heavenly given job. Let's go and enjoy together! I hope to see you soon.

Nori I.
I have lived in the US, UK, and India for approximately 20 years, and I’ve also traveled to about 30 countries. Living abroad for such a long time made me realize Japan’s value and sparked my interest in working as a translator/guide for foreigners. I’m truly passionate about introducing people to historical sites, authentic Japanese culture, and stunning natural spots that may not be widely known to people outside of Japan. There are countless places that I believe people would love. I am a certified English interpreter guide certified by Kyoto City, Uji City and Otsu City. Originally from Nagoya, I cover areas around the Kansai region including Kyoto, Shiga and Mie. I’m here to ensure your trip to Japan becomes an unforgettable memory. Looking forward to meeting you!
