Weili Z.

I am passionate about sharing the rich history and cultural heritage of the area, offering insights into local traditions, stories, and folklore that bring each destination to life. As an experienced local guide specializing in tailor-made experiences for international travelers, I design each itinerary around what genuinely interests my guests — not a fixed checklist of sights. I am also very familiar with the food scene and can recommend or arrange great dining experiences based on your preferences. In addition, I can introduce you to entertainment spots and shopping areas, helping you enjoy both the traditional and modern sides of the city for a well-rounded and memorable experience.

Russell B.

Hi! My name is Russell and I lead private hiking, sightseeing, and snowshoeing day tours in the Canadian Rockies, focusing on Kananaskis and the national parks of Banff, Yoho, and Kootenay. My tours operate year-round and include door-to-door transportation and a picnic lunch for all guests, up to a maximum of 11. Tours are customizable according to group preferences and pace, and my itineraries suit a wide range of visitors from couples and families, to groups of friends or corporate outings. Having spent time living in Europe, the US, South America, and the Far East, I feel so lucky to now call Calgary home and am immensely passionate about sharing the beauty of the Canadian Rockies with visitors from all over the world. I prioritize a safe, ethical, and immersive approach to showcasing the Rockies, and am an IGA-certified four-season hiking guide with wilderness first aid training and a class 4 commercial driving license. My goal is simple: to exceed expectations and deliver a highlight-of-the-trip experience, every time. Giving back: A portion of every journey is donated to a hand-picked charity supporting either environmental protection, Indigenous education, or animal welfare. You’ll have the opportunity to choose which cause your booking supports.

Andrii K.

Hello! I’m Andrew, a professional city guide with years of experience leading tours across Poland and Ukraine. As a licensed guide for Wawel Royal Castle and the Schindler’s Factory Museum, I specialize in bringing Kraków’s complex and vibrant history to life. Beyond the city streets, I love showing guests the natural beauty of Poland—from the stunning rock formations of Ojców National Park to the mountain culture of Zakopane. I also offer specialized services in genealogy research, helping families reconnect with their roots and discover their ancestral history. Whether you are looking for a deep dive into history or a perfectly planned trip, I would be honored to be your guide and host in Poland!

Martin H.

Hello! I’m Martin, a local guide from Eastern Austria / Vienna, officially licensed, highly experienced, and still genuinely excited about showing people around Central Europe. I speak English and German, and I can confidently order food in a few other languages — which, as you’ll soon discover, is a very important skill given my specialization in food and wine tours. From elegant Viennese classics to regional surprises, I firmly believe history tastes better when paired with the right dish and a good glass of wine. Over the years, my guests and I have explored Central Europe using just about every mode of transport imaginable. We’ve traveled by modern cars, vintage vehicles, vans, buses, electric trains, diesel trains, steam trains, and even trains with cogwheels. On water, we’ve used large river cruise ships, speed boats, kayaks, and pedal boats — sometimes gracefully, sometimes enthusiastically. On land, we’ve gone even further: horses, donkeys, alpacas… and yes, once even a tank. (No worries — it was for sightseeing, not invading.) My tours are informative but relaxed, well-organized but never stiff, and always adapted to what you enjoy most. Think of me less as a guide and more as a local friend who knows where to go, what to eat, what to drink, and how to get there — preferably in an interesting way. If you’re curious about Central Europe, love good food and wine, and enjoy travel stories that come with a sense of humor, I’d be happy to guide you. Welcome aboard — whatever we’re riding this time.

From Lisbon’s historic streets to untouched natural landscapes, from prestigious wine cellars to hidden gastronomic treasures, every experience will be a true feast for the senses. Portugal awaits you. Are you ready for this adventure?

Dominic W.

Konnichiwa, I'm Dom - nice to meet you! Originally from Switzerland, I fulfilled my dream of moving to Japan and now live in Kyoto. In addition to my daily Aikido training, I work as a private tour guide, offering personalized experiences of the city. Whether you're interested in one of the tours listed on my website or prefer a custom tour based on your interests, I’m here to help make your visit to Kyoto unforgettable. How did I end up in the Land of the Rising Sun? My fascination with Japan began in childhood and has only deepened over the years. I immersed myself in studying the country's culture and history, exploring countless books, and, according to my friends, was probably a bit too enthusiastic about it! I always knew that visiting Japan was inevitable, and it became a reality after I started training in Aikido, a traditional Japanese martial art. This journey brought me to Kyoto, where I completed a two-year intensive program to become an Aikido instructor. Having achieved that goal, I am now teaching while continuing to grow as an instructor, with the long-term vision of one day opening my own dojo. If you’re visiting my website, it means you share an interest in exploring Kyoto’s rich culture and history, an enthusiasm we have in common! I fell in love with Kyoto, and my goal is to help you experience the city in a way that will leave you as captivated by it as I am.

Chie W.

I was born in Hyogo Prefecture, raised in Osaka, and have also lived in Oita and Yamanashi Prefectures. I've visited almost all areas west of Tokyo. I can offer many suggestions for the Kansai region (Kyoto, Osaka, Nara, Kobe), and recently I've been taking a cycling trip along the Shimanami Kaido from Ehime to Hiroshima every six months. I can help you plan a fun and uniquely Japanese trip, including delicious food, a visit to Katsuoji Temple in my hometown of Minoo, temple hopping, other activities, and pottery making. Please feel free to contact me.

Tomomi S.

Hi, My name is Tomomi. I am purely Japanese. I grew up in Morioka, Iwate Prefecture. Morioka is a hidden gem for tourism, ranked second on The New York Times' list of "52 Places to Go in 2023." I want many people to visit this town I love so much and leave with happy memories. I offer not only guided of historically famous sites and castle towns but also services such as interpretation for sake brewery tours etc. I also offer guide services for nearby areas such as Hachimantai and Shizukuishi, as well as for Aomori and Akita, so please feel free to consult me about anything. I look forward to meeting you all.

Akie S.

Hello, my name is Aki, and I’m a local guide based in Hiroshima. I mainly offer private tours of Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park and Miyajima. At the Peace Memorial Park, I help guests understand why Hiroshima was selected as the target of the world’s first atomic bombing, what happened to the city and its people, and how Hiroshima rebuilt itself as a city dedicated to peace. On Miyajima Island, I can introduce you to the famous Itsukushima Shrine and the Great Torii Gate, which appears to float on the sea at high tide. I also enjoy taking guests to Daisho in Temple, a beautiful and peaceful temple at the foot of Mt. Misen. It is one of my favorite places on the island. I am also passionate about hiking and rock climbing. Over the years, I have traveled for climbing in New Zealand, the United States, France, Italy, Switzerland, India, and Australia, as well as at many locations throughout Japan. With more than 25 years of experience, I know a variety of mountains, hiking trails, and climbing areas around Hiroshima. Whether you are interested in history, culture, nature, or outdoor activities, I would be happy to help you discover Hiroshima at a comfortable pace. Please tell me about your interests, and let’s create a tour that suits you. I look forward to welcoming you to Hiroshima!

Mio I.

KONICHIWA!! I am Mio! I was born and raised in Hyogo Prefecture, and I moved to Fukuoka about a year and a half ago. Since I moved here, I have been working as a tour leader, guiding Japanese travelers to beautiful destinations across Kyushu, including Fukuoka, Kumamoto, Miyazaki, Kagoshima, and Saga Prefectures. Through my job, I've had the opportunity to discover many amazing places and experience the unique culture of each region. Personally, I think Fukuoka has the best food in Japan! If you'd like to explore places beyond the typical tourist attractions and experience authentic local life, I'd love to be your guide. On my tours, we'll visit hidden gems that are still unknown to most international visitors, where you can meet local people and enjoy authentic experiences. And if you're a big foodie, you definitely have to visit the Munakata area of Fukuoka! It's home to incredibly fresh seafood and wonderful restaurants that many tourists never get the chance to discover.

Patrick M.

I have loved Japan since my high school homestay in Kyoto. I came back a couple of times and lived in Sendai and Yamanashi. I currently reside in Nagano. I have lived here for sixteen years. I have explored the country and traveled to all 47 prefectures. Also, I am a travel writer, and I have written many articles about Nagano and Japan. I know the geography, history, economics, and so forth of the prefecture. I have training in culture, as I have a masters degree in intercultural understanding. I know a lot about culture in general, and Japanese culture. At the same time, I have much experience working with tourists. For many years in America, I worked in various tourist venues like hotels, restaurants, and gift shops. Currently in Japan, because of my travel writing, I follow tourist trends. On my own, I have explored the prefecture extensively. I have hiked many of the trails and mountains. I have visited all the major sights and many unknown but interesting places. Along with my native language, English, I speak fluent Japanese and Spanish. I can guide in any of those languages and help people navigate places because of my high level Japanese.

Akira Y.

Hi there, I'm Akira. — welcome to Japan! Born and raised in Yokohama, I've spent my entire career helping people communicate and connect: first as an English conversation instructor and teacher trainer, then as Head of the Education Department, and eventually as Director and CEO of a language school. What does that mean for you as my guest? It means easy to understand English communication, a warm and patient guiding style, and genuine, engaging conversation throughout the day — not just a list of facts and dates. I love sharing the stories behind what you see: the history, the culture, everyday life, and how Japan continues to change today. Having worked extensively in Tokyo and lived my whole life in and around Yokohama, I know this region inside and out — from the iconic landmarks to the quiet local spots most visitors never find on their own. Every tour I offer can be fully customized to match your interests, walking pace, and curiosity, whether that's history, food, photography, or simply a relaxed day of exploring. I can't wait to share my hometown and the wider Kanagawa area with you. Let's make your trip to Japan unforgettable!

Arun H.

Hi, welcome to Japan! I'm an experienced travel advisor working out of Osaka, but new on GoWithGuide. I can be your guide, arrange your hotels, restaurants and transport, and give you practical advice on how to navigate this wonderful but sometimes confusing country. My tours here only include guiding, but if you want more services, just tell me. I'm Indian of origin but have found the love of my life in Japan years ago, and I now live in Osaka with my wife and our three lovely children.

Nelson O.

Originally from Brazil with a Bachelor’s degree in Tourism, I spent five years studying and working in Toronto, Canada, before moving to my wife’s hometown of Okinawa in 2017. Today, Okinawa is home, where we’re raising our two daughters. Over the years, I’ve grown to love Okinawa not just as a beautiful place, but as a place I truly call home. As a local guide, active diver, and surfer, I enjoy sharing the island I know and love with people from around the world. I believe the best experiences are more than simply visiting famous places. They’re about sharing stories, trying local food, discovering beautiful scenery, having a few laughs, and seeing Okinawa through the eyes of someone who lives here. I love connecting with people from different countries and, hopefully, turning a day together into a great memory—and sometimes even a lasting friendship. Whether you’re interested in Okinawa’s history, culture, nature, food, or simply want to explore at your own pace, I’ll create an experience around what you enjoy. I’ll take care of the details so you can relax, have fun, and enjoy your time on the island. Come explore Okinawa with me, share a few stories, and experience the island like a local. I hope you’ll leave not only with great memories of Okinawa, but also with a new friend.
