Hey! I'm Serena – a proud Neapolitan, born and raised in the beautiful and chaotic heart of Naples. I’m 36 years old, and being "Napolitana" is not just part of my identity — it’s something I carry with pride and joy in everything I do. I consider myself an ambassador of my culture, and I feel truly honored to represent the traditions, values, flavors, and spirit of my city to guests from around the world. I hold official certifications as a Licensed Tour Leader and Licensed Environmental Hiking guide, which allows me to lead a wide range of experiences — from walking tours in the historic center to nature trails across the stunning landscapes of Campania. I specialize in guided tours and experiences in Naples, Capri, Sorrento and Amalfi Coast and Mount Vesuvius — each destination with its own charm and unique stories. I also offer custom-made itineraries tailored to your needs, interests, and pace — whether you’re a foodie, a history lover, a nature enthusiast, or just curious to see the authentic side of southern Italy.

Nobu S.

Hi! I'm Nobu, a local tour guide based in Osaka, offering tours in both Osaka and Nara! I was born in Japan but grew up in New Zealand, where I spent most of my life before eventually returning to Japan. Having experienced life in both countries, I understand how exciting, fascinating, and sometimes confusing Japan can be for international visitors! My goal is simple: to help you explore Osaka and Nara your way and create unforgettable memories! Whether it's your first visit to Japan or you've been here several times, I want you to feel comfortable exploring, asking questions, and discovering everything these wonderful places have to offer. My tours are relaxed, friendly, and conversational. There's no need to rush from one attraction to another! Want to stop for photos? Try some delicious local food? Explore a hidden alleyway? Or simply slow down and soak up the atmosphere? I'm more than happy to adjust the pace to suit you. And don't worry if you don't know much about Japan or speak Japanese! I'm always happy to answer questions, explain cultural differences, and help you feel more confident exploring. At the end of the day, this is your adventure, not just another sightseeing tour. I hope you'll leave with great photos, wonderful memories, new discoveries, and a deeper appreciation of Japan. Let's explore Osaka and Nara together!

Toshi T.

Hello! I’m Toshi, your local insider and itinerary planner in Kansai. I’m new to GoWithGuide, but I’ve spent over 35 years helping people enjoy life’s most meaningful moments in beautiful places. For decades, I was a destination wedding photographer in San Francisco. My clients came for the photos, but they remembered the whole experience: carefully planned journeys around historic City Hall and the city’s hidden viewpoints, with every detail handled so they could relax. From 2016 to 2018, I led the Canon KelbyOne Worldwide Photowalk, guiding groups of up to 20 along scenic San Francisco routes to support the Spring of Hope Kenya Children’s Home. Today, I bring that same warm hospitality, careful planning, and eye for beauty to Osaka, Kyoto, and all of Kansai. Why travel with me? A local’s eye for the special: I’ll take you beyond the landmarks to quiet side streets, the best viewpoints, and the everyday Japanese life most visitors walk past. Smooth, stress-free days: After decades of managing tight schedules for international clients, I’ll handle the trains, the timing, and the details so your day feels relaxed. Tailored to you: Family, couple, or solo, we’ll build the day around your interests and pace, whether that’s history, food, temples, or hidden neighborhoods. A photographer’s instincts: I won’t run a photography lesson, but I always know where the light is best. I’m happy to point out a great spot or take your picture along the way. Early start for photographers: Every tour offers an optional early start for the best morning light at the first stop, potentially before most visitors arrive: Fushimi Inari’s torii gates, Arashiyama’s bamboo grove, or Osaka Castle’s grounds before the tower opens at 9:00. I can’t guarantee empty sites, especially in peak seasons and on weekends and holidays. Let’s skip the crowded, cookie-cutter routes and plan a day in Kansai that shows you Japan’s true soul. Send me a message, and let’s start planning!

Hello and welcome to Japan! I am a Japan National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter based in Toyama, in the Hokuriku region of Japan. I have over 25 years of experience teaching English in Japan and hold a Master’s degree in TESOL from a university in the United States. My experience as an English educator has taught me how to communicate clearly and make people from different cultural backgrounds feel comfortable and welcome.

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.

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.

Shigeki Y.

Hello! My name is Shigeki, and I live in Nara, Japan. Nara is one of the most historic places in Japan and was the country's first permanent capital over 1,300 years ago. As a local resident, I enjoy sharing the rich history, culture, traditions, and everyday life of this beautiful region with visitors from around the world. Many people know Nara for its friendly deer and famous temples, but there is much more to discover. I enjoy introducing guests to the deeper side of Nara, including Buddhism, traditional neighborhoods, local food, sake culture, and hidden places that many tourists miss. My goal is not only to show you the sights, but also to help you understand the stories, people, and culture behind them. I believe that travel becomes more meaningful when you can connect with local life and gain a deeper understanding of the places you visit. I strive to create tours that are friendly, flexible, and relaxed. Whether you are visiting Japan for the first time or returning to explore beyond the typical tourist attractions, I would be delighted to help you experience the authentic charm of Nara.
