My name is Zoher, but everyone calls me Zo. I’ve been living in Japan for over 31 years and guiding English-speaking visitors around Kansai for more than 20 years. I specialize in private, relaxed tours for cruise guests and travelers who value comfort, smooth pacing, and flexibility. Whether visiting Kyoto, Nara, Osaka, Kobe, or Himeji, each tour is tailored to your interests, energy level, and schedule—never rushed and never “one size fits all.” Some guests enjoy history and culture, others prefer scenic walks, hidden spots, or excellent local cuisine—most appreciate a thoughtful balance. As a multilingual guide with strong cross-cultural experience, I help you feel comfortable and confident while discovering Japan. Many guests say the day feels less like a tour and more like spending time with a knowledgeable local friend. That’s exactly the experience I aim to provide. I would be delighted to help you enjoy Kansai in a refined, relaxed, and memorable way. Important Information: I can accompany you inside historical monuments; however, I am not a nationally licensed guide. Tours are not covered by insurance.

The private tour we took with Zoher Chenti was spectacular… we visit all the “must” and other places in Kyoto, Nara and Osaka in one and a half day . He is a vey kind person… we had lot of fun with him. I really recomend him for your next adventure in Japan!! He also surprised us by taking us to other places not scheduled in the original itinerary! He also knows all the best photo spots everywhere. He is the best!!!

Zo was an excellent guide. He took our family of six (ranging in ages from 9-72) by subway to Nara. Despite the heat, we saw and did a lot. We learned a lot from him. He answered every question we had. He even purchased extra food treats for us so that we could try authentic Japanes food. He was patient and kind. When he realized that the heat was getting to us, he adjusted plans and helped us use more public transportation. He suggested the little train up to Osaka Castle. What a day! If you are looking to learn more about Japan and its culture, Zo is your man. We started out with Zo as our guide but by the end of the day we are proud to call him a friend. With Zo guiding you, it will be a great day for you too. We highly recommend him!

First of all I need to thanks Zo, for being flexible with the schedule we were able to visit Kyoto Castle when our tour was for Nara we did both and without Zo we wouldn't be able to do this, he was very knowledgeable about all the history in Nara the place is beautiful and it was one of our favorite tours in Japan, don't hesitate to book this tour with Zo! Thanks for all.

We were so grateful to have Zo help us around. The spots he was able to take us to really made for great memories. Since we were there as a cruise spot there wasn't a lot of time. Zo was able to fit in the highlights and make us want to come back when we have more time to explore more. He even surprised my young daughter with a little Nara deer plushie as a keepsake. We are very grateful!

Hire Zoher and realize you have the best tour guide available. Zo can customize any tour to your needs and wants. We wanted to see as much as possible in Nara and Osaka. Zo navigated us to accomplish our wishes. Trains, Subways were fast and easily covered a large area increasing the number of sites to see. We highly recommend Zo as a true professional tour guide.
