Frequently Asked Questions

Curious about our city tours? We've compiled answers to the most common questions our explorers ask before embarking on their urban adventures with Gohamoo. If you can't find what you're looking for, our city whisperers are just a message away.

For the best experience, we recommend booking at least 48 hours in advance. The urban treasures wait for no one, and our most sought-after time slots fill quickly—especially during peak seasons when the city's pulse beats strongest. Last-minute bookings are sometimes possible, but why leave your adventure to chance when the city beckons with planning?

Cities reveal different secrets in the rain! We generally operate in light rain (umbrellas provided), but in cases of severe weather, we'll work our magic to reschedule your tour or offer an indoor alternative route showcasing sheltered gems. Sometimes, the glistening streets after rainfall offer the most photogenic views—our guides know exactly which angles capture this ephemeral beauty.

Absolutely! We believe young explorers deserve to uncover urban mysteries too. Many of our tours are designed as family-friendly adventures with engaging stories and interactive elements that captivate curious minds of all ages. For each tour, we indicate a recommended minimum age. Our "Family Discovery" tours specifically include treasure hunt elements and city tales that transform concrete jungles into playgrounds of imagination.

Our standard walking tours cover approximately 2-3 miles (3-5 km) at a leisurely pace over 2-3 hours, with strategic rest stops at interesting locations. For those seeking gentler journeys, our "Easy Stroll" tours cover less ground with more frequent pauses. Each tour description includes a "Physical Level" indicator, ranging from "Gentle Wander" to "Urban Trekker," helping you choose the urban rhythm that matches your step.

While others merely scratch the surface, Gohamoo tours dive into the city's soul. Our guides aren't just information dispensers—they're story weavers, local mavens who unlock invisible doors to hidden courtyards, forgotten tales, and locals-only haunts. We limit our groups to 12 participants to ensure personal attention, and each itinerary undergoes seasonal refreshing to incorporate new discoveries. When you walk with Gohamoo, you're not just seeing a city; you're experiencing its heartbeat.

We believe everyone deserves to taste the city's flavors! When booking, you'll find a dedicated section to note dietary needs—whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, or allergy-related. Our culinary guides work their magic with local eateries to ensure suitable alternatives without compromising the authentic experience. With advance notice (at least 72 hours), we can transform dietary limitations into opportunities to discover specialized local delights even locals might not know about.

Life's milestones deserve extraordinary settings! Our private tours transform celebrations into unforgettable urban adventures—whether it's a proposal amidst historic architecture, a birthday exploration of hidden street art, or a company team-building quest through neighborhood markets. Our "Celebration Specialists" can incorporate surprise elements, champagne stops, or custom themes. We've helped orchestrate over 200 successful proposals on our tours, each one unique as the city itself!

Pack light but prepared! We recommend comfortable walking shoes that have already befriended your feet, weather-appropriate layers (cities can create micro-climates between sun-soaked squares and shaded alleyways), a water bottle to stay hydrated, and your curiosity turned up to maximum. A smartphone or camera captures memories, while a small backpack rather than a heavy shoulder bag keeps your urban exploration comfortable. Tour-specific packing suggestions arrive in your confirmation email.

Gohamoo Tour Guides in Action

Our Journey Through the Urban Tapestry

Born from a constellation of starry-eyed wanderers, Gohamoo emerged as a whisper in the bustling streets of metropolitan life. We began as a small collective of history enthusiasts, architectural admirers, and cultural connoisseurs who shared one passionate belief: that every cobblestone tells a tale, every building harbors secrets, and every neighborhood breathes with its own distinct rhythm.

What started as informal gatherings of friends exploring hidden urban gems has blossomed into a vibrant community of dedicated storytellers. Our name—Gohamoo—draws inspiration from "going" and "harmony," reflecting our commitment to creating harmonious journeys through urban landscapes that resonate on a personal level.

Our Mission & Purpose

We exist to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary, peeling back the layers of familiarity to reveal the magic hiding in plain sight. Each Gohamoo tour is crafted as a living narrative—where streets become chapters, landmarks transform into characters, and city sounds compose the soundtrack of your personal urban adventure.

Unlike the stale, fact-reciting tours of yesterday, we weave immersive experiences that dance between historical accuracy and storytelling artistry. We believe a truly memorable city tour should leave you not just informed, but transformed—seeing your surroundings through newly calibrated eyes.

The Gohamoo Difference

Our guides aren't mere information dispensers—they're passionate urban interpreters who breathe life into every corner they illuminate. Each has undergone a rigorous alchemical process, combining deep local knowledge with theatrical flair and genuine human connection.

Our small groups allow for personalization, spontaneous detours, and the kind of authentic exchanges that large crowds simply cannot accommodate. Whether you're a solo traveler, a curious couple, or a family seeking shared discoveries, we tailor each expedition to your pace and interests.

From dawn-kissed architectural walks to moonlit mythology tours, from culinary expeditions through aromatic marketplaces to artistic journeys through gallery districts—we've crafted each experience to reveal a different facet of the city's multidimensional personality.
