My Go Go Nihon advisor, Sean, has been an excellent advisor. He has guided me expertly through the application process and answered any questions I had promptly and with full details. He reviewed all aspects of my application package and found a couple of small mistakes I had made and places where I had not explained aspects of my background sufficiently or had not phrased things properly (a testament to how careful a proofreader he is). I think any Go Go Nihon applicant would be fortunate to have Sean for an advisor.

Je recommande Go! Go! Nihon. J'ai fait les cours pour débutant en ligne et j'ai vraiment aimé mon apprentissage que je trouvais bien fait dans l'ensemble. Il y a de la théorie, de la pratique et quelques explications vidéos et résumées parfois. L'accompagnement est vraiment le gros plus de la plateforme! J'ai été accompagné par Nora et Ayumi dans mes démarches. Elles sont claires, rapides et très à l'écoute! Merci à toute l'équipe!
Panna P.
I am very very satisfied and happy, Kristina is very helpful and kind. Thank you for help and services!!
Pavaillon L.
I would like to sincerely thank Pauline and Moko from Go! Go! Nihon for their incredible support throughout my application to a language school in Tokyo.
They were extremely responsive, patient, and helpful, even when I had lots of questions. Thanks to their guidance, I was able to choose a school that suits me perfectly, and they supported me every step of the way from the initial application to preparing for my arrival in Japan.

I highly recommend using Go! Go! Nihon if you're planning to study Japanese in Japan. Their service makes the entire process so much easier and gives you peace of mind.

Thank you again for everything!
Bruce Z.
My wife and I are excited to be attending language school in Tokyo soon and going through GoGoNihon has been nothing but a smooth experience end to end thanks to Kristina who worked with us through the whole process and answered so many of our questions! She helped us make sure all documents we needed were in order, facilitated communication between our language school of choice, and overall helped us stay organized, on track, and updated throughout the application period.

We’re looking forward to our big move and would recommend anyone looking to apply through a guided process to go through GoGoNihon!

GogoNihon made the the entire process very easy and simple. May was my main contact throughout the process, she helped me select a school that tailored to my needs, providing great information on all the different options and was always quick to reply to any of my inquiries.
Darren B.
Go! Go! Nihon has been fantastic to work with. Their team responded quickly to all my questions, always showed a genuine willingness to help, and made the entire application process clear and easy to follow. With my coordinators help, everything so far has gone smoothly and I’m excited to begin my studies in Japan this October!

Maravilhosa, bem explicativa e com profissionais incríveis.
Aleksandra O.
The service that GoGo Nihon and my advisor Reinaldi have provided me has been absolutely exceptional. With their help and guidance, the process of applying to language school in Japan went smooth and I was able to prepare the documentation required in the correct way for it to be accepted by the language school and immigration. Not only did I recieve help with the application process, the team also contacted the language school directly on my behalf concerning matters such as securing housing in Japan. Thanks to GoGo Nihon I was given the opportunity to continue my adventures in the land of the rising sun!

A heartfelt thank you to Reinaldi and the team from GoGo Nihon.

Matthew has been helping me over the past year with quick and clear communication. I don't know how I would go through this process without someone like him guiding me through every step!
Nadia I.
This was such a momental and difficult process made very easy all thanks to my coordinator, Matt.

I’m so thankful I had Matt to guide me through this all and am so excited to start this new journey of my life!!

Yehor D.
I had a great experience with Go Go Nihon, the process of submitting documents was very straightforward, and at every step there was a clear plan of what to do next, which made everything much easier to follow. I always knew exactly which stage I was at. Responses usually came the next day, but that’s completely understandable given the time difference. Overall, I’m very satisfied with the support
Taha A.
Saskia was incredibly helpful at every stage of the application process, even offering me alternative solutions when I was feeling pessimistic. I'm incredibly grateful.
David J.
GoGo Nihon has been an exceptional resource and service for applying to a language school. The paperwork and process are streamlined and communication has been great. It takes out a lot of the headache that would inevitably have been there. Layna has been a great coordinator throughout the entire process, with timely and informative responses. I would highly recommend it because why not use experts who have already gone through what you are planning? And best of all, it's free!
Rose L.
I am very pleased with how Go! Go! Nihon has helped me throughout this whole process of studying to Japan!

To my advisor, Saskia, she has helped me from the start of this adventure with notifying me about the 12 week Japanese course work and certification once you pass the course. To the very end of me preparing to be a full-time student.

I have searched at many companies to help me with studying abroad but Go! Go! Nihon has certainly been the best:)
Pedro Hinojos S.
Very helpful and nice people.
Don F.
Going through GoGo Nihon was simple with the help of my contact Sean.
He was quite prompt and exactly to the point of anything I was missing and descriptive for thing I still needed to accomplish. The process for applying for a Language school was made easy with his help.
Would recommend

Layna is very helpful!
tayLor
Layna has been a great help through the tedious process of applying to school.
Justin K.
The experience working with Go! Go! Nihon was amazingly smooth. All my questions were answered timely and clear. Having someone help with a complicated process was definitely the right choice for me. I don't know how I would have done it alone. Layna is amazing, thank you so much for everything!
Christian G.
Living in Japan has been a dream of mine since I was a child. However, the task of knowing exactly what I needed, communicating and where to start was more than just daunting. With the help of GoGoNihon serving as the "middle man" all these troubles became a breeze. In particular, Ms. Layna really helped to pull me along and showed professionalism and grace, even when I had a silly or redundant question. She has been assisting me for months during this transition and I couldn't be more grateful to her. She and GGN took what felt like a tremendous task and turned it into a pleasant walk.
Daniel G.
May was very helpful throughout the entire process of applying and getting accepted to Akamonkai Japanese Language School (赤門会日本語学校)! Responses were fast, informative, and I was always assured that I could ask any questions at any time! Keep it up GoGoNihon and especially May - thank you!
yohan
GoGoNihon made the application process hassle-free and practically held my hand every step of the way. My advisor, May, was remarkably helpful and patient with me. Sincerely don't know what I would do without them.
Kristína G.
Gret support throughout the whole process for applying to schools 🙂 May was excellent and responses were always quick and informative. Would definitely recommend.
Jordan A.
Incredibly helpful for anyone who wishes to visit and study in Japan. Super friendly and helpful staff who are willing to answer any of your questions, May and Lisa were great to work with!
Alexander Grieser J.
Great people, great service, incredibly helpful. I don't know how I would have organized by year of study in Japan without them.
Asaf S.
A go go nihon foi top d+... A Nina me ajudou muito do inicio ao fim com muita paciencia e sempre muito bem educada comigo... Não tenho que reclamar... Só agrecer eles pelo suporte deles... "QUEM QUISER IR PARA O JAPÃO COMO ESTUDANDE SUPER RECOMENDO"
Maju S.
Simplesmente a melhor assessoria que poderia ter, eu juro que não vão se arrepender, fiquei com medo no começo pela propaganda parecer “bom demais” sabe? Mas no final é melhor ainda, eles ajudam com literalmente TUDO, se não fosse a Go Go Nihon talvez eu nem estaria fazendo esse intercâmbio, obrigada demais por tudo!

Um obrigado especial para a Nina que desde o começo desse processo tava ali comigo! Você é demais!
Klysman (.
Thanks GogoNihon and, specially, Tieme. Amazing support.
Konan
J’ai été accompagné par Go! Go! Nihon pour mon inscription en école de japonais, et je recommande vivement leurs services.
Pauline a été présente à chaque étape, toujours claire, réactive et bienveillante.
Et je tiens aussi à remercier Akane, dont le travail discret en arrière-plan est précieux et mérite d’être salué.
Grâce à cette équipe, je pars sereinement à ISI Kyoto en janvier. Merci infiniment !
Response from the owner:Bonjour, merci pour votre commentaire ! C'est avec plaisir que nous vous aidons dans vos projets d'études au Japon et nous vous souhaitons le meilleur pour vos études à Kyoto!
Aurora De L.
Ringrazio Veronica per avermi aiutato con i documenti e la procedura per ottenere il visto!
Adesso vivo a Tokyo da 4 mesi e mi ricordo quanto ero in ansia per tutti i documenti da inviare. Lei mi ha seguita passo a passo.☺️
Response from the owner:Ciao Aurora, Grazie mille per le tue belle parole! Siamo contenti ti sia trovata bene durante tutto il processo e con la coordinatrice responsabile della tua iscrizione 🙂 Speriamo che i tuoi studi proseguano per il meglio e in bocca al lupo per i tuoi programmi futuri 😄
Teodor-Vicențiu N.
Good service, fast responses to questions, they helped me gather all the necessary documents and choose the appropriate school for my needs. I ended up not going due to personal circumstances but would definitely recommend their service.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your review! We're sorry you weren't able to come in the end, but we were happy to support you through the process.
Giorgia P.
I participated in a three-week study trip in July 2025. I had decided to rely on GoGoNihon because it was my first experience in Japan and I liked having support once I arrived. I am so happy I did, thanks to their organisation I was able to focus on studying and gaining new experiences. The staff is kind, reliable and supportive. A special thanks to Valeria and Jose who accompanied us through the activities: they gave me lots of tips to enjoy the experience and we all had a great time together! They were also always available for anything. I would love to do another trip with them in the future!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your review Giorgia! We're so happy you got to experience Japan for the first time with us. We hope to see you again in the future!
Giovanni C.
Mi trovo a scrivere queste parole dopo ormai i primi tre mesi di questa nuova avventura. Ho aspettato tanto perché ci tenevo a fornire un quadro più completo possibile, sia prima che dopo la partenza.

Fatte le doverose premesse, la prima cosa che da fare a mio avviso è ringraziare Veronica, colei che mi ha sopportato fin dal principio in quest'avventura.
Nonostante i miei mille dubbi, le mille preoccupazioni, le domande quasi certamente identiche a chi è passato prima di me, ha sempre avuto una pazienza infinita fornendomi tutte le informazioni di cui avevo bisogno.

Sin dal primo contatto, seppur semplicemente per avere informazioni su come muovere i primi passi, lo staff si è rivelato sempre disponibile per qualsiasi evenienza. Ammetto che dopo il primo contatto ero ancora incerto su quale scuola volessi frequentare, per cui chiesi consiglio anche da questo punto di vista.

Dopo una prima chiacchierata con Veronica ho deciso di iscrivermi alla ISI Language School di Osaka, e non posso che ringraziarla anche in questo caso, per avermi indirizzato verso una scuola in cui sento di poter dire di aver trovato il mio spazio.

Come detto all'inizio sono passati tre mesi dal mio arrivo in Giappone, e nonostante tutto ancora adesso stento a crederci.
Tutto questo per me sarebbe rimasto solo un sogno nel cassetto, se non fosse stato per GoGoNihon appunto.

Dal mio punto di vista sono stati un sostegno non indifferente, per cui sarò sempre grato.
Se tu che hai avuto la pazienza di leggere fin qui desideri come me visitare il Giappone "dall'interno" e non semplicemente da turista... Contatta lo staff, non te ne pentirai. ❤️
Response from the owner:Ciao Giovanni, Grazie mille per le belle parole spese sul nostro servizio 🙂 Siamo contenti ti sia trovato bene con il nostro supporto e con la coordinatrice che ha seguito la tua iscrizione 😀 Ti auguriamo un in bocca al lupo per lo studio e avventura in Giappone! Buono studio!
João Pedro Broietti P.
Já vinha há algum tempo planejando visitar o japão.
Em algum momento decidi que a visita seria para continuar estudando o idioma em uma das escolas de línguas.
Com a ajuda da Nina e da equipe do Gogo Nihon todo o processo desde a escolha da escola, estadia, auxílio no pedido do visto, tradução de documentos, dentre outros, foi facilitado imensamente. Sem nenhum custo adicional.

O meu visto foi para uma estadia mais longa, o que acabou levando um pouco mais de tempo. Mas valeu a pena.
Response from the owner:Olá João Pedro! Agradecemos sua avaliação e confiança em nosso trabalho! Esperamos que sua estadia e estudos no Japão seja uma ótima experiência! Conte com a nossa ajuda sempre que precisar!
Carlos Zav M.
Me pareció muy bueno el acompañamiento en todo el proceso, sobre todo sencillo
Response from the owner:Hola, Carlos! Nos alegra saber que tu experiencia ha sido positiva. Gracias por compartirla para que otros estudiantes puedan tenerla en cuenta.
Nicolas-Alexis S.
J’ai été très satisfait du support de l’équipe Go! Go! Nihon tout au long des démarches. Pauline et sa collègue Moko ont toujours été réactives, professionnelles et à l’écoute, même pour les questions les plus précises sur la procédure de visa ou l’organisation avant l’entrée à la SNG. Leur accompagnement permet d’être serein à chaque étape. Un grand merci pour leur disponibilité et leur efficacité ! Je recommande vivement leurs services à toute personne souhaitant partir étudier au Japon.
Response from the owner:Bonjour Nicolas-Alexis, merci pour votre commentaire ! C'est avec plaisir que nous vous aidons dans vos projets d'études au Japon.

Who we are

Go! Go! Nihon Live and Study in Japan!

In 2009, after meeting and studying at a Japanese language school together, Davide and John start working on a project that will make the process of living and studying in Japan much easier. The idea for Go! Go! Nihon is born. The service and website is launched with Italian, Swedish, and English language support. There is an immediate positive reception to the service and the first long-term students start the October session that year.
