  1. 5/5Nice Uber alternative in Japan

    Used the Go app throughout the Mount Fuji area (kawaguchiko). Sleek and easy design. You can use your foreign credit card too! Only 2 areas of improvement are seeing the route while you ride (it only shows your location) and having more drivers available. Sometimes no drivers are working in the area and you can’t get a ride. Still better than Uber which doesn’t operate in some non-urban areas. If Go is a local company, would be nice to support them and their drivers too.

  2. 2/5BEWARE - if you’re overcharged GO Will do nothing

    If you are wrongly charged you will not get your money back! I was overcharged 2,240 Yen because my driver took the wrong route and drove an extra 4km to get me to my destination. I’ve been trying to get GO to refund me this difference via email, because the app simply doesn’t allow you to dispute fares. I shared all relevant evidence, but GO simply refuses to review the GPS data to validate that the driver did indeed drive extra distance that was unwarranted. They tell me that this is just how their ride share fare works. When the app works it’s great. When you get into dispute territory, you’re out of luck. Better just use Uber since they won’t scam you out of your money when it’s the driver’s mistake.

  3. 5/5Easy to use and affordable!

    Taxi Go was a godsend for my wife and myself. We used it frequently in Kyoto, where taxis are everywhere! Super easy to use app and it worked with my Apple Credit Card which I liked (No foreign transaction fees). Getting from one temple/shrine to another can get tiring real quick in Kyoto. Taking a taxi makes things much less physically demanding and allows you to enjoy more of your day. We found the cost to be more than reasonable. Would recommend to ANYONE visiting Kyoto let alone Japan. Thank you!

  4. 2/5Estimated arrival time always wrong

    Always need to double or triple the estimated arrival time to get an accurate prediction. Currently been waiting 10 min for a predicted 3 min arrival and the driver is still a far away… this kind of thing happens almost every time. This makes it hard to get to appointments on time. On top of which they charge a 400 service fee, a 200 yen international users’ fee and then ask you to tip the driver at least another 200 yen. So even on a 1000 yen ride you end up paying an extra 800 yen. Also defaults to selecting a large van, even though this is more expensive and usually has an even longer predicted wait time, so you have to be careful to choose taxi each time.

  5. 4/5Drivers are great, app can improve

    Review from an Asian American family. Every driver both from Premium and regular were great drivers, service providers and go out of their way to help you. Most have at least basic levels of English proficiency but I would still recommend use of a translator app for more complex navigation instructions to driver. App is a little bit lacking when compared to popular US apps in the sense that the app itself doesn’t show time left to destination once your ride has started or recommended route to destination.

  4. 2/5

    Sometimes it works well. However, around 20% of my rides couldn't be booked because the app kept saying "Current payment method is not available". I tried two different cards with the same result. The biggest issue is that the app doesn't offer an option to pay in cash or directly to the driver by card. Sometimes you can just catch a taxi on the street, but it's really frustrating when this happens on your way to the train station or the

    There is no way to disable all other notifications (coupons, promos, etc) without disabling essential ones (related to riding)
