The same problem when I'm running it from virtualenv.

Found what was the problem, I've created a file named google.py from where I was execute the code and the Google API used it.

@avivco94 I just tried in a clean venv without any issue. Is it possible your venv was contaminated by a previous install?

mkdir test
cd test
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install google-cloud-vision
python3 -c "from google.cloud import vision; print(vision.__name__)"

@avivco94 Can you please report the libraries installed in your environment (e.g., via pip freeze).
