Experience real Kyoto culture with a Maiko and Geisha performance in heart of Gion.
On this small-group cultural experience in Gion, you will get a sense of Kyoto's cultural heritage and the lifestyle of Maiko (an apprentice Geisha of Kyoto) and Geisha (we call them Geiko in Kyoto) by meeting them in person, and learn the rich history of renown Geisha district (Kagai). We will take you to an exclusive private house and you will be welcomed by Maiko and Geiko with light refreshment to enjoy their amazing live performance.
Get the real Kyoto Maiko experience with us! You will get to see an authentic Japanese tradition that has been going on for hundreds of years.

Our Meiko and Geiko were fantastic. They were charming, funny and very talented. The dance our Meiko did was mesmerizing. It reminded us of Hula with the hands and body language telling much of the story. Our guide Saki was very cordial and fun to be with.

This was the highlight of our trip to Kyoto. It was a very relaxed encounter that included a Q&A session.

Fantastic experience with Maiko and Geiko. We go to watch dance with music accompaniment and tea mixing. The best part was that we could ask any questions that we wanted. It was a fascinating to learn more about their world.
The only bad thing was that the Gion Tour was a bit odd. The tour guide gave us very little education about the things that we were seeing and most of the time was spent standing around while were supposed to be running around taking photos. It seemed that the guide was supposed to take us from the starting point to the destination of meeting Maiko and Geiko and maybe thought that they were not giving us a tour? I suggest giving the "tour guides" a script so that we could learn more about the Gion area.

One of, if not the most, interesting, informative, unique and coolest activities of any vacation we've taken. A highlight of our trip to Japan.

Chikako guided us through a visit to a tea house. Talented geiko and maiko provided us with tea and performances. Small group experience was a lovely retreat from busy Kyoto. Chikako made sure the experience was good for all attendees.

We enjoyed the experience very much. It was very nice to be able to meet a geisha in real life, ask questions, and experience a tea ceremony and a song/dance show.
