5.00The opportunity to ask questions directly to both the maiko and a geiko was delightful! Our guide was helpful in pointing out some things on the street in Gion before we met them that contextualized our conversation. Many thanks to Yuko for her demonstration of sensitivity and respect so that we could get the most out of our experience. A highly memorable experience for all of us!

5.00Momo-san was very nice, professional and knowledgeable about the history of the Gion district and maikos/geikos. The tea ceremony was such a unique and special experience that can only be enjoyed through this tour! Meeting the Geiko and Meiko was a pleasure and were open to answering any and all questions we had about their professions and lives. A must do experience!!

5.00We learned so much about the modern geisha. Tomonika (hope I spelled that right) was an excellent tour guide and a good interpreter. The tea ceremony and dances were on my bucket list and never dreamed that I would be able to do it in such a small private party. Thank you for the opportunity!

5.00The tour was top notch. We went to a Tea house. We were given all the does and don’ts of proper behavior. We experienced a tea ceremony, enjoyed dancing from a Maiko, and instrument playing by the owner, a former Geiko. Our tour guide was the perfect Japanese local guide. This is the tour to do if you want something that is authentic.

The Guide makes all the difference

5.00The guide (Yoshi) was fantastic! We met on time and she shared so much about growing up in Kyoto and the experience she had with the tradition of the Geisha. Her personal experiences made this extra special. The Maiko who served our tea and danced for us was so kind and we were lucky as she was one of the few who was fluent in English. She was also the same one that was on the posters in the area. Just an amazing and educational experience, I would highly recommend it.
