Take a tour of Kyoto's famous Gion district and learn all about the mysterious geisha traditions of the area. Your local guide will tell you about the traditions from an insider perspective about Geisha culture. At the same time you'll explore Gion's beautiful streets, temples, shrines, and shops, for a comprehensive overview of historic Kyoto. The mysterious world of Geisha can seem exclusive and challenging to discover, but on my experience
･In the first half we will walk in Gion and discuss the living traditions, their lifestyle and history.
･In the second half we will meet an apprentice geisha, Maiko. First we will talk with and ask her questions. Also we will watch her dancing, having one of these, a cup of tea or lunch or dinner together.
*Picture and filming of Geisha is fine but not allowed to post it in public.

5.00Akari was so kind and had a beautiful heart! She was a wonderful tour guide. We had the most amazing opportunity to meet a Maiko and see the most beautiful performance. She was an outstanding performer and such a kind person. This is the best tour you can take in Kyoto!

5.00Our guide was terrific. She is local and had a great knowledge and comfortable way of expressing and explaining. We (9 of us in the group) learned a lot about the Gion district and Geisha and Meiko life. Lunch was terrific and then a wonderful private performance by a Meiko. And the opportunity to ask her questions. This was truly an excellent tour. Worth every yen!
Great tour, dinner and show!

5.00This was an excellent tour! Our guide was superb, was incredibly knowledgeable about the Geisha culture and Gion district. We very much enjoyed the walking tour learning about the area and culture. The lunch was very traditional, good food, the floor sitting is harder for larger size American like me, but we managed! The Meiko presentation was beautiful and we enjoyed the q & a learning about her life. This tour is very enjoyable, we highly recommend!
Great guide made a chilly bike ride very good

5.00Had a really good time! Our guide (originally from Utah) had lived in Japan for 26 years, and had a lot of really good observations on culture, as well as being very knowledgeable about the history and importance of the places we visited. And, a good sense of humor. The only thing sub-optimal was the weather (it was a bit chilly and drizzly) but our guide's warm and sunny personality counteracted that nicely. We definitely stopped and toured inside the sights, of which the Tenryū-ji temple (where no photos are allowed) was the highlight.
Amazing opportunity to learn about Geisha culture

5.00Wow this was such a wonderful experience! We had booked the Gion walking tour and meeting a Geisha. Since it was raining hard we decided to skip the walking tour and just join for the Geisha meeting. This was my favourite experience of our whole trip! Kenta is a fantastic guide with very good English and he was very helpful and explained all the details about the Geisha tradition. It was a very small group and a great intimate setting in a traditional tea house , where we met the apprentice Geisha. We got a very authentic glimpse into the life of a Geisha and the tough path of becoming one. Thank you Kenta, for this opportunity to learn about Geisha traditions in such a unique way. I can highly recommend this tour!

5.00Our tour guide was very knowledgeable. It was a good walking tour because it enabled us to explore the streets of Gion that we otherwise would have missed. The lunch provided was great. We also were able to meet a Geiko in a much better and respectful setting. We were given time to ask questions and learn from the Geiko. She performed some dances for us which was great. I was choosing between tea making ceremony or this, and I am glad that I went with this. It was a memorable experience. Loved it!
