Shrines, shadows, and old Kyoto charm—step into the quiet magic of the city after dark. Evening is when Kyoto truly begins to glow. As the lanterns flicker to life and the crowds fade away, Gion transforms into something timeless. This gentle walking tour is your chance to soak up the after-dark atmosphere of Kyoto’s most historic district—with a local guide who knows all the quiet corners.
We begin at Yasaka Shrine, where golden lanterns sway softly and the scent of incense drifts on the night air. The bustle of the day fades, replaced by a sacred calm.
If we’re lucky, we might spot a maiko or geiko on her way to an appointment. But this isn’t a celebrity chase—we’ll share proper etiquette for respectful encounters. Let's appreciate this world with the dignity it deserves.

⛩️ Yasaka Shrine in the evening glow

5.00The Gion Night Walking Tour was absolutely magical ! So glad we chose to do this at night and were fortunate enough to get Kevin from Canada as our guide who was extremely knowable and made it fun as well. The tour went at a good pace and we didn’t feel rushed allowing us to absorb the atmosphere and we even spotted a Maiko. Highly recommend this tour and hopefully you get Kevin from Canada as he was terrific !
Incredible Tour

5.00Kevin was an AMAZING guide! This was hands down the best tour we’ve done yet in Japan. Super insightful and answered all of our questions. It was also so nice to be in such a small group. We saw other tours that were huge. We got an intimate and informative experience for a reasonable price. Highly recommend!
