Embark on a journey through Kyoto’s renowned Gion district and gain knowledge about the enigmatic geisha traditions prevalent in the region. Your local guide will impart insights about these traditions from a unique insider viewpoint on Geisha culture. Concurrently, you’ll traverse the picturesque lanes, temples, shrines, and shops of Gion, providing a holistic understanding of historic Kyoto.

In the primary segment, we’ll stroll through Gion and delve into discussing the enduring traditions, their way of life and ancestry. The latter segment will entail an encounter with a trainee geisha, known as a Maiko. Initially, we will converse with her and inquiry her. Moreover, we’ll observe her dance, whilst also sharing a cup of tea, lunch, or dinner.
