Very well organised tour, met in hotel by very friendly staff and taken to the Maiko performance. Was a good performance with a good overview of different cultural activities (Tea Ceremony, Plays etc.) but was definitely designed for tourists. Bit of a shame that everyone was taking photos and videos which distracted from the show which is probably our only criticism of the tour.
Then followed by a very good walking tour through Gion learning lots of information about the district, before having a delicious dinner. Highly recommend taking this tour if in Kyoto
