母と娘のために

本当に素晴らしいものでした。お手頃価格ですが、決して内容が雑というわけではなく、舞妓さんのふく那さんがとても優しく美しく。。貴重な体験が出来ました。また違うプランでお邪魔したいと家族で話しています。

本当にお綺麗でした。踊りも素敵でした。

We had such a good time! Maiko performance was nice, and we enjoyed playing the game and talking to the her. Glad they were able to provide vegan dinner (minus tempura).

舞妓さんと一緒に体験プラン舞鑑賞・記念撮影・お座敷遊び・食事付きなど選べる6プラン by 日本文化体験庵an

おぼこいぃ～♪

Reviewed by: エチゴヤ

舞妓さんは宮川町堀八重(お茶屋兼置屋)の”ふく友梨”さんが来てくれて、昼食の仕出し弁当を食べながら”ホンモノ”の舞妓さんと楽しいひと時をすごさせて貰いました。
華麗な装いで、たおやかな舞を二曲も（今回は「京の四季」と「祇園小唄」）披露してもらえて、舞妓さんに関する質問にも答えてもらえたり・・・全員ではないですがお茶屋遊び（こんぴら舟々）でお大尽気分を味わえたり？・・・それに撮影フリーですし、おまけに2ショットまで撮ってもらえちゃいます～！
京都に来たらコレでしょッ！！・・・ってくらい初めてって方にも敷居の低いイベントなので皆さんも是非ぃ～～♪

最後に：たまに見かけるなんちゃって舞妓と違ってホンモノの舞妓さんは行儀作法からして厳しく指導されてるので、とても10代とは思えぬほどに佇まいからして雰囲気が違いますよ！

舞妓初年生なので紅は下紅のみ+花簪（かんざし）にびらびらが垂れてます
扇子を使う「京の四季」
定番とも言える「祇園小唄」
舞妓さんの特徴でもある”だらりの帯”

Kyoto Gion Geisha District Evening Walking Tour with English-Speaking Guide

Mo Mo is the best!

Reviewed by: Mike D

We really enjoyed learning from Mo Mo about the history of Gion and it's culture. The group was big but we had no problem hearing and staying together. All questions were answered and we all were given plenty of exposure to the shrines and the sights on the tour.

Kyoto Private Maiko Entertainment with Tea Ceremony & Photo Op

Unforgettable experience

Reviewed by: Sue Shepherd

This was a truly special experience with a charming maiko who spoke good English (as did the owner). We were expecting to be in a group but found there was just the two of us. What a treat. She danced for us, made matcha tea and then chatted to us. She was very generous in letting us ask anything and take as many photos as we wanted. Highly recommend.

Best Amazing Experience

Reviewed by: Rosaleen

It was an amazing experience and an absolute must do while visiting Japan.. There were only 4 couples in the room with excellent girls who interpreted for us and the maiko, who spent quite a long time at each table after her performance etc. .We learned a lot about the tradition. Lots of lovely food and drink served. Fantastic evening- best ever.

舞妓はぁ～～ん♪

Reviewed by: エチゴヤ

舞妓さんは宮川町”駒屋”の『とし菜実』さんでした～！
昨年11月にお見世出し（舞妓デビュー）した舞妓初年生で・・・おぼこい、おぼこいぃ～♪ ^ ^
お茶のお点前もまごついてるとちゃんと席まで来て教えて貰えましたし、舞も定番の「祇園小唄」と扇子を使った「もみじの橋」←（やや自信なし）の2曲をしっとりと魅させて貰いました～。
Q&Aにもしっかりと答えて貰えますし、写真撮影時にはポーズのリクエストにも応えて貰えたりと非常にコストパフォーマンスが良いので・・・ちょっと敷居が高いんじゃ？な～んて思ってるそこの貴方（女）にもお薦めです～。

舞妓変身体験スタジオ撮影・散策プラン本格メイク＋本絹の手刺繍＆手縫い着物着用＜京都市／清水寺＞by 舞妓変身スタジオ四季

母孝行できました！

Reviewed by: nu_

母と娘2人の、3人で体験しました。
散策プランをお願いしていたので、スタジオ撮影と散策とを楽しむことができました。

八坂の塔が見えるスポットが近いので、個人での撮影も満喫できてとても良かったです。

オプションで料金がかさむ件は、口コミで確認しておいてよかったです。
「つけまつげはつけますか？」とメイク中に言われますが、偶々忘れていらしたのか、料金の説明が無かったです。有料です。

カツラは、見栄えだけでなく固定感からも半カツラがよいなと思いました。
こちらもオプション料金がかかりますが、はじめにきちんと説明いただけました。
お着物の着付けも上手で、苦しさは全く無かったです。

撮影もポージング指示があり、母も不安なく楽しんでいました^ ^

料金は高いですが、技術とロケーションを考えると妥当でした。
よい思い出をありがとうございました。

We had perfect weather and a wonderful, friendly guide. The walk is long enough to see it all but short enough not to tire. Loved all the facts about Geiko-san and Meiko-san. We were lucky enough to see a Meiko-san. This has been the highlight of my trip to Japan.

Kyoto Gion Geisha District Evening Walking Tour with English-Speaking Guide

An average tour

Reviewed by: Irit

The tour was ok. It gave some information and took us through nice streets. It taught us a bit about the meaning of Geisha in the Japanese world. However it was not interesting enough to justify two hours of tour. We saw some relevant houses from outside which opened our eyes to realize what these houses are but it felt as if we are avoiding on purpose encountering the Gaishas themselves.
All in all it was not enthusiastic experience.

A Special Experience

Reviewed by: Daniel

Friendly staff, with very good English speaking assistant. Made welcome right away. It is a small scale private event. Dinner dishes were excellent and varied. The show itself was authentic, nice to learn more details about this art and culture including via direct conversation with the performing Maiko. A great way to round off a memorable stay in Kyoto.

Summertime Riverside Dinner in Kyoto with Maiko at Momijiya (2024/7/1～9/30)

Lovely location, outstanding service, mesmerizing Maiko dancers

Reviewed by: jewon310

We missed the shuttle bus so taking a taxi was our only option. The Hotel Monterey Kyoto front desk was so kind and willing; she called the cab and informed the taxi driver where to drop us off which saved us a lot of time. The shuttle from the restaurant came out and met us about a mile away as the roads get narrow and difficult to find for drivers unfamiliar with that area. The cab fare came out to be about $35-40 from the Hotel (which was less than what I expected). I highly recommend catching the shuttle service on time (be there early as they will leave exactly on time!)-- not only it's more comfortable having someone drive you to the restaurant, but it will save you time and money.

The restaurant is located in a very secluded and quiet area, completely surrounded by nature. They will greet and walk you to your designated table. The guiding lights in the complete dark woods make the ambience more beautiful. All meals will come out in your eating pace... which is important because I eat pretty slow and sometimes course meals rush you to hurry up and eat. I wasn't sure how to eat fish properly (whether I was supposed to eat the whole entire fish or leave the head or tail), so the older lady came over and removed all the bones for me. Service was fantastic.

There were two Maikos that night-- both Maikos came around, very willing to take pictures and answer questions/ conversate with you. When they start their dancing, I couldn't help but to stare in awe. They look like walking dolls. They also had goodies before the show (i.e a fan, canvas bag, etc). It was a pleasant experience. I highly recommend this tour. I want to do this again if I travel back to Kyoto in near future.

Summertime Riverside Dinner in Kyoto with Maiko at Momijiya (2024/7/1～9/30)

Magical Evening

Reviewed by: Phyllis Viana

From the drive out of Kyoto Center up the cool hills past traditional tiled roofed houses, to our evening end with our gracious hosts smiling behind us as we walked back over the rope footbridge with the twinkling Japanese lanterns lighting the lush green river - A Magical Evening indeed.
Arriving at sunset, you see the beauty of the hot spring resort with our tables overlooking the river and mountain forest. We ordered the snow course (full- larger Kayseki) dinner. Traditional hosts (who speak only a little English) took us to our low tables set with course 1, gift Japanese fans and menu's in English. Sake and beer is additional. We had 2 Maiko's that evening, each separately visited all the tables to take pictures. (they speak Japanese, but can answer a little of English questions) Food was fresh, delicious and so artistically presented course by course. The beautiful dance & musical entertainment was lovely in the intimate setting. Each group had their own tables and the room is not too large. Splurge and treat yourself to this special experience.
