一つ、残念だったのは、玄関〜室内が埃っぽかったことです。気持ちが少し下がりました。

Kyoto Maiko Entertainment with All-You-Can-Drink Full Course Dinner & Photo Op
Dinner with Maiko
Reviewed by: Min
Highly recommended. We were warmly welcomed and it was really fun having dinner with Maiko. We were able to watch her beautiful dance, play games with her, and ask her any questions if you want to know. I had a fantastic night. The Kaiseki traditional Japanese food was delicious. Whole program was well organised. Two Japanese Interpreters spoke good English. I can’t wait to go again.

We had a good time with Maiko Tamochiye. She was very sweet and could speak english too. It was fun getting to know her. She was fairly new to being a Maiko, which added novelty to the whole experience.

Kyoto Private Maiko Entertainment with Tea Ceremony & Photo Op
Kyoto Hospitality not to be missed.
Reviewed by: Nicole
This experience was Kyoto culture and hospitality at its finest. Everyone we met went above and beyond from the moment we arrived. As at all tea houses, guests are required to remove their shoes, but I had a broken foot and was not allowed to walk without my walking boot. The tea house mother kindly accommodated by finding a bag to tie over the boot. We enjoyed watching Maiko perform the traditional tea ceremony while an interpreter explained the process. We learned the proper way to enjoy the tea as well. After a wonderful dance we were given time for a question and answer session with Maiko followed by a photo opp. Maiko even came outside for photos need the tea house door. She was absolutely a pleasure to spend the afternoon with as was the interpreter. Highly recommended. Tip: the directions given on Veltra are quite accurate, but the door is unmarked (or at least unmarked by English). Just find the door by location and go through the curtain.

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
舞妓さん可愛かったです！
Reviewed by: さいとう
この日の参加者は12～15人ほどで、海外の方や舞妓ファンの方が中心でした。
舞妓さんは宮川町から千賀明(ちかさや)さんという可愛らしい方で、お話をされるときは参加者ひとりひとりと目を合わせながら丁寧にお答えされてました。
お手前体験では、まず千賀明さんが抹茶をたて、それを係りの人が参加者に説明するかんじ。茶道特有の堅苦しい雰囲気は一切なく、みなさん泡がたたない～と言いながらワイワイ抹茶をたててました。
お茶屋あそびの体験もあり、これは希望者(２名ほど)が前で千賀明さんと金比羅ふねふねというお茶屋遊びをされました。舞妓さんが盛り上げ上手なので、どうやっても楽しくなりました(笑)
１時間の体験でしたが、盛り上げ上手な千賀明さんのおかげでとても楽しい時間になりました。ぜひまた京都へ行くことがあれば参加したいです！

Our first Maiko interaction experience
Reviewed by: Lili
This package had it all; meet a real maiko in person, enjoyed the traditional Maiko dance, have a conversation and played games with one, and even took pictures with one! It was a superb and welcoming experience! Really enjoyed the food and entertainment. Would most definitely recommend my friends if they want to have similar experience! Would suggest the restaurant to have a vegetarian menu for my vegan friends.

Outstanding experience!
Reviewed by: Rachel Tuhro
Meeting the Maiko and speaking with the house mother was by far the most memorable part of our trip!
We enjoyed a Japanese Tea Ceremony had some small snacks and were entertained by a traditional recorded dance. Our Maiko was so lovely, she talked with us and spoke English very well. We were able to ask her a ton of personal questions and she was more than willing to answer all of them. The house mother was so friendly and accommodating and even gave us small gifts as souvenirs after our visit.
This is a MUST!!!

Thank you for your feedback.
I am sorry about that, but some time ago, others felt heat because of our reception staff did not introduce our products to them.
So we need to introduce our many options, as you will realize.
Thank you for your understanding.

Geshia Experience
Reviewed by: smartie
We arrived early to the salon and they were happy to fit me in early. We booked a full package through Veltra, however before it began we were told of an extra cost then asked about all other items that could be done. If I had know about these extra items I would have organized extra funds. Outdoor photo's are an extra 1000 yen but you have to have all six done that way so its actually 6000 yen. All the makeup artists speak very little if any English so it was hard to understand what they wanted me to do at the beginning. Very professional, helpful girls and I will recommend this salon and the experience to everyone.
Dear smartie
Thank you for your comment.
First of all, our staff are not good at speaking in English.
We would like to study English more and more.
I am sorry about that.
If you have a chance, please visit to our shop again.

I have always been fascinated with Japanese culture, and geishas are so very legit-Jap. This tour was an eye-opener not only because i learned more about Japan, but more importantly because i now have a higher level of praise and respect for women to choose to live the life of a geisha.
This is definitely a must-do when you're in Kansai area.

This was our first time having tea with Maiko-san, and we didn't know what to expect. We were blow away by this experience! We thoroughly enjoyed having tea with our hostess, and the location was everything we'd hoped to find in a traditional Japanese tea house. Tomitsuyu-san was incredibly friendly and polite, and spoke flawless English too! We had a wonderful time and learned so much about the geisha as well as traditional culture in Kyoto. I absolutely recommend this activity to anyone who wants a traditional Japanese experience!

It was 34 people in our group. The waiter and waitress were so busy catering to two groups of Japanese customers (about 20 people), they did not offer for us to order any drink. Our group was trying to get their attention to order some beverages but they did not walk over to us. The show itself is ok but I would not recommend this event.

Going into this experience, I had no clue what a Maiko was and just thought it would a show with someone that just dresses up like a Geisha. This experience taught me a lot about the whole Geisha/Maiko profession and has made me more interested in older Japanese culture. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the food was delicious, and the Maiko was gorgeous and great to hang out with.
