Kyoto Maiko Makeover and Samurai Dress-up Experience with Optional Stroll Plan

Aussie Geishas

Reviewed by: Michelle Bilson, 2019/10/20

We had a great time!
After getting stranded due to the typhoon and not being able to get to Kyoto for the day of our booking, the site was extremely flexible and allowed us to move our appointment several times to ensure we could enjoy our booking.

There were 3 of us and we had a lovely time with lots of fun choosing kimono colours and the like. Then we went fir a walk around the local area, how did they do it on those cobblestones with the beautiful but heavy outfits!

Great for a bit of fun and also to understand for a moment what the geisha’s lives were like.
Thankyou from all 3 of us. Great photos too!

Kyoto Maiko Makeover and Samurai Dress-up Experience with Optional Stroll Plan

Great experience

Reviewed by: Clare, 2019/10/06

Very enjoyable being made over as a maiko and the stroll plan meant we could take photos by the Kyoto pagoda in beautiful costume as it is close to the studio. Tourists were taking our picture!

The photo shoot was great fun as well as professional and the pics turned out great - they had them ready when we got back from the walk.

Staff were lovely, make up was very well done and the kimonos were gorgeous.

When we called them saying we were struggling to find which building the studio was, they kindly came and found us, which was incredibly helpful of them.

They took cash and card when we were paying the little extra for our Japanese socks

Kyoto Maiko Makeover and Samurai Dress-up Experience with Optional Stroll Plan

Fun Maiko makeover in Kyoto

Reviewed by: MT New York , 2019/09/05

My mom and I had a really fun time getting a Maiko makeover. The make up and kimono quality were great, and the professional photos turned out pretty good. We walked around for a while in our costumes and were swarmed by tourists taking photos.

The only thing is that you can’t get the file copy of the professional photos - it is an additional charge for a CD-ROM, usb or email is not available. They also charge extra for a number of things - different wig, eyelashes, socks, different photo studio photos etc (although these are optional).

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

舞妓はぁ~ん♪

Reviewed by: エチゴヤ, 2019/08/27

まだまだ夏の暑さを感じる中・・・動く伝統工芸品(美術品か?)とも呼ばれる舞妓さんに逢ってきました~。
京都に舞妓さんの居る街は五つ(祇園甲部・祇園東・先斗町・宮川町・上七軒)ありますが、今回は祇園東・叶家の叶久(かのひさ)さんでした。

お客さんも中国語圏・英語圏&日本語圏(笑)と多彩でした。
司会は日本語と英語なのですが、同テーブルの上海からって言う中学生くらいの女の子が日本語が流暢で、グループの中国人ガイドさん?そっちのけで司会の方や叶久さんの返答を皆に通訳してました~・・・ビックリ!
でも、外国の方たちにも日本語や伝統文化に興味や親しみを感じてもらえるって嬉しい事ですよね!?

食事をしながら踊りも二曲舞ってもらえて、舞妓さんの説明やQ&Aやお座敷遊び(金毘羅舟々)や、そしてそして2ショットはもちろん他の方の迷惑に無らなければ写真撮影も終始OKと至れり尽くせりです。
夜にこう言うアクティビティーは多いのですが昼ってのは少ないので、初めてって方にも敷居が低く且つリーズナブルなこのアクティビティーはお薦めで~す♪ ^ ^

  • 昨年10月のお見世出し(舞妓デビュー)から一年未満なので口紅が下唇だけです。

  • 舞妓さんの象徴でもある”だらりの帯”下部にはお世話になってる置屋の家紋が入ってます。

  • 花簪(はなかんざし)は毎月変わります、八月は薄(すすき)です。

THE京都の雰囲気を楽しむ夜

Reviewed by: としひろ, 2019/08/20

京都と言えば舞妓さん
ただ、一言さんお断りのお店が多いイメージが強く、
どこかで見れれば…と探しているときに、
こちらのツアーを見つけました!

価格は少し躊躇する額だったものの、お座敷で舞妓さんと食事をすることを考えれば半額以下ぐらいか?と、なり申し込みました!

一番驚いたのは、舞妓さんとの距離の近さ!
一緒に写真を撮ってもらえたり、お話しできたり
お客さんが少なかったことも関係あるかもしれませんが、1組1組とゆっくり時間を取ってお話してくださいました!
大満足の☆5つです!

Kyoto Maiko Makeover and Samurai Dress-up Experience with Optional Stroll Plan

Fantastic experience with a high quality service

Reviewed by: Marta, 2019/08/16

Fantastic service, with high quality make up, impressive premises, clean and modern but in an old building renovated, wonderful kimonos and photography of excellent quality.
Very good products to remove the make up. Kimonos at the higher level!
I would recommend it 100%. Just one advice, be in advance because the location is not so easy to find, even if it is one of the more authentic places in Kyoto.
Perfect service at the level of my high expectations, thanks!

  • Final result after more than one hour

Maiko Dance with Dinner & Kyoto Night View Tour by KYOTO Sightseeing“OKOSHI”Bus

Pleasent affordable geisha experience

Reviewed by: Leslie Arcin , 2019/08/11

Very convient pick up/drop off spot! Affordable Maiko experience, we chose this experience over parlor games/tea time because we wouldn’t know what to ask a geisha or if language barrier would be a problem. My sister and I enjoyed the performance very much. When we did it it was a small group and the tour leader was the best. One thing to take note is the experience is probably enhanced if you do speak Japanese or have someone that does so you can compliment the performance or ask the Maiko questions, but we knew this going in. Also the bus tour around town showing shrines and temples isn’t necessarily scenic, but rather a quick pass by of all the places (very easy to miss some spots if you don’t turn around quick enough) , but the view at the top of Osaka is worthwhile

【芸妓さんと舞妓さん/岡崎庵 催行】舞鑑賞+お座敷遊び 舞妓文化に触れる貴重な体験を<混載/撮影自由/東山駅>

敷居が高いイメージがありましたが、とても楽しめました! お食事も京都らしい内容でとても満足です。舞妓さんも気さくに話してくださり写真も一緒に撮影してもらい良い思い出になりました!

Reviewed by: のぐすけ, 2019/08/09

京都もいろいろ行きましたが、舞妓さんを体験してみたく思い予約しました。
料亭や旅館でも同様のサービスはあったのですが、こちらの岡崎庵さんは、かしこまった雰囲気でもなく初めてでも安心できました。

お料理も京都らしい食材や内容でボリュームもありとても満足できました。
もともと岡崎庵さんは、映画や小説にもなった有名な方の個人の邸宅だったらしく、外観とは違う独特な雰囲気が印象的でした。普段は結婚式などの貸切利用以外は解放はしていないようです。神戸の異人館みたいな感じです。

舞妓さんの舞が行われる場所は、別フロアにある能舞台でした。総檜造りらしく非日常感が素晴らしかったです。写真撮影もOkですし、舞妓文化についての説明が司会者さんからもあり分かりやすかったです。外国人観光客のための通訳もあるようです。

舞を堪能したあとは舞妓さんと一緒に撮影をしたり、かんざしやお着物についての質問コーナーなどもあり、とても楽しい時間でした。

舞妓さんや芸͡妓さん遊びはとても高いイメージがありましたが、この内容なら
とても価値あると思います。

檜舞台のある場所は、履物を脱がなければいけないようです。
場所は地下鉄東西線の東山駅から歩いて10分程度ですが、平安神宮の参道を通て行くので退屈しません。

Kyoto Private Maiko Entertainment with Tea Ceremony & Photo Op

Memorable Experience in Kyoto

Reviewed by: Deb, 2019/07/21

Our multi-generational family (from age 12 to 79) thoroughly enjoyed this experience. The kids were warmly welcomed and included. The Maiko (I think her name was Tomichie) was magnificent and extraordinary, and the mother of the house did a wonderful job explaining everything we experienced. Taking photos was welcomed and encouraged. Conversation time with the Maiko was pleasant and easy (her English was excellent). The length of time was perfect for our group; we were able to enjoy the experiences and the kids didn't get restless. I highly recommends this experience.

京都高雄 もみぢ家 川床ディナープラン 納涼川床料理+舞妓さんの京舞鑑賞日あり(2024/7/1~2024/9/22)<川床席確約/送迎あり/高雄>

趣あるぅ~~♪

Reviewed by: エチゴヤ, 2019/07/18

当日は生憎の雨で少し涼しく感じられる天気でしたが、抜群のロケーションのなか川床で美味しい食事(すき焼きを選択)を頂きながら舞妓さんの舞やお話しでひととき現実逃避してきました~。(笑) もちろん写真撮影もバッチリいけますよ!

聞いたところ5つある川床のうち4つ入客あった様で舞妓さんも、上七軒から梅たえさん・ふみ幸さん 宮川町から菊弥江さん・叶季(かなすえ)さんの4名が来てくれてました。(時間の都合でふみ幸さんとはお目にかかれませんでしたが・・・悲)


なにより、スタッフのみなさんの気づかい心くばりも嬉しかったですね~・・・ここ、お薦めですよ!奥様~♪(笑)

  • 宮川町 花ふさの菊弥江(きくやえ)さん、年長さんなので白衿です。

  • 花簪(はなかんざし)も年長さんはひとつひとつが大ぶりです。

  • 年長舞妓さんは祇園祭期間中は普段の”おふく”から”勝山”に髷(まげ)が変わります。脇の渦巻き状のモノは梵天と言います。

  • 上七軒 梅乃の梅たえ(うめたえ)さん、来年は勝山どす~♪だそうです。年少さんなので花簪のひとつひとつが小ぶりです。

  • 舞妓さんと言えば”だらりの帯”・・・帯の下部にはお世話になってる置屋の家紋が入ってます。

  • 宮川町 川久の叶季(かなすえ)さん。今年6月にお見世出し(舞妓デビュー)したばかりで初々しさ全開です!^ ^

  • 舞妓初年生なので紅が下唇だけです。普段は花簪からぶらぶらと垂れ下がる飾りを付けますがこれも初年生だけです。

Kyoto Private Maiko Entertainment with Tea Ceremony & Photo Op

Welcome to Kyoto~

Reviewed by: lisa k, 2019/07/06

We booked this on our first day in Kyoto as our way of immersing in the culture. Not one thing about it disappointed. It was long enough to feel we got the experience but short enough to keep our attention which was not easy since we were all jet lagged from the east coast of the US. We enjoyed our time with our hostesses and appreciated the candor in answering all of our questions and being willing to have pictures taken with us. We also were fascinated by the traditional tea ceremony performed. Very nice way to start the week!
