京都高雄 もみぢ家 秋の川床ランチ ​淡雪のようにとろける森嘉の湯豆腐定食プラン 事前予約(2024/10/1~11/30限定)<川床席確約/送迎あり/高雄>

ピックアップの時間が、間違っていました。

Reviewed by: 橋本三千代

私に送られてきた時間は1040でしたが、紅葉やさんの送迎は11時に来ました。友達は、乗るときに転びケガをしました。
もみじやさんは、ベルトラに11時の訂正を入れたといわれましたが、こちらには、何の変更もありませんでした。ピックアップの時間間違えは最低です。
でも、もみじやさんは、平身低頭、大変よくしてくださいました。ベルトラさんは、どう、お考えですか?

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

NO Services

Reviewed by: Billy Q-Groupleader

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.

穏やかな風景+暖かい料理

Reviewed by: Chennu Wang

带妈妈一起去的,有接送服务,让我们的出行方便了很多。
虽然红叶还没有开始红,但川床料理无论什么时候去,风景都是那么漂亮。
这是妈妈第三次去京都了,说这次的地方没有游客,最舒服。
汤豆腐很好吃,看着量少,最后都吃到肚子圆滚滚了。
饭后距离返程车出发,还留有一段散步时间,和妈妈一起登上了护国寺,很棒的体验。

Maiko Dance

Reviewed by: Stuart

I thought this was a great experience...I was really only here for the maiko dance, even though I enjoyed the meal & gardens.
I really enjoyed talking to the maiko after the dance and feel that it's something I'll really remember from my trip!

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

Ok but not really tourist oriented

Reviewed by: All

You will see a maiko and get dinner for a significantly lower price then most tours that do this.... but honestly I would go to geisha corner and just watch the show there and not join this tour if you were to ask me again. This is as the tour is in Japanese- I was prepared for this and did not mind it but still.... on the bus you are given a English hearing guide so you can understand and they point out different buildings as you drive but it is pretty dark throughout the tour so you can't really see so much. The food was not tourist friendly, it was authentic Kyoto cuisine and it looked nice but there were very weird looking dishes with no English explanation.... so I did not eat 2/3 of it because I did not want to get sick with ingredients my body cannot handle (we are talking very strange unidentifiable ingredients). The maiko comes and does 2 dances, then you can take a picture with her and then she answers questions in Japanese. So the whole interaction with her is about 15 minutes long tops. Finally the gardens in the location were nice but overall not worth the 60 pounds just go to geisha corner and treat yourself to fancy nice dinner (that you can eat).

We had a very pleasant experience for that night, the dance show was good and the hotel they took us for dinner was in a very nice setting with a nice Japanese Garden. However, it was very dark to take pictures. The night view on the peak in Kyoto summarize our trip nicely.

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

Fantastic

Reviewed by: Scott

We weren't sure what to expect with this dinner as it's a very reasonable cost we had low expectations, however were very pleasantly suprised. The hosts at Shozan were very friendly and accomodating and the food was lovely and traditional.
The arrival of our Maiko was announced and she danced so beautifully allowing the the rare opportunity for a photo with her even a few questions, followed by a walk in the gardens.
The bus tour allowed us an insight into places for us to visit in the following days.
Thanks for a great evening!

  • Shozan garden

Great experience

Reviewed by: Val

We were very pleased with the wonderful dinner set out ready for our arrival. I am vegetarian but could not organise prior notice, so the hostess explained the food types and which were suitable for me. Three of our party are elderly and stools were quickly provided for them. The Maiko was exquisite and performed two dances with opportunity for photos at the end. The walk through the gardens was like a magical forest.
We thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and highly recommend as an insight into Japanese culture

Great experience!

Reviewed by: Grover

We enjoyed every moment of this tour. It was well organized. The Kaiseki dinner was delicious. It gave us a taste of various kinds of Japanese traditional food. The Maiko dance was beautiful and captivating. After the dance, we had a short stroll at the very beautiful Japanese garden which was very enjoyable! The last brief stop of the tour was going to the top of a mountain to see the night view of Kyoto which ended the evening perfectly. We just found we hadn't had enough of all of it!

時間にゆとりがある時に女性同士がおススメ

Reviewed by: 40代女性 

2/27(土)に女性3名で昼食で利用させて頂きました
お食事の内容は、付き出し2品(しらすっぽいピンク色の魚)ゴマ豆腐
その後約10~15分待ち3段弁当が届き中身は(おさしみ3切れ位?の段、おから・エビ・ちまきなどの段、もう1段は焼き魚)
その後ブリ大根が大皿で届きとりわけ
黒豆が乗った白色おこわ・赤だし味噌汁・つけもの
最後にデザートでわらび餅が出ました
上記で一番おいしかったのは黒豆が乗った白色おこわとつけものでした。
お味は特別美味しくもなく、まずくもなく普通です。
味と量に対する価格(コストパフォーマンス)満足度は低めです
男性には量が少ないので、女性同士が良いと思います

今回運悪くどちらかの団体さんと同じ時間に予約になってしまった為
今まで食事してきた中で一番待たされながらの食事でした(^^;
着物で接客して下さったご担当者様もお時間かかってすみませんと
謝まりながらお食事を運ばれていました。
私も、他の女性2名に「ごめんな~時間とってしまって」と謝りながら
待ちました。隣の席の2名もかなり待たされていました。

夕食と違い昼食の場合は、用事と用事の間で取る事が多く、食事が
目的で訪問はしていない為、時間取られた感が大きかったです
京都のこういったお店で食事する際には注意が必要です。
