舞妓さんの舞鑑賞+お座敷遊び+京料理のお食事+町家見学 歓談や写真撮影も楽しめる 登録有形文化財の町家「冨田屋」催行 <午後・夕方/上京区>

良かったり、よくなかったり。悲喜こもごも

Reviewed by: 火の神神楽

初めて体験する舞妓さんの優雅な舞やとても貴重な茶道体験はすごくよかったし、とても楽しめました。
すこしがっかりなのは、町屋見学がなかったこと、1日1組限定ではなかったこと。ベルトラの内容との違いはなぜ?生じたのでしょうか

Reply from activity provider

VELTRAをご利用いただきありがとうございます。

当日は、町家見学が行われず、1日1組限定でのご案内ではなかったとのこと、実際の体験内容がご予約時のスケジュールと相違しており誠に申し訳ございませんでした。
催行会社に確認いたしましたところ、ご参加日には期間限定の町家ライトアップイベントを行っていたため、スケジュール通りのご案内が出来かねてしまった旨報告がございました。当日は、普段はお客様をお通ししていない2階のお部屋を貸切にてご案内した旨報告を受けております。

町家見学や1組限定でのご案内を楽しみにご予約をされたかと存じ、弊社といたしましても当日のご案内が叶わず心苦しい限りでございます。
ツアーページにつきましては早速修正を行わせていただきました。また、今後このような事が起きぬよう、催行会社とも密に連絡、確認を取り、お客様にご提供する情報に誤りのないよう努めてまいります。

はじめての舞鑑賞や茶道体験をお楽しみいただけたとのこと、大変嬉しく感じております。
現地でのお時間等は素敵なひとときをお過ごしいただけておりましたら幸いです。

ご不明な点などございましたら、ご遠慮なくお申し付けください。
またのご利用を心よりお待ちしております。

舞妓さんまたは芸妓さん 祇園でお座敷体験 お座敷遊び+舞鑑賞+お抹茶 昭和初期から三代続く祇園のお茶屋催行 <貸切/撮影自由/英語対応可/祇園東>

驚きましたプロ魂

Reviewed by: はなかみ王子

親子3人で貸切でした。間近にお手前と踊りを見て、いや体感というか、その動きに驚き、芸妓さんと生のおしゃべり、すざましいとも思えるプロ魂に心を揺さぶられました。祇園踊りを見に京都へまた行きたいと思います。薄灯の玄関の前で、本当にここで良いのかと引戸を開けるのに勇気が要りました。

Fabulous experience

Reviewed by: Michelle

We had a wonderful time as a family watching the tea ceremony. It was very interesting and lovely to be able to ask loads of questions. My only criticism is we couldn’t find the venue without the help of locals but that too added to the experience.

Kyoto Private Maiko Entertainment with Tea Ceremony & Photo Op

Mesmerizing experience with our Maiko

Reviewed by: Michael T

Our tea ceremony with the Maiko was truly one of our favorite things that we did in Japan. She was truly mesmerizing, fascinating, welcoming and so very kind. She was engaging us in really wonderful conversation and gave us such a wonderful glimpse into her life and the hard work it takes to become a Maiko and Geiko. I highly recommend this service and would definitely go back next time I’m in Kyoto. Thank you so much for such a wonderful and memorable experience.

Kyoto Private Maiko Entertainment with Tea Ceremony & Photo Op

A charming afternoon with a Maiko

Reviewed by: Chris

This was definitely one of the highlights of my trip to Japan. The host was very charming. We were invited into and treated to tea and snacks as the Maiko performed a beautiful dance. Initially I was afraid the language barrier would have sullied the experience but her English was quite good! We shared tid bits about our lives as did she. We played games and laughed and in what seemed like no time at all our time was up. Most definitely an experience every person traveling to Japan should live.

Very appreciate

Reviewed by: Mono

I book for 9 people and got 2 Maiko. 1 maiko name Tomie is very good in English she teach us play a game and answer our questions very clear. The owner is good in English too. We got a warm welcome and best experience everyone love it. Tea is quite bitter but they have a Japanese sweet that you can share with your friends. And you have permission to take a picture all times. After tea ceremony they come to send you and take a picture in front of a restaurant.

You can follow google map from VELTRA website and please save a picture of the restaurant because they don’t have a name in English and cannot search in google map apps

Kyoto Private Dinner at Historical Teahouse with Maiko Dance Show

Amazing cultural experience

Reviewed by: American Tourists

We knew that we were going to have an amazing cultural experience from the moment we arrived.

We were greeted by our hostess from the moment of our arrival. She was very pleasant, informative and flexible. We arrived nearly 30 minutes before expected therefore our hostess served us tea and took us on a tour of the house.

The highlight of the evening was meeting the Kyoto Maiko. Our group was allowed to ask questions and we were very surprised to learn that she was only 16 years old. Her level of grace, elegance and maturity far exceeded her years. My favorite part of the evening was learning the traditional games and the cultural dance was exceptionally beautiful.

The dinner was very traditional and also exceptionally tasty.

I highly recommend this tour for a truly culturally enriching evening.

Kyoto Private Maiko Entertainment with Tea Ceremony & Photo Op

Memorable Experience in Kyoto

Reviewed by: Deb

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.

Welcome to Kyoto~

Reviewed by: lisa k

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!

We absolutely loved the hour we spent with the Maiko in Kyoto. We cannot recommend the Tea Ceremony highly enough, we are still talking about it.

Amazing experience-highlight of our trip

Reviewed by: EmilyJ

I am so thankful to have found this experience online. I have been fascinated by Geisha culture and history for a long time and to be able to have this chance was amazing. The tea house owner spoke wonderful English and gave us a very quick, but thorough history of Geikos and Maikos. She also took some photos for us during the tea, and outside the teahouse before we began, which was nice.

Tomichie, the Maiko, was a complete delight. She also spoke wonderful English and really was breathtaking during the dance. You can tell how much practice goes into the work that she does. During the Q&A session she gave thoughtful answers and was interested in ours too. I think we could've chatted with her much longer, but sadly our time went by so quickly. Watching her with my son, 6, was heartwarming. He said that this experience was the highlight of our trip in Kyoto (and I don't disagree with him)!

Wonderful experience

Reviewed by: AL R

We weren’t sure what to expect as I did this online before our trip. However, all the reviews are accurate - this was a great experience. The tea house is outside the main Geiko areas in Gion but it’s very easy to find. We ended up having a private event with our family of five and it could not have been better. Our Maiko was very sweet, spoke very good English, and performed a beautiful a dance and tea ceremony. Very happy we booked this event instead of others we saw elsewhere that had larger groups, unnecessary inclusions, or were much more expensive. Note this performance and tea ceremony were with an apprentice Geiko (Maiko) but it was perfect for our family to observe and learn more about such a fascinating and elegant element of Japanese culture.

Kyoto Private Maiko Entertainment with Tea Ceremony & Photo Op

Wonderful Japanese experience!

Reviewed by: Caterina

It was a deep dive into Japanese culture. A Gheisha (but they call theirself “Geiko”) danced for us and then made matcha tea for us (it was very good, and they also served us some Japanese sweets). After the tea, the geiko has talked with us about many things (where we came from, what we’ve visited in japan and so on). The whole cerimony lasts 40/50 minute.
I suggest to arrive a few minutes before, because the tea House is non so simple to find. I absolutely recommend this experience because it takes you into the real Japanese world, and you have the opportunity to talk to a real gheisha and know her lifestyle, her education, etc.

We had quite low expectations after reading in guide books that tourist tea ceremonies usually aren’t held with real Geiko, however this experience was fantastic. The tea room is rather unassuming but our party of 3 adults had the pleasure of a Spring Dance, tea ceremony and 30 minutes chatting to the Geiko (who spoke excellent English). We would highly recommend

A MUST DO.

Reviewed by: Silpa

We got a real taste of the geisha culture. We got to meet a geisha and a maiko.
We got to talk to them about their culture and lifestyle and also got pictures.
The dance performance was lovely, and the tea ceremony was fascinating. The house mother was very accommodating. Although she always seemed in a rush, a hurry.. she was very sweet and even translated conversations between us and the geisha and gave us a brief insight into their lives.
Overall, it was a memorable experience, we thoroughly enjoyed it even though it seemed a bit rushed.
