Staff don't speak English well however they do make an effort to make you feel comfortable during the makeover session. They know enough phrases to explain the make-up being applied and what to do during the dressing up. The photographer is very good in instructing small movements in order to get the right shot. Clients however don't get to choose the shot to be printed as this is under the discretion of the photographer. All shots can be viewed but clients have to purchase a CD worth 2000yen + tax which I find to be on the pricey side. Overall, the experience still is one of the highlights of my Japan trip.

I'm from Kyoto but I've always wanted to try a maiko makeover.
The staff were all very nice people and helped so much!
Thank you.
They did my makeup so well and it was really great. They ask you if you would prefer a "cute look" or a "beautiful look" and do your makeup style for whichever you choose. They can change the look with eyebrow makeup and eyeliner. I chose the "cute look" makeup.
You can choose from so many kinds of kimono and kanzashi! While I asked the staff several questions like "what color of kimono do real maiko wear?" I chose my kimono. As for my kanzashi, I chose June's flower, the hydrangea.
The photographer was also wonderful and made me feel much less nervous with the fun conversation we had. I recommend taking the photos in the garden which has a different atmosphere from the room.
While walking around, a lot of travelers took photos with me! It was really embarrassing, but on the other hand, it made me happy!
The changing room is very large and they have face wash, shampoo, lotion, hair dryers, towels, contact lens solution, so you don't need to bring anything.
I showed my mother and grandmother the photos I took on the day of the makeover and they loved them!
Next time I want to bring my friends from other prefectures and from overseas to do this with me. Thank you for making it a great experience from start to finish.

It was an amazing experience. If this makeover is something that you have dreamed of doing, then I absolutely recommend doing it. I was only disappointed that it rained on my day, and therefore, I couldn't walk the streets, however, that did not deter me from enjoying the day. The girls were great.

I actually haven’t even expected to get such seamless experience. All steps of maica makeover were very well thought through, well planned and organized. I was very happy with makeup since I was also offered to choose between several makeup options. And both makeup, hairdo, dressing up was made fast and by highly skilled staff. There was a good selection of nice kimonos as well. I also liked flexible option of taking customized studio pictures.
Would definitely recommend this place!

The ladies that helped us get ready were so lovely and efficient. The photographer helps you pose and we went for a walk in a park and everyone came up to us and gave us beautiful comments on our look. Highly recommend!
I would definitely suggest doing the walking package where you can take your own photos as well.
And when we came back a little early, they took some more photos outside for us using our phones, so we could be in a group photo.

We had a great time making sweets at the lovely sweet shop in Arashiyama. Although we didn't speak much Japanese and our teacher didn't speak much English, with the help of picture cards and demonstrations, he showed us how to make the sweets and he did help us to do some of the trickier more detailed crafting. It was great fun, and it made a nice break away from the crowds in the centre of town. We got to eat one of the sweets we made, with some matcha tea and the others we took home with us. We would highly recommend this activity for all ages.

I did this activity with my 7 year old daughter. We had a great time and it was one of the highlights of our trip to Japan. My daughter loved it. The instructor did not speak much English, but we were able to figure things out. Making the sweets was fairly straightforward, but the instructor helped out when necessary.
The sweets are delicious. A very unique and fun experience that I highly recommend.

年に2〜3回、京都には訪れますが、
今回の旅行は満開の桜の他に、
いつもとは違った楽しみ方をしたいな、
と思い、参加させていただきました。
職人さんの丁寧な説明で、
初めてでも可愛らしく作ることができたこと、
また、1人参加でしたが、同じテーブルに座った人達と一緒に和気藹々と楽しめたので、とても満足できました(*´∀`)
季節によって、体験できるお菓子の内容が違うようなので、夏の旅行でまた予約したいと思いました!!

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.

晒竹で申し込んでいましたが、材料を見るとシボ竹で作りたくなって、1000円の差額を支払っての変更に快く応じて頂きました。
小学生以来の工作にどぎまぎしましたが、修正していただきながら完成させることができました。帰ってから自作だけを眺めていると上出来じゃないかなと自画自賛(笑)嬉しかったです。
作っている途中でもう少し竹を選ぶべきだったなと気づき、完成イメージを自分なりに持っていくべきだったところが反省点です。
削り方のポイントを教えていただき、お茶杓の拝見時にどういうところを見るべきなのかが腑に落ちた点も収穫でした。

当日は妻と2人の貸切ツアーでした。集合場所の駅から神社でお参りを済ませて最初の利き酒のお店へ。なんと満席で1時間待ち。ガイドさんの機転で近くのお店で3種の利き酒。伏見のお酒はやはり美味しい。月桂冠の記念館での試飲を頂きツアーのメインイベント 伏見の全蔵17種類の利き酒セットのお店へ。なんと満席とのこと。再度のガイドさんの機転で店内の別なお店で9種飲み比べセットを頂きました。ハプニングはありましが、伏見のお酒、街並みを満喫できたツアーでした。ガイドさんに感謝です。

I decided on this studio based on their fair price, high quality, and positive reviews, and I'm glad I did! While my wife was getting dressed as a Geisha, I decided I'd take part in the experience with her and do the Samurai plan. On the way to the dressing room there was a small outdoor area with a very unique looking duck and a good number of impressive looking koi - truly beautiful and relaxing. Upon arrival, the room was very well kept and the material of the clothes were obviously quite high. When we got to the shooting room and they handed me the katana, I was relieved to discover it had proper weight and they did not save on expense with a cheap, fake sword of weak material and poor quality.
For those wanting to try this out, I'd definitely recommend opting into the stroll/outdoor options for some truly fantastic pictures. Also important is timing! If you want to have pictures on your free stroll time with few to no people in the background, go at the earliest appointment available (that's what we preferred), however, if you'd like it to look like a bustling city in that era, an afternoon shoot will have a good crowd of other people from various shops who are also dressing up!
Enjoy!
Dear Mr. Stephen N,
Thank you for your message!
And also thank you for coming our store with your wife.
Maiko and Samurai are Japanese traditional cultures. We hope that more people will know it through this experience.
The strolling plan is one of the most popular
plan. because you can take your favorite photos outside. We are so glad that you and your wife are satisfied with this experience.
We look forward to seeing again someday.
Thank you very much!
Have a nice trip!

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

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.
