Summer Beer Garden with Unlimited Drinks and Maiko Dance Performance in Gion

Great experience, great price

Reviewed by: Stephanie

This was a great activity. The food and beer was delicious and filling and the entertainment was fantastic. We were able to talk with our Maiko for a few minutes and take a picture with her after her performance. We did not speak very much Japanese (only the very basics), but that did not diminish our experience. We had a great time, and it was nice we didn't have to spend a ton of money on one dinner like some other activities that are available with maiko. I would definitely recommend this if you'd like to meet a maiko and see her perform.

It was really fun. とにかく楽しかったです。

Reviewed by: ゾーガン

We participated as a couple. We had accumulated points on Veltra, so we decided to join this experience that we were interested in. The instruction was kind and thorough, and after some practice, we were ready for the real thing! Experiencing it deepened my appreciation for Edo Kiriko. The way to apply force and the difficulty of achieving uniformity were all refreshing, and enjoying a drink from the finished glass was the best!

夫婦での参加です。ベルトラでのポイントが溜まっていたので興味のあったこちらに参加しました。親切丁寧に教えていただき、練習してから本番!

乗合屋形船 お台場・スカイツリー周遊コース 季節のお料理&飲み放題付<蔵前発>by船宿 釣新

My first experience on a yakatabune (houseboat)! 初めての屋形船!

Reviewed by: はみでるプリン

I made a reservation for the lunch course! I took motion sickness medication and was fully prepared, but some people felt groggy (it seems the boat sways due to the waves from other boats during the day). Since it was everyone's first time on a boat, there were some unexpected events, but we had a great time taking commemorative photos with the Tokyo Skytree in the background on the deck✨

The food was the cheapest course, but the tempura was freshly fried one piece at a time and delicious.

I planned a surprise for my husband's birthday gift by participating in this event. We arrived early and were allowed on the boat, where we enjoyed drinks and light snacks while waiting to set sail. Once we departed, we enjoyed wonderful performances and a course meal. There was a break in the performances, followed by a birthday celebration and the appearance of the cake, which was a nice touch. The staff was attentive, and the surprise was a great success. I was worried about the weather, but I'm glad the event went ahead.

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

Pleasent affordable geisha experience

Reviewed by: Leslie Arcin

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

My husband and visited Tokyo from Washington, DC and were beyond pleased with our experience on the Yukatabune Dinner Cruise! We did many wonderful things on our trip to Tokyo but every part of this cruise exceeded our expectations and we both agree it was our favorite part of the trip! The food was delicious and plentiful-sashimi, tempura, noodles, and more! We were stuffed! The drinks kept flowing and the whole boat turned into one big party of laughter and fun! Friendly staff and great company! We even received a beautiful gift when the staff heard we were celebrating our wedding anniversary! We definitely recommend this cruise to anyone who is looking to experience traditional Japanese food and culture in a very fun, unique, and beautiful setting!

Reviewed by: エチゴヤ

On the day of the event, it was unfortunately rainy and felt a bit cool, but I was able to escape reality for a moment while enjoying a delicious meal (I chose sukiyaki) at a riverside location with an outstanding view, accompanied by the dance and stories of the maiko. (Laughs) Of course, photography was also perfectly allowed!

I heard that out of the five riverside venues, four were open for guests, and we had four maiko come to us: Umetae and Fumikou from Kamishichiken, and Kikuyae and Kanesue from Miyagawa-cho. (Unfortunately, due to time constraints, I couldn't meet Fumikou... so sad.)

Above all, I was really pleased with the attentiveness and care of the staff. I highly recommend this place! Ladies! (Laughs)

Kyoto Maiko Entertainment with Optional Meal

A short but lovely visit with maiko

Reviewed by: Jessie

This event takes place in part of a studio on the second floor of a building. There are stairs outside in front of the building that go up to the studio. We arrived early, as recommended in the program description, but ended up waiting for the previous program to finish before we could enter. Before entering the studio, you need to take your shoes off and leave them on a rack.

Once inside, there are some rows of benches facing towards a low "stage" on one side of the room. After everyone has taken their seats, the maiko enters. The English translator for the maiko was very good. The maiko introduces herself, and there is an opportunity to have your photograph taken with her and receive a slip of paper with her name stamped on it (in Japanese, of course). After everyone has their photograph, the maiko performs two dances. Then there is a question-and-answer session, and then the maiko explains the rules for a drinking game. She and the translator demonstrated the game once, and then the maiko will ask a series of volunteers to come up to the front to challenge her. If you lose, don't worry--you can choose to drink a cup of water instead of sake!

All of this takes place just over a half hour, but it didn't feel particularly rushed. The maiko was very courteous with answering questions and it was fun to play the game against her. I felt like many of the people in our audience were too shy to ask questions or volunteer, but I would encourage people to not be too shy and enjoy themselves!

My grandchild requested to meet a maiko, and we were able to have a wonderful time at a reasonable price. Ume-san, who has been a maiko for a year, was impressive with her dancing skills that she has practiced since childhood. She is also very good at conversation.

奈良駅発 日帰りバスツアー 法隆寺+中宮寺+慈光院+薬師寺+唐招提寺<約7時間/昼食付/JR奈良駅・近鉄奈良駅発>

I recommend taking a sightseeing bus. 観光バスがお勧めです。

Reviewed by: テレサ

I participated alone. It's convenient that you can leave your luggage on the bus. The cute guide shared a wealth of detailed information. The temple is quite far from the train station, so the sightseeing bus is an efficient way to get around. The admission fee is included, so I think it's reasonably priced. It was a hot day, and the cold somen noodles included in the lunch I ordered were very thoughtful. Most participants were middle-aged, but the walking pace was just right, and everyone was able to gather on time. We arrived at the station as scheduled and were able to head home. I would like to use this service again. Enjoying matcha while looking at the garden at Jiko-in is also nice.

一人で参加しました。荷物はバスに頂けることができるので便利です。可愛いガイドさんのお話がとても豊富で詳しいお話でした。お寺までは電車の駅からも遠いので、観光バスは効率よく周れます。入館料も含まれていますので、金額的にも妥当ではないでしょうか。暑い日でしたので、お願いした昼食の中の冷たいお素麺がとても心のこもった物でした。参加者は中高年齢層の人が多かったのですが、歩きも丁度よく、集合時間にも皆さん時間どうり集まることができました。予定どうり駅に到着して帰路につくことができました。また利用したいと思います。慈光院でお庭を眺めてのお抹茶もいいですね。

The tutor is so nice and his English is easy to understand. We feel a little bit strange when we are on the way because it is located in residential area. However, the image changed when we get into the classroom.

Just one concerning point for foreigners that we need to buy some boxes to store our product well. Or else, we are not able to bring them to our home safely since we need to take flight.

I had a great time. 大変楽しめました

Reviewed by: hrs

I have visited Kyoto multiple times on business trips and have seen all the temples and shrines, but I had never had the chance to interact with the okiya, maiko, or geiko, so I wanted to experience it at least once and signed up for this.

The duration was a bit short at 90 minutes, but with food and drinks included, the friendly maiko answered various questions and posed for photos multiple times. Considering that experiences at tea houses can be quite expensive, I was very satisfied to have this comprehensive experience at such a reasonable price.

This time, I was lucky because there were cancellations, and due to the season, there were fewer applicants, so we were able to enjoy the experience with just five participants. I would like to sign up again if I have the opportunity.

出張で何度も京都に訪れていて、寺社仏閣は一通り見ましたが、お座敷や舞妓さん、芸妓さんなどと接することには縁がなかったので、一度は体験したいと思い申し込みました。
時間は90分と少し短いですが、料理とお酒が付き、気さくな舞妓さんでいろいろな質問にも答えてもらい、写真撮影も何回も応じてもらい、また、お茶屋などでは高額なことが、この料金で一通りの体験ができ、大変満足しています。
今回は、キャンセルがでたことと、季節柄、申込者が少ないことも重なり、5人の参加者でじっくり鑑賞できましたので、ラッキーでした。
また機会があれば申し込みたいと思います。
