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!

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)
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)

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. The experience included a tea ceremony and traditional performances, making it a rich and fulfilling experience. It was a great tour where we could meet the maiko up close, chat, and take commemorative photos. I highly recommend it.

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。

At the West Marine reception, they only check your name and then guide you to a boarding area a little distance away. The boat's landmark is the "pink whale."
I chose a course meal. The appetizers, soup, and dessert are self-service, while the rest is served at the table.
On stage, there is a live singing performance to enjoy.
I was looking forward to the sunset, hoping for good weather, but due to the rain, I couldn't enjoy the scenery during departure. However, I was healed by the extraordinary atmosphere.
Ah, but I really wanted to see the sunset from the boat!

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。

The boat stops at the Tokyo Skytree and Odaiba, allowing you to go up to the deck during that time. I was able to take photos while feeling the pleasant breeze. They were also very accommodating when it came to taking pictures with the boat in the background and with a staff member who resembled Kei Nishikori. I would love to bring my family again.
