A really memorable and amazing experience with this Maiko Dance and dinner tour. We were escorted to a beautiful and spacious dining hall at Shozan Resort Kyoto. It is an incredibly lovely resort with a beautiful Japanese garden. A traditional and a delicious Japanese dinner was served. (Menu: Saki dzuke “appetizer”, Ha sun “ha-sun assortment”, Otsukuri “sliced raw fish”, Ipoin “a dish”, Konami “small saucepan”, Agemono “fried food”, Gohan “rice”, Kounomono “pickle” , Mizumono “dessert”, While we were enjoying our dinner, a stunningly beautiful Maiko (her name is Kimisora, the meaning of her name is dream) came out onto the stage and performed a brief dance. Kimosora san talked about some geisha history and her own stories of how and why she becomes a Maiko. Kimosora san was fascinated about geisha and their stories when she was a kid and determined to become a geisha one day. She is a friendly and sweet and elegant lady. Her English is excellent. She also showed us her extraordinary beautiful kimono and her special makeup and hairdo. Surprisingly we were given an extra long Q and A time (at least 30 mins or so) with her and we could ask any questions. She answered every question attentively and precisely. At the end we could all take several photos with her. (A reminder to myself : never touch the geisha hands or their clothes and this is an absolute respect to a geisha). During the whole meeting I could also take many photos freely. Kimisora san gave us her name card at the end of the dinner. It was a really really wonderful and memorable evening. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who would like to meet a maiko in an extremely relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere. If I ever visit Tokyo in the future I would join this tour again. A great and joyful life experience. My best wishes to Kimisora san and thank you Veltra for making my dream come true.

We went into it without prior knowledge of the venue, the actual setup or the details of the experience, and i was at awe of the arrangement and the experience, truly a once of a life-time experience you cannot miss if you plan to visit Kyoto!
The venue was superb, the restaurant being reserved solely for us, a genuinely private experience. However, I have to note that the initially, it wasn't a pleasant start due to a misunderstanding by the host restaurant staff. As the lead of the group I approached the front door of the venue, only to be shouted at by an elderly male saying that this is private and i have to leave. I tried to approach him to show him my reservation as i was trying to explain that we are the ones who booked the venue but his attitude got more aggressive and did not want to hear anything i had to say. I was not going to start the experience with conflict so i left and got in touch with the emergency number on the voucher, who immediately resolved the issue and the man later apologized for his behavior. I understand that tourist have been a bit of a hassle lately for Kyoto and hence do not take it personally, however for future reservations, please note of this and don't let it ruin your day.
As for the main experience, there are no words to summarize how magical, pleasant and lovely the rest of the evening was. The translator, an expert in Geisha Tradition was superb, providing us with a detailed history of the tradition and guiding us on how to enjoy the experience as it plays out. The shimasen, Gecko, Geisha and Maikos made us feel like honorary guests and provided us with the most authentic and personal experience we have ever enjoyed, a lovely mix of dance, song, food, entertainment and conversation. Although i say it is a once in a life-time experience, i will definitely book when i visit the country again!
Thank you very much for your rating. We are very sorry for the rudeness of the service at the restaurant. We deeply apologize. Also, thank you for enjoying the traditional Japanese geisha entertainment. Thank you for your valuable comments. We look forward to welcoming you again when you come to Kyoto.

The explanation from the microphone was loud (a common opinion among 13 customers). I wonder why it couldn't be done in English since the maiko spoke softly when addressing us. Although we didn't participate, most of those who experienced the matcha ceremony proceeded without proper explanations, leaving them confused. It hardly felt like a traditional cultural experience. As someone who has practiced tea ceremony for many years, I hope they can find ways to "convey" the true purpose of tea ceremony rather than just scratching the surface. It was nice that we were able to take a group photo.
マイクの説明がうるさい( 13人のお客様共通の意見 舞妓さんに話しかける時は少しソフトなのでなぜ英語でできないのか疑問。 私たちはしませんでしたがお抹茶体験の方のほとんどは何をどうして良いのか適切な説明がないままさっさと進行しわけわからない 伝統文化体験とは到底言えない感じでした。

I was able to enter at the designated time. It was fun to ask questions to the maiko and play games with them. If you lose, you get to drink alcohol. I thought it was a good strategy to lose, so I did. However, since you can also drink if you win, I think it's better to win. You shouldn't miss the maiko's dance either. For the final photo opportunity, it's good to bring two cameras. Since there were only a few people that day, I was able to experience everything. At the end, the maiko waved goodbye as I took a taxi home.
入店の時間で入場することが出来ました。舞子さんに質問したり、舞妓さんとのゲームが面白いです。負けるとお酒がのめます。負けるが得策に思い負けました。しかし、勝ってもお酒が飲めるので勝つのが良いと思います。又舞妓さんの踊りも見逃せません。最後は記念撮影はカメラを2個持っていくと良いです。この日は少数でしたので全体験することが出来ました。最後に舞妓さんのタクシーで帰る所につき手を振ってくださいました。

I was assigned to the second row, but since the first row had empty seats, I ended up in the front row. I was moved to see the maiko up close. The maiko was cute and had a wonderful smile. The experience was quite fulfilling with tea ceremony, photo opportunities, a Q&A session, traditional games, and performances. Both photos and videos were allowed. However, I was surprised by the strong tone of the host when addressing foreign guests, even though their English was fluent.

この体験は全体的にとても素晴らしかったです。舞妓に質問をするのが面白く、彼女のパフォーマンスを見ることもできました。彼女の千社札(名刺)を受け取るのもユニークな体験でした。英語のサポートがあるとは思っていなかったので、これは大きな助けになりました。リストには翻訳があるとは書かれていなかったので、私は日本語を話し、グループのために翻訳するつもりでした。
さて、いくつか改善できる点があったと思います。SS席には誰も座っていなかったので、イベントが始まる前に購入の機会を提供してほしかったです。予約をしたときにそのオプションがあった記憶はなく、可能であれば購入していたと思います。また、参加者の中には失礼な行動をする人もいました。一人の男性の携帯電話がずっと鳴っていて、子供たちが歩き回っていました。スタッフが彼らに携帯電話を静かにするようにお願いし、座っているように促してほしかったです。
それ以外は素晴らしい体験で、また来たいと思います。
This experience was overall pretty great - it was interesting to ask the maiko questions and to see her perform. Receiving her senjafuda (business card) was also a unique experience. I didn’t expect English support as the listing gives no indication that they will be translating everything - I speak Japanese and planned on translating for my group, so this was a big help.
Anyway, a few points I thought could have been better. Nobody was sitting in the SS seats, so I wish they had offered the opportunity to purchase them before the event began - I don’t remember having the option when I booked the reservation, and I would have bought them if possible. Additionally, some of the attendees had some rude conduct - one man’s phone kept chiming throughout, and some children were walking around. I wish the staff had asked them to silence their phone and remain seated.
Otherwise, it was a great experience and I’d come back again.

My relatives from abroad came to Japan. Since it was their first time in Kyoto, I wanted to create a special memory, so I made a reservation. My child and I had just traveled to Kyoto five months ago, so I thought it would be nice to experience something we wouldn't normally do on a typical trip. Since it was summer, we opted for a riverside dinner. I had always wanted to go to a riverside dining experience in Kyoto during the summer. I planned it as a surprise for my relatives without explaining the details of the dinner, as it was also a day when they could meet a maiko.
The sukiyaki we chose was very generous in portion. The meat was tender and delicious. The riverside was cool, and the sound of insects was refreshing. The lanterns reflected beautifully on the river surface, adding to the ambiance. The charming maiko greeted us with a smile, and we were able to take many photos. The staff were also quick to take pictures for us and were very accommodating with refills of tea and other requests. The bus driver was also very friendly. My foreign relatives and my child loved it, and it was a great decision. Being able to see the maiko's dance up close created wonderful memories. I would love to go again!
海外からの親戚が来日。初めての京都ということで、何か特別な思い出になれば、と申し込みました。同行する私と子供は5ヶ月前に京都旅行をしたばかり。。私たちにとっても普通の京都旅行では経験しないことを、と思い、夏ということもあり、川床の夕食にしました。夏に京都に行くなら川床にいきたい、と常々おもっていました。舞妓さんにも会える日程ということで、親戚にはどんな夕食か詳しく説明せず、サプライズにしました。
選んだすき焼きはボリュームたっぷり。お肉も柔らかく美味しい。川床も涼しく、虫の声が涼しげ。川面に写る提灯も情緒たっぷり。そして可愛らしい舞妓さんがにこやかに応対してくれ、写真もたくさんとらせていただきました。スタッフのかたも写真を撮ってくれたり、お茶などのおかわりも、すぐ快く対応してくれました。バスの運転手さんもとても愛想のいいかたでした。外国人の親戚にも、子供にも大好評で、大正解でした。舞妓さんの踊りを間近で見ることができ、素敵な思い出になりました。またぜひ行きたいです!

I live in Kyoto and often have the opportunity to visit Gion and the geisha districts. This time, a friend from out of town wanted to meet a maiko, but since a real okiya experience costs several hundred thousand yen, I made a reservation for a beginner-friendly option. Surprisingly, the maiko's dance, the tea ceremony, and the traditional games were all very enjoyable and highly recommended for first-timers. Plus, it's affordable, so feel free to give it a try!

I used it for the first time.
The Q&A with the maiko, the maiko's dance, taking photos together, and the fun of playing games at the teahouse made for a very enjoyable event. It was a bit hard to see from the back seats, but I was glad to have moved to a better spot where I could enjoy it. The food might feel a bit insufficient if you're really hungry, but being able to see real maiko up close was worth it, and I was satisfied with the price. It’s easy to apply, so I would like to use it again.

I reserved an SS seat (front row, 1,500 yen per person).
In the front row, there are three seats labeled A, B, and C from the right side of the stage, and we are in seat C. The stage is directly in front of seats A and B, so it’s not very visible from seat C.
Moreover, there is an aisle between seats B and C, which staff must use to serve the back row, so they frequently walk through that area. When trying to take photos or videos of the maiko, the staff keeps crossing in front of the camera. Although the staff tries to avoid getting in the way, they often end up in the frame.
Even though it’s the front row, I felt like this seat doesn’t really qualify as an SS seat. The AB seats in the second or third row are much better. I suggest that the organizing company reconsider the pricing and arrangement of the seats, or at least make the seating layout clear at the time of booking.
SS席(最前列 1人1500円)を予約。
最前列は舞台から向かって右からA・B・Cと3席あるが私たちはC席。
舞台はABの間の正面にあり、C席からはあまり見えない。
しかもBC席の間が通路になっており、後方席の配膳のためにスタッフが必ずそこを通ります。
舞妓さんの写真や動画を撮ろうとしてもスタッフが何度も横切る。
一応、スタッフは避けるそぶりは見せるが、結構カメラに写りこんでくる。
最前列ではあるがこの席でSS席なの?と感じました。
2、3列目のAB席のほうがよほどましです。
催行業者は席の料金設定や席の配置を再検討、若しくは席の配置が予約時にわかるようにしては。

I received a reminder email saying that the meeting time was pushed back by an hour, so when I arrived at that time, I was surprised to be told, "We're about to finish." This was a highlight of the trip I had reserved for my mother, and it was the last day. After checking, they said it was a mistake by the tour company's staff, not VELTRA. The staff on the phone apologized profusely, but this is the kind of mistake that a company like this should never make. I said I couldn't pay a cancellation fee for something like this, and after discussing it among themselves, they called me back and said they would arrange for a maiko to come again if I was still in Kyoto. I had to change my plans on short notice and decided to have it redone in the evening. When I arrived, there was one woman there, but there was no apology, and I was taken to the room with the maiko. The maiko was very nice, and it was a fun time as an event, but her kimono was plain, which made me think it was because she was called in suddenly. It's a small thing, but I really felt sorry for my mother, who was looking forward to this. Even when leaving, there were no words of apology. I will never use this company again, nor would I recommend it. It's the worst.
集合時間が1時間遅くなったというリマインドメールが来たので、当日その時間目指して行ったら「もう終わりますが」と言われてビックリ。母のために予約していた旅のハイライトでした。しかも最終日。先方が調べたら、ベルトラではなく催行会社従業員のミスとのこと。電話口のスタッフは平謝りでしたが、この手の会社が1番やっては行けないミスです。こんなの聞いたことない、キャンセル料なんて払えないと言うと、スタッフで協議した上で電話があり、まだ京都にいるなら舞妓さんを呼び直すと言って来ました。予定を急遽変更し気を取り直して夕方にやり直して貰う事に。到着すると女性が1人居ましたがなんの謝罪もなく舞妓さんの居る部屋に通されました。舞妓さんは大変良い方でイベントとしては楽しい時間でしたが、お着物が地味で、急に呼ばれたからかなと思わざるを得ませんでした。些細なことですが、本当に楽しみにしていた母が気の毒でなりません。帰るときも、ひとことも謝罪の言葉はありませんでした。2度とこの会社は利用しませんし、おすすめしません。最低です。
We sincerely apologize for the errors in our communication. We also regret that our staff's apology on the day was insufficient. The maiko who was scheduled to participate initially came as planned, so the kimono was the same. We deeply apologize for the inconvenience caused, especially since you were looking forward to it. We will strengthen our internal confirmation system and work on staff training and preventing recurrence.
この度はご案内に誤りがあり、大変申し訳ございませんでした。
また当日スタッフのお詫びが十分ではなく、誠に申し訳ございません。
当初ご参加予定回の舞妓さんにそのままお越しいただきましたので、お着物は同じものとなっておりました。
楽しみにしていただいておりましたところ、ご迷惑をお掛けすることとなりまして、改めて深くお詫び申し上げます。
社内でも再度確認体制を整え、スタッフへの指導並びに再発防止に努めて参ります。

You have to wait outside until the designated time. Since you wait on the road, it's fine to arrive just in time, but it's a bit of a tricky location as it's on the second floor of the building. The lunch bento arrived, and the catering staff was at the reception. The maiko also arrived by taxi about ten minutes earlier. The seating consists of simple tables and chairs, with four people per row, and indeed, the seats closer to the maiko are better if you pay a higher amount.
Once the bento was brought to the table, the event started somewhat casually. The people who were there to experience the tea ceremony began, while those there for lunch started eating on their own, and then the maiko's tea ceremony began. After the ceremony, there was a Q&A session with the maiko, followed by a commemorative photo session with her. I wondered about the traditional games, but it turned out that the event was already over.
It ended surprisingly quickly.
時間迄外で待たされます。道路上で待つからギリギリで行ってもいい位ですがビルの2階だから少しわかりにくい場所ではありました。ランチの弁当が届き仕出し屋さんが受付していました。舞妓さんも10分位前にタクシーで乗り付けました。座席は簡単なテーブルと椅子席一列4人でやはり前の方が舞妓さんに近く金額をあげれば良い席になります。
テーブル席に仕出し弁当が運ばれて何となく開始して、お茶のお手前だけ体験する人達に合わせて、ランチの人はなんとなく勝手に食べ始め、舞妓さんのお手前が始まりました。お手前終わると舞妓さんへの質疑タイム、その後舞妓さんとの記念撮影して、アレお座敷遊びは?と思いましたが、もう終了との事でした。
びっくりする位早く終わりました。
Thank you for participating this time.
Regarding the experience on the day of participation, it was divided into two parts: the first half included the tea ceremony, questions, and photo sessions, while the second half featured dancing and games. There were participants from multiple courses, so it is difficult to say for certain, but based on the conversation, it seems that you may have left partway through. With participants from different courses, it is not unusual for someone to exit midway, and the staff may not have noticed.
In the future, we will review our announcements to ensure that everyone can enjoy the experience in a clear manner. Additionally, we will provide another reminder about the second half of the program at the end of the first half, and we will ensure that our staff confirms the program details with any guests who choose to exit.
この度はご参加いただきまして、ありがとうございます。
ご参加日の体験ですが、前半と後半に分かれておりまして、お点前、質問、写真撮影の前半のコースの方、踊りや遊びの後半のコースからの方、前半後半両方にご参加の方がいらっしゃりました。複数のコースの方がいらっしゃいましたので、はっきりと分かりかねますが、お話しの内容からしますと、お客様は途中で退室された可能性がございます。複数のコースの方がいらっしゃる場合、お客様が途中退出されても不自然ではございませんので、スタッフも気が付かずにいたかと存じます。
今後、進行のアナウンスを見直し致しまして、皆様にわかりやすく楽しんでいただけるよう改めて参ります。また前半終了時にも再度、後半プログラムの案内をさせていただきまして、退出されるお客様にもプログラム内容の確認を行うよう社内で徹底させていただきます。

The person in front spread their smartphone cover wide and blocked the aisle, with only about one-third of their upper body visible. I couldn't see the seated姿 at all.
I participated with the understanding that I was in the very back seat.
The maiko did their job well. Thank you.
I was left dissatisfied with the response from the organizers about "if you pay an additional fee..." Even if I pay the extra fee, I would still be blocked, right?
Is it acceptable for the person in front, who is being greedy, to be satisfied while those behind cannot see?
I've taken the time to come here, and I've paid money, so I want to see the performance.
I left, citing "I want to do some sightseeing" as my reason, but it was a waste of time.
What is a "sen-sha-fuda"? I did not receive one.
前の方がスマホをカバーまで広げて
通路まで遮り続け
舞う姿も上半身3分の1程度。
座った姿は全く見えず。
最初に1番後ろの席という事を納得した上で参加しました。
舞妓さんはしっかりお仕事をされていました。
ありがとうございました。
運営側の『追加料金を払えば…』という対応に不満が残りました。
追加料金を払っても遮られたままでしょ?
後ろの人は見えなくても
前の欲張りな上客が満足すればよろしいでしょうか?
時間を割いてきていますし
お金は支払っていますので
舞う姿は見たいですよ。
『観光したいので』と理由をつけて退席しましたが時間の無駄でした。
千社札?とは何でしょうか?
いただいていません。
Thank you for participating this time. If there are any actions that may inconvenience other customers, our staff will address them, and we will share this internally to ensure more attention is paid during the dance. Regarding the name tag, I understand that you left partway through, and due to the program's structure, it was intended to be handed to you by the maiko during the final photo session, so you may not have received it. Thank you for your valuable feedback.
この度はご参加いただきありがとうございました。他のお客様のご迷惑となる行為がございましたら、スタッフからお声掛けさせていただいておりますが、踊りの際はより注意するよう社内でも共有させていただきます。千社札につきましては、お客様は途中で退席されたとのことで、プログラムの構成上、最後のお写真撮影の際に舞妓さんからお渡しいただいておりましたので、受け取られなかったかと存じます。貴重なご意見をいただきまして、ありがとうございました。

The meal was an ordinary catering service. The maiko, who said she had only been in the profession for five months, seemed to tremble in her fingertips and around her knees while dancing. I felt sorry for her. I think it would be better to include a note in the experience recruitment stating, "This will take place in a section of a building," as it would change the expectations of those who apply. After the event, when I chatted with other participants, it seemed they had a similar impression.
食事はありふれた仕出し。入ってまだ5ヶ月と言ってた舞妓さんは、踊りの時には指先や膝付近が震えていました。可哀想な気がしました。体験募集の中で、「ビルの一画で行ないます」と断り書きを入れた方が、応募してきた方の期待の持ち方が違うと思います。終了後に他の参加者と雑談を交わしたら、同じような印象を持たれたようでした。
Thank you for participating. It seems that we were unable to meet your expectations, and we will review the content and information provided internally to ensure better guidance in the future. We appreciate your valuable feedback. Thank you.
この度はご参加いただきまして、ありがとうございます。お客様のご希望に沿わない形となったようでございまして、十分なご案内ができるよう、社内で掲載内容等を見直しさせていただきます。貴重なご意見を頂戴しまして、ありがとうございました。

I was in the back seat, but I was very satisfied to be able to play with the maiko! I asked the staff to take a video of us while we were playing. I don't think there are many opportunities like this, so it was a very valuable experience. Thank you very much!
後ろの席でしたが舞妓さんとお座敷遊びできて大満足です!スタッフの方にお願いして、お座敷遊びしているところを動画を撮ってもらいました。こんな機会中々ないと思うので、とても貴重な体験をさせていただきました。本当にありがとうざいました!
Thank you for participating. We are very pleased that you were able to see the maiko up close. Please come back to see the maiko again!
ご参加いただきましてありがとうございました。
近くで舞妓さんを見ていただけて大変嬉しく思います。
舞妓さんにもまた会いに来てください!

I had a very enjoyable two and a half hours at the tea house, eating delicious kaiseki cuisine while chatting with the maiko and watching a dance performance. I might have made the proprietress a bit flustered because I got so caught up in the fun conversation that I ate slowly. I'm not sure what the typical maiko experience at a regular tea house is like, but being told that it was a special opportunity to enjoy a maiko performance, which is something you usually wouldn't get to see in a lifetime, was a rare and valuable experience.
お茶屋さんて美味しい懐石料理をたべながら舞妓さんと色々とお話をして、舞を一曲見たとても楽しい2時間半でした。
楽しい話に気を取られて食べるのが遅くなりちょっと女将さんを慌てさせてしまったかもしれません。
普通のお茶屋での舞妓遊びはどういうものなのかは知らないですが一言さんお断りと言われ、通常では一生垣間見る事のない舞妓遊びがアクティビティとして堪能出来たのはまたとない貴重な体験でした。
Thank you for using our tea shop. We sincerely appreciate your enjoyment. Thank you for your kind words about your valuable experience. We look forward to serving you again in the future.
この度お茶屋さんご利用ありがとうございました。楽しんで頂き誠にありがとうございます。
貴重な体験のお言葉ありがとうございます。今後とも宜しくお願い致します。

I had a great time. I wondered how the locations for watching the maiko performances are decided. The two participants were closer, while those with three or four people were at the ends, which felt a bit awkward.
とても楽しかったです。舞妓さんの舞を観れる場所が、どうやって決まるのか❓と❓思いました。二人参加の方が近くて,3人4人の人達は、端の場所でしたので、少し違和感を感じました。

My daughter, who is in elementary school, dressed as a maiko for her traditional dance class and performed "Seasons of Kyoto," so we participated for reference. During the Q&A session, we learned tips on how to dance cutely and got to enjoy some traditional games, which was a lot of fun! (My daughter even won, haha!) At the end, we were treated to a performance of "Seasons of Kyoto," and I was moved by the maiko's thoughtfulness! Honestly, when I first entered the venue, I thought, "Huh? Is this it?" and didn't have high expectations, but I never imagined I would be this satisfied. Right after it ended, my daughter asked, "When can we come to see the maiko again?" It was definitely worth the trip from the same place as the maiko!
娘(小学生)が習い事の日舞で舞妓さんの格好をして
「京の四季」を踊るので、参考にと参加しました。
質問タイムでは踊りをかわいく踊るコツを
教えてもらったり、
お座敷遊びをさせてもらったり大満喫!
(娘さん勝っちゃった(笑))
最後に京の四季まで踊って頂いて、
舞妓さんのお心遣いに感動しました!!
正直会場に入ったとき、「え?ここ?」みたいな感じで
あまり期待せず参加し始めましたが、
まさかこんなに満足できるとは思いませんでした。
娘も終わった直後に
「次はいつ舞妓さんに会いに来る?」と。
舞妓さんの出身地と同じところから
わざわざ参加した甲斐がすごくありました!
Thank you very much for participating!
We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed it.
Your daughter’s participation in the traditional play really energized the atmosphere!
Your kind words are a great encouragement to all our staff.
Thank you for spending your valuable time on this experience.
We look forward to welcoming you again!
ご参加いただきまして誠にありがとうございました!
お楽しみいただけたようで大変嬉しいです。
娘様がお座敷あそびにご参加いただいたことで場がとても盛り上がりました!
お褒めのお言葉までスタッフ一同の励みとなります。
貴重なお時間をこの体験に使っていただき、本当にありがとうございました。
またのお越しを是非お待ちしております。
