A MUST DO.
Reviewed by: Silpa, 2019/04/09We 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.

Excellent experience!
Reviewed by: Huang, 2019/03/29Our family really enjoyed the entire experience and was fortunate to be able to talk to Tomichie directly and exchange experiences about each other's lives. I highly recommend this - they are also very accommodating to my children (age 1 and 4).

Excellent experience
Reviewed by: SRao, 2018/01/02We had a good time with Maiko Tamochiye. She was very sweet and could speak english too. It was fun getting to know her. She was fairly new to being a Maiko, which added novelty to the whole experience.

Great experience
Reviewed by: Haeseong Kim, 2017/11/24Everything was perfect except for the tea ceremony. It would have been nice if someone explained the exact procedure of the tea ceremony. It was nice we had a chance to ask many questions, however, question and answer session took more than half of the time.

Thank You Veltra
Reviewed by: David , 2016/04/04We want to thank Veltra for their efforts to find a Maiko available to meet with us for the making of tea, dance, chat and photo opportunity. This was done at short notice and in peak season when other agencies were not able to help. The event itself was very memorable. It would have helped if the person who oversaw activities at the tea house explained what was going to happen and when we would know it would conclude.

Good but need an English interpreter
Reviewed by: nashi, 2014/12/08I (Japanese) and two of my non-Japanese friends participated in the plan.
A house mother explained a tea ceremony in English, but other than that, she expected me to interpret.
