It is an intimate cultural immersion that reflects the real rhythm and refinement of an authentic ozashiki evening. •Created by someone deeply connected to the hanamachi Years of trusted relationships in Kyoto’s most exclusive flower districts allow the creators to reproduce details that outsiders would not know. •Authentic interaction, not photo-op entertainment Guests are invited into the conversational, playful, and highly nuanced atmosphere of genuine ozashiki hospitality—something impossible to imitate without deep cultural knowledge. •Respect for traditional forms The dance, etiquette, and presentation follow the standards used in real teahouse settings, preserving their integrity. •Small, invitation-only format Unlike commercial venues, this program is intentionally limited in capacity to maintain the intimacy ## Before you book - Meeting point: 【Access】 okazakian：Japan, - Starts 18:00: one departure a day - Food included: see what is included - Wheelchair accessible: operator-marked **Pickup:** No hotel pickup: everyone meets at the start point ## Key facts - Price: from €145 per person - Duration: 2h - Rating: 4.89/5 from 44 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Free cancellation (see policy below) - Operator: 舞妓さんと楽しむ京都の四季 - Group: Shared tour - Guide languages: Japanese, English - Start times: 18:00 - Booking: Instant confirmation, mobile ticket - Price checked on Viator: 2026-11-08 ## Reviews 4.89 from 44 ratings on Guidekin, Viator & Tripadvisor. 98% of ratings with a star breakdown are 4 or 5 stars: 43 of 44. - 5 stars: 41 (93%) - 4 stars: 2 (5%) - 3 stars: 0 (0%) - 2 stars: 1 (2%) - 1 star: 0 (0%) ## What's included - Official English Guide - traditional Japanese multi-course meal ＆Open Bar - Conversation time with the maiko(Geisha) - Ozashiki games with the maiko(Geisha) - Enjoy the maiko’s elegant dance up close - Two-shot photo with the maiko(Geisha) ## Not included - Oversize luggage - Bare feet - Transportation expenses from your home to the venue - No tips for maiko ## Schedule - Runs: daily - Departures: 18:00 - Schedule last checked: 2026-11-08 - These are published departures, not a live seat count; availability is confirmed at checkout. ## Cancellation For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time. ## Meeting point 【Access】 okazakian：Japan, 606-8344 Kyoto, Sakyo Ward, Okazaki Enshōjichō, 91-65 5 minutes on foot from Exit 1 of Higashiyama Station on the Subway Tozai Line 10 minutes on foot from Keihan Sanjo Station 20 minutes by taxi from JR Kyoto Station 10 minutes by taxi from Hankyu Kawaramachi Station Ends: back at the meeting point ## Good to know - Wheelchair accessible - Public transportation options are available nearby - Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap - Suitable for all physical fitness levels - 予約時に確認メールをお送りします ## Compared with other Geisha & Gion Tours | Tour | Price | Duration | Rating | Group | |---|---|---|---|---| | **This tour · #9 of 11** | €145 | 2h | 4.89 (44) | shared | | [Kyoto Gion Geisha Secrets - 5 Star Walking Tour & Kyoto Snack](/japan/kyoto/tours/kyoto-gion-geisha-secrets-5-star-walking-tour-kyoto-snack/?format=md) | €110 | 3h 30m | 4.98 (244) | shared | | [Maiko Dance and Tea Ceremony on a Noh Stage in Kyoto](/japan/kyoto/tours/maiko-dance-and-tea-ceremony-on-a-noh-stage-in-kyoto/?format=md) | €127 | 1h 30m | 4.99 (79) | private | | [The Art of Geisha Exclusive Show and Gion Walking Tour](/japan/kyoto/tours/the-art-of-geisha-exclusive-show-and-gion-walking-tour/?format=md) | €120 | 1h | 4.96 (149) | shared | Ranked #9 of 11 in Geisha & Gion Tours by Guidekin score (rating weighted by review volume).
