Try to schedule this in a warm day. It was blustery and cold and we stood in shadows for long periods being very cold. Manuel was very knowledgeable but I think he could have been more sensitive to older people’s needs. He offered a bathroom break at the beginning and again at a pharmacy at the end where we finally got to warm up and buy some souvenirs.

Nikki was fabulous! She took us all around the Gion district and gave us the history of the geisha in Kyoto! I recommend taking this tour to have a better understanding of this culture!

Detailed information and insights into the world of geiko and maiko. Being winter it got a little bit chilly as the sun went down, so dress warm.

It was very informative. Melanie did a great job of giving us the history and making it real with anecdotes and fun facts. Recommend. We did spot a Maiko and several geikos but they were in taxis. If you want to see them shows are put on in the evening.
