What you can expect

Explore Gion, the centuries-old entertainment district of Kyoto, which is unique throughout the world for it's connection to the geisha. With your guide, learn about their history and customs with the chance of catching a glimpse of a few of the women in full costume.

Walk through the historic narrow streets , enjoy a night visit to a Shinto shrine, see a beautifully lit pagoda and more. Wander through the grounds of a Zen temple taking in the gentle calm. Learn more about the history and modern culture of the entertainment district from your guide.

We start the tour at our traveler lounge where you can enjoy a welcome drink while we give some background about the world of the geisha. From there we hit the road on a walking tour that takes close to 2hrs. At the end of the tour, we can help make suggestions for places to go for dinner after too!

This is a great tour to do on your first day in Kyoto to get a snapshot of the city and insights into the local culture. We are sure you will have a blast!
