What you can expect

Kyoto is famed for its shrines and temples, which are full of countless unique stories that will astonish you, making you fall in love with and connect yourself to their ancient history. I am deeply fascinated by the living traditions called Geisha or Geiko hidden behind the sliding doors of Gion. The mysterious world of Geisha can seem exclusive and challenging to discover, so on my experience we will take tea break, talking with Maiko, Geisha apprentice and I will reveal the entertainers who adhere to this traditional lifestyle, their history, rituals, and nuances of the art-form.
・At the beginning part we will discuss the living traditions, their lifestyle and history.
・We would announce like “Ladies and gentle men…” and she, Maiko will show up. First we will watch her dancing.
・Then we will talk with and ask her questions, having a cup of tea.
