Country: Japan

02:00 hours
Description
Experience an exclusive Geisha(Maiko) encounter on a traditional historic stage (Noh stage). In a small group, enjoy photo sessions, playful Ozashiki games, and authentic Japnese Dinner with Open Bar.
Step into one of Kyoto's most exclusive and vanishing cultural worlds. With only about 50 Maikos and 150 Geishas remaining in all of Kyoto today, witnessing their artistry in person has become increasingly rare and precious. This is not a tourist show—it's an authentic encounter with a living tradition that has been passed down through centuries, normally reserved only for VIP guests and exclusive private banquets.
