Kyoto’s historic geisha district, where tradition still thrives. As you wander past wooden machiya houses, your guide will go beyond surface-level explanations to share the real stories behind geiko and maiko culture—far from the clichés found in many tours.
Then pause for a tasting of matcha or a seasonal Japanese sweet in a local setting. More than just a refreshment, this stop explores the cultural importance of tea and sweets in Kyoto’s daily life and hospitality traditions. -
