PRIVATE TOUR - KYOTO'S OLD TOWN OF GION
ABOUT YOUR TOUR
We will take you for a stroll through the most beautiful part of Kyoto to see some of the most picturesque streets of the Gion district and the Higashiyama district. The tour takes around 2hrs to complete and includes around 5km of walking. Our tour starts at our office on the 2nd floor where we start with a brief slideshow to introduce the life of the geisha! If we are lucky you might see a Geisha or Maiko on their way to an early appointment. We also take a stroll through a couple of shinto shrines and one zen temple grounds where we can briefly chat about how those faiths affect daily life in Japan and give you an introduction to the spiritual world of Japan.
