Experiență cu Maiko în Kyoto

I can see how this activity could disappoint. the night we went so it was perfect. but there are a lot of seats and if they were full it could have been disappointing. we paid 2200 pp extra on arrival to sit up front. 800 pp is second row. and third row is even less. otherwise you’re stuck to the last 3 rows of the room even if the place is not full. the dinner is traditional Japanese. I liked it but my kid did not. if you add the tea ceremony it will be served at the start of the dinner time. everyone watches it. even those who didn’t pay. but you’ll get your own tea set to participate. then they’ll bring out your dinner (those who did not book the tea ceremony add-on will be eating already). drinks are additional price. you don’t get even water with the meal. only about 3-4 people can be selected to play games. and the gift is a tiny self adhesive sticker with the Maiko’s name on it. the interpreter was good.

this was such a fantastic experience! loved meeting our maiko and listening to her answer our questions. highly recommend!

Maiko and team were very friendly. Learned a lot about the life of a Maiko and how she transitions to a Geiko (also known as Geisha in Tokyo region). Maiko danced for the group and also demonstrated tea preparation.

Für mich war die Veranstaltung sehr begeisternd - ich habe sehr weit vorne sitzen können, habe die Teezeremonie mitgemacht und hatte die Chance, gute Aufnahmen zu machen. Das Essen war gut und ausreichend. Der Host hat für mich verständlich gesprochen, sodass ich allem gut folgen konnte. Aber der größte Lob gehört der Meiko, die jeden Abschnitt der Veranstaltung sehr gut gestaltet hat. Klare Empfehlung!

such a great experience to meet a maiko. she showed how to make matcha. I've learned a lot from Q+A. she also danced and played games with us.

maiko was beautiful, her dances stunning. we could ask questions and my 12yo son got to play a game with her. I enjoyed lunch and you can buy drinks. I had a wine, my son had a coke. only downside was the venue. it was like sitting in a classroom. not very intimate or visually appealing.

it was a very affordable option to meet a geisha and to have the entire experience with a low budget. The only thing is that in our group there were some people that laughed and talk loud when they should be quiet to hear all the explanation, I really find it very disrespectful not only for the stuff but for the geisha and the rest of the group. the stuff were super patient and very respectful. the Maiko was very professional too, apart of the disrespectful people there, it was a great experience!

We learned a tremendous amount from the presentation. Maiko-san answered all of our questions and because we were a small group, we got to ask lots. Her dance performance was beautiful and playing games was fun! The Kaiseki dinner was simple but yummy. The room itself was the only drawback — felt rather institutional with fluorescent lighting and lacking ambiance.

it was great I did not cancell this event, although the time of two events conflicted. well organized, professional host and beautiful Maiko! Awesome experience of getting knowledge of Japanese culture.

We paid the extra for front row seats with the Maiko experience and it was definitely worth it, especially when considering the upgrade wasn’t very expensive. we had the lunch offer and it was nice and presented beautifully. would recommend
