Kyoto Special Experience with Geiko at Cherry-blossom Festival
Enjoy MIYAKO ODORI dancing show , and visit the FushimiInari Taisha, and dining Kaiseki-style cuisine with Geiko.
This is a four-day trip in April, during the magnificent cherry blossom season, to offer you with the ultimate Kyoto experience. The adventure will begin in the old capital, Kyoto, after a day of sightseeing in Tokyo.
First activity in Kyoto will be seeing the MIYAKO ODORI show, where a number of geiko and maiko of Gion perform together beautiful dances on stage. It is a seasonal event signaling the advent of spring season, popular since 1872. We have arranged one of the best seats that come with traditional matcha tea service by a geiko, followed by what will be another special geiko entertainment at Maruyama, a renowned ryotei in Gion, for your dinner.
On the third day, you will visit the world heritage listed temple, Kinkaku-ji, also Ryoan-ji, if time allows. The tour then takes you on a visit to Fushimi Inari Taisha, one of the most popular tourist sights in Kyoto among overseas visitors also known as a “spiritual power spot”. Dinner will be at a renowned restaurant, where you will enjoy some meat cuisine such as shabu shabu or beefsteak. Please enjoy in the breathtakingly beautiful and graceful atmosphere of the old capitol, Kyoto.
