Kyoto Geisha Show Cultureel Uur met een leerling geisha, Maiko
Beschrijving
Kyoto is beroemd om zijn heiligdommen en tempels – heiligdommen van verhalen die verwondering oproepen en uw verbinding met eeuwenlange cultuur verdiepen. Onder deze levende tradities is de verfijnde wereld van de Geisha. Vaak als privé en ongrijpbaar ervaren, kan het moeilijk voelen om te benaderen. In deze ervaring openen we die deur met duidelijkheid en zorg : een beknopt podiumoptreden gevolgd door elegant gesprek, fototijd en een open Q&A. Wat te verwachten (90 minuten totaal) Culturele inleiding (15 - 20min) : Een door Experts geleide talk over de levende tradities – rollen en training, dagelijks leven, etiquette en de evolutie van Geisha-kunsten. Geisha Show (10 - 15 min) : “Dames en heren...” Maiko betreedt en voert een traditionele dans uit, vergezeld van een korte uitleg van het verhaal en de gebaren. Gesprek, foto's & Q&A (restant) : Geniet van een ongehaaste dialoog met Maiko. Stel doordachte vragen, maak foto's en waardeer de nuances van kostuum, beweging en ritueel.

This was a really unique, special experience for us. Tourists don't always get the opportunity to speak with real maiko or geisha, but this event offered us the chance to speak with her authentically about her life, skills, and work. Our tour guide met us in advance of the tea house, so we were able to ask him any questions about protocol. He also served as our interpreter. While you may ask if you are allowed to take photos of the maiko, we were asked to not share any identifying photos online, to protect the privacy of the maiko.
Very friendly guide with great knowledge, The maiko was very friendly and beautiful, although she didn't speak English the guide translated. Fabulous experience.
One of the best tours we have experienced. Highly recommend, the guide was professional and highly knowledgeable. I can safely say no one will be disappointed with this experience. Worth the expense…BOOK IT!!
That was a highlight of the Japan trip! Unique experience! Learned a lot about geisha culture! Would definitely recommend!
We met at the front of a shrine and our tour guide took us to the Geisha school and gave us information on geisha/geiko/maiko training. Then we walked a short way to the tea house. It was very pretty. We met the Maiko who performed two dances for us. Then we were able to chat with her for a while. The best surprise was she is going to debut as a full Geisha at the end of the year. This was a wonderful experience.
Fantastic walking tour in the geisha district of Gion and show in a tea house with a maiko, apprentice geisha We asked questions to the maiko who danced for us two songs Great tour with Ken , he explained so many things and was great in English
Once in a lifetime opportunity to be able to experience. Our guide was great at balancing being formal for the Maiko as well as making us feel comfortable and informed. The dances the Maiko performed were beautiful, and we had plenty of time to ask questions and enjoy tea.
What an amazing experience! After a short walk around the local area we went to a cafe and met with a lovely Maiko. She answered our questions about her training and the lifestyle. We had two very beautiful dances and enjoyed a drink. The matcha latte was delicious. The maiko was very graceful and sweet. We had some lovely photos with her to remember our special time in Kyoto.
This is my 4th trip to Kyoto and of all my experiences this by far is the most memorable! The Maiko’s performance was excellent! The exquisite detail of her kimono and painted features combined with her graceful movements convinced me that I was witnessing something special. Supporting the performance was the location which helped me think I was back in time. The experience also allowed us to ask questions to the Maiko which elevated our appreciation of the Maiko’s dedication to her art. As we walked back to our meeting place, we were accompanied by the Maiko. It was like walking with a celebrity and we felt honored by her kindness in walking with us. A special thank you to our guide and interpreter who was very friendly and kind. I highly recommend this experience if you’re able to do it!! A must do!!
We had an amazing tour guide named Saya, she was incredibly knowledgable, friendly and helped with our holiday recommendations. She was a great support in translating for the Maiko. This was such a highlight of the trip for our family to meet with the Maiko who was friendly, engaging and sharing with her story and experiences. Plus she did two beautiful Geisha dances. Loved everything about this trip, Saya's support and a special meeting with a beautiful Maiko. Thank you again.
