Description complète

Cette expérience de 2 heures se déroule au départ de Kyoto, construite autour de Gion, Sanctuaire Yasaka et Nene no Michi. Votre place est retenue auprès de l'opérateur avant que nous considérions votre réservation comme définitive.

Gion est le quartier historique de divertissement de Kyoto, les rues de maisons machiya en bois autour de Hanamikoji où les geiko et maiko du district de Gion Kobu travaillent encore. Ce sont des professionnelles en route vers des engagements, pas des artistes de rue, et Kyoto a interdit la photographie dans les ruelles privées ; une promenade du soir avec un guide qui explique le système ochaya est la façon respectueuse de voir cela. Les sessions de cérémonie du thé à Gion enseignent la forme de base de la préparation du matcha en une heure. La location de kimono pour une journée, avec habillage et coiffure, est une activité établie dans le quartier et est bien accueillie plutôt que mal perçue.

Le prix comprend guide, aperçus historiques sur le sanctuaire Yasaka et photos pendant la visite. Tout ce qui est inclus est listé en entier sur cette page ; si quelque chose ne figure pas dans cette liste, considérez que ce n’est pas compris dans le prix.

Starbucks Coffee - Kyoto Gion Hotel. Nous avons besoin d'au moins un jour de préavis et nous confirmons la date avant de considérer votre réservation comme définitive. Si la date ne peut pas être confirmée, nous vous le disons et vous remboursons plutôt que de vous laisser attendre.

William was an excellent guide, he had a great understanding of everything along with being able to answer all of the questions thrown at him. He made the entire experience feel more like going out with a friend, he even personally guided us to a brilliant ramen place afterwards. 10/10 it was pretty Zen.

The walking tour was perfect. I highly recommend it for anyone visiting Kyoto. Pedro is an amazing guide and we learned a lot about Japan culture, history and Gion's district. We could also ask any questions about Japan during the tour.

We had a truly fantastic tour with William and Akira (trainee). I would highly recommend them as guides, as we saw so much—even extra sights; it felt almost like a private tour. They were very friendly and approachable. We really enjoyed the experience; we did the tour after dark, but we plan to walk it again in daylight now, given all the stories and information we heard. Once again, a huge thank you for a wonderful evening!

Malu contacted us before the tour to provide a link to the convenient meeting spot. She gathered the group of 11 tourists and took us through the streets of Gion, explaining the role of Geishas and their rigorous training in Kyoto. She was very knowledgeable and answered many questions about life in Japan. She walked the group through areas touching on Shrines and Temples and some of the history of Kyoto which has survived over time and retained many of its historic buildings. It was an informative and pleasant tour, Malu was a wonderful and patient guide. Be sure to walk close to her in order

Not in the private lanes of Gion, where Kyoto has banned photography, and not close up anywhere: a maiko on the street is on her way to work. Your guide will say where a photograph is acceptable. Tea ceremony and kimono sessions include photographs as part of the session.
We confirm your booking with the operator before we treat it as final, and we need at least one day's notice. Once it is confirmed you get the meeting point, the time and a contact number for the day. If the operator cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Late March to early April for cherry blossom, or mid-to-late November for peak autumn foliage. Kyoto sits in a basin and runs hotter in summer and colder in winter than Tokyo, even at a similar latitude. Full month-by-month figures are in our best time to visit Kyoto guide.
Kyoto never built an extensive subway — just two lines (Karasuma and Tozai) — so the city bus network does most of the work, especially for Higashiyama, Kinkaku-ji and Ginkakuji. Fushimi Inari and Arashiyama are best reached by JR rail instead. See getting around Kyoto.
Three days covers the essentials well: a day for Higashiyama and Gion, a day for Arashiyama and Kinkaku-ji, and a day for Fushimi Inari plus a Nara or Uji day trip. Our 3-day Kyoto itinerary has the full route with timing.
Arrive by 6:30-7am — the shrine is open 24/7 and free, and most visitors only walk the first 20-30 minutes anyway. Past that point the crowds thin out fast. Full hike details in our Fushimi Inari guide.
Yes — it's a public path with no entrance fee and no set hours. The trade-off is that it gets shoulder-to-shoulder by mid-morning; arrive before 8am for a nearly empty walk. See the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest guide.
Kyoto restricts photography on certain private alleys in Gion after complaints about tourists chasing and blocking geiko and maiko, with fines for violators. Public streets like Hanamikoji-dori remain open, but never chase, touch or block a real geiko/maiko anywhere. Full etiquette in our Gion geisha district guide.
Yudofu (simmered tofu, best near Nanzen-ji or Arashiyama), kaiseki and shojin ryori temple cuisine, and Nishiki Market's stalls of tako tamago and fresh yuba. Uji, just south of the city, is one of Japan's top matcha-growing regions. See the Kyoto food guide.
