Emma was amazing. Very knowledgeable about the history of the area, as well as Japanese literature and culture. It was a delight to walk Gion and see Geisha, Maiko, and the beautiful and historic buildings. We ended the evening with an exceptional meal at a local Kaiseki restaurant, where the service can only be described as fantastic. The food was well presented and flavorful, and Emma ensured communicated with the staff at each course and explained what we were eating, as well as how to traditionally enjoy it. The other members of our tour all found Emma to be knowledgeable, affable, and an excellent guide.
Enjoy this tour, and ask for Emma!

We enjoyed this tour on our magical last night in Japan, we had a really memorable time with Yoshi! She showed us the Gion area and streets across the river at sunset. We snacked our way along as we explored the quaint shops. Yoshi was a very personable guide with a warm nature. In a very approachable and inviting style, she taught us about Japanese culture and the language, we just adored her by the end of the tour! Yoshi made great selections for food as well. Really interesting tour, delicious food, overall exceptional quality. Exploring Kyoto with delicious treats was amazing! Arigatou!!!

Gion Tour with Kaiseki Meal in Kyoto at Night

The Kyoto Gion tour was thoroughly enjoyable. Our guides Hiroe and Agustin took us for a lovely walk around Gion and Pontocho - very pleasant and informative. We stopped en route to have sweets, but the highlight was the kaiseki dinner we ate with our guides at Yoshina. The food was served in a beautiful private room along the river - wonderful food too! Best of all was the conversations we had during the tour with like minded travelers. We were able to learn a lot about Kyoto and Japan/Japanese culture. This experience was a fantastic way to enjoy an evening in Kyoto, definitely unique!

One of the things on my Japan bucklist was to learn more about Japanese geisha so I booked this tour in the main geisha district - I thought it would be about right. On the tour we saw 3 Maiko and it was amazing! Our guide, Lauren, was great and shared so much information about Japanese culture, history, and tradition. The food was awesome and it was great to interact with other people in the group. Very rewarding - I can't recommend it highly enough, thanks for the tour Lauren!

Creativity and nature blend seamlessly in the gorgeous city of Kyoto. It’s here in the cultural capital of Japan that beauty in nature and appreciation of the arts and craftsmanship has of course extended through to Kyoto’s iconic cuisine. One of the best ways to experience the true food of Kyoto is by booking one of our fantastic Kyoto dining experiences. With a range of iconic and unique restaurants, you can enjoy a wonderful dining experience to suit your tastes.
Our dining experiences in Kyoto can cater to dietary restrictions too, so you can sit back and enjoy the food and the atmosphere to the fullest, no matter what your food preferences. Using colorful, locally-grown produce to create beautiful dishes in reference to the seasons, Kyoto’s local cuisine, known as Kyo Ryori, is stunning and full of flavor. Much of Kyoto’s delicious cuisine focuses on vegetable elements, meaning that many of our Kyoto dining experiences are easily vegan and vegetarian-friendly, too. If you have ever wanted to try Kaiseki Ryori (Japan’s elaborate banquet-style meal) or Buddhist cuisine (Shojin Ryori) book one of our Kyoto dining experiences for a truly amazing meal! There is something for everyone, including luxury fine dining establishments and casual, cozy restaurants specializing in Kyoto cuisine.
