Kyoto Geisha

Kyoto’s maiko and geiko (Kyoto words for geisha) are a window into Japan’s traditional culture. I have good connections with several geisha houses and I can arrange geisha entertainment and geisha district tours, as well as geisha photo shoots and other geisha events and services.

The easiest way to experience geisha entertainment is for us to arrange a meal for you at an exclusive kaiseki (Japanese haute cuisine) restaurant in the company of a geiko or maiko. We will make all the arrangements and supply an interpreter so that you can communicate freely. You may be surprised at how reasonable the total fee for such an evening is. For more details, email me at

Please allow me to help you enter the magical world of Kyoto’s maiko and geiko.
