1 Hour Geisha Show & Kitano Tenmangu Shrine with Geisha in Kyoto

Watch a real Maiko, an apprentice Geisha, perform up close. With only about 40 Maikos left in Kyoto, seeing one is a rare and special experience. Kyoto is the only place where you can experience the authentic world of Geisha—don’t miss this chance!

To begin the show, the Maiko will perform a traditional dance lasting around 10 minutes, the usual length of most Maiko performances. After 2 dances (each about 5 minutes), there will be time for a Q&A, photo-taking, and a chance to play a traditional Japanese game with her.

IMPORTANT: In Geisha/Maiko culture, performances are intentionally short to preserve the art’s exclusivity and grace. Please note that the Maiko will not be performing continuously for one hour.

Please note the following:

1. No outside food or drinks

2. Socks are required

3. Do not leave during the show

4. Set your phone to Do Not Disturb

Please do not be late. We cannot accept late guests.

Any damages caused to the property will be funded by the guest
