In this fun experience, explore downtown Kyoto accompanied by a maiko as your own personal guide. Kyoto’s central downtown area is a charming mix of Kyo-machiya townhouses, shotengai shopping streets, restaurants and cafes, historic sites and temples all located in the one compact area best explored by foot. With your maiko guide, head down a tiny laneway or say a pray at a neighborhood shrine, taking photos as you go. Then stop at one of Kyoto’s celebrated cafes for afternoon tea with your new-found maiko friend.
