Enjoy the unique atmosphere of Kyoto's Gion district at night on this small group walking tour!
This 3-hour tour will introduce you to the magic of Gion, Kyoto's famous geisha district, when lanterns light up the ancient alleyways. Accompanied by an experienced guide, you'll wander historic streets such as Hanamikoji, one of Kyoto's best-preserved, and visit iconic sites such as Yasaka Shrine.
As you stroll, you'll admire traditional architecture and historic buildings, while learning about the customs and history of this district. If you're lucky, you might even spot a geiko or maiko (geisha apprentice) on her way to a performance. Although not guaranteed, these encounters offer a rare glimpse into Japanese culture.
At the end of the tour, you'll be dropped off near Sanjo Ohashi Bridge, a perfect spot for one last photo.
