Don't you have much time in KYOTO? No problem. We are really close to KYOTO station and this programme takes about 30 to 40 min at a reasonable price.
You can enjoy the essence of KYOTO in the programme.
Maiko and Matcha both represent KYOTO, and you can enjoy them at the same time.
You’ll enjoy:
tea ceremony with Maiko
Maiko will show you how to make matcha tea and tell you how to do. Then you will make your own tea by yourself. We serve little Japanese sweets called “Ohigashi” with the tea.
Q&A Session
This is a highlight of the programme. You won’t just see a Maiko—you’ll get to know her world.
Ask questions directly and gain insight into her daily life.
You’ll feel as if you’ve stepped into a hidden world.
Photo Opportunity
Take a commemorative photo right beside Maiko.
As a special gift, she’ll present you with a lucky charm called a Senjyafuda.
Please note that the venue is not an “ochaya” or a traditional Japanese house. It is located in a building, but the place offers a relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff. No special preparation is required, and you are welcome to join without any concerns.
Depending on the situation, we may invite Geiko instead of Maiko.
This might be held with people who are having lunch or dinner.
