The capricious Gion district is as mythical as the geishas who have been living in the area for centuries.

Follow a former geisha hostess through Kyoto’s renowned entertainment district, as the area sheds its day-time bustle, and adopts a more mysterious charm once the sun sets.

Like a dream shimmering under the orange glow of street lanterns, visit snack bars, hostess clubs, and karaoke bars with your personal guide. Be introduced to the rules and etiquettes one should observe at these venues. 

Interact with the interesting characters who are frequent patrons, and transcend cultural barriers to fully immerse yourself in the peculiarities of local experience.
