Meet your guide in the Gion district and begin your walking tour. Stroll along the Shirakawa River, a picturesque area with cobblestone streets, willow trees, and traditional townhouses. If you're lucky, you might even spot a maiko (apprentice geisha) walking by.

Next, head to Hanamikoji Street, a famous street lined with teahouses and restaurants where the geisha culture is still very much alive. As night falls, the street becomes even more enchanting with its softly glowing lanterns.

Finally, attend a geisha show at the Gion Kobu Kaburenjo Theater. Watch traditional dances and experience the art of Japanese hospitality up close.
