Experience Details

Easily recognizable and highly regarded, geisha are a famous aspect of Japanese culture, but watching them perform remains an exclusive affair. While you would typically need someone’s referral to attend geisha shows in Japan, in this one-time event, you get to pull the curtain on their secluded world and relish in their talents. Firstly, you will watch 15 kimono-clad geisha sing, dance, and play shamisen and taiko drums. Get ready to get carried away by their unique performance! Rigorously trained in traditional Japanese arts, their whimsical and captivating movements and gracious hospitality have earned geisha worldwide admiration. After the show, geisha will go around the tables, giving you a rare chance to interact with them directly while you dig into a kaiseki bento box lunch with your preferred drink in hand. Kaiseki is a refined assortment of several dishes with colorful ingredients and delicate flavors. Eat, drink, and discover the fascinating lore of geisha in this rare, one-in-a-lifetime experience! Kagurazaka, a hip area in central Tokyo famous for its tranquil atmosphere and European-inspired restaurants, is one of Tokyo’s few geisha districts and is where this particular group of geisha trains and performs. This event will take place at a ceremony and event hall in a shrine in Kagurazaka.
