Hi, Nice to meet you. My name is Hide, I'm new to this platform. I'm local expert in Kansai area (Kyoto, Nara and Osaka). I'm originally from Osaka and have settled down in Kyoto for 7 years after I traveled around the world for 5 years. After returning to Japan, I worked in the tourism industry and started working as a guide for two years. I enjoy not only sharing my knowledge but also meeting new people from all over the world. I love soaking that up as I stroll through neighborhoods, then sit down to enjoy it all with a drink of my coffee. I like to visit the local festivals in Kyoto, Osaka, and even farther to Shiga. Maybe after a couple of years, you can find me wearing traditional old Japanese men's style clothes, carrying wood Yamaboko at the Gion festival. We will arrange an itinerary based on your interests, from major tourist attractions to lesser-known and quieter ones. Also, I can arrange some special experiences such as samurai ninja martial arts, private photo session, and tea ceremony or dinner with Geisha. If you want to explore the Kyoto or Kansai area with me please feel free to contact me. I hope I get the chance to show you around one of the most beautiful cities in Japan. I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Overview of your Kyoto tour

This is a 3-4 hours private dinner with a Geisha or Maiko (2 hours) in an authentic Japanese restaurant with good quality of Omakase. You will enjoy the nice food and the hospitality of Geisha (dancing, playing game, and chatting). Foods are included in the tour price, and the menue can be upgraded and flexible based on your food diet or allergy. Drinks are an additional charge. Additional person will cost about ¥30000. Extra Geisha or Maiko will cost about ¥50000. I need to double check the restaurant and Geisha availability so it might take 2-3 days to confirm your booking after the request.
