What sets this experience apart is the chance to connect with Kyoto’s traditions in a hands-on, personal way. Rather than just observing, you’ll actively create something meaningful — a fragrant incense pouch using real Japanese scents, guided by a local shopkeeper with deep knowledge of the craft. The setting is a long-standing souvenir shop in a historic area near Kiyomizu Temple, not a touristy workshop. Before the activity, we’ll take a short walk through peaceful streets and hidden shrines, where I’ll share stories and cultural background that give context to the incense and Kyoto itself.

Noh, considered one of the oldest performing arts in the world, has been captivating audiences since the end 14th century. At the heart of its unique sound is the Kotsuzumi, a small, hourglass shaped shoulder drum that plays a vital role in shaping the rhythms and atmosphere of the performance. Crafted from cherry wood with black lacquer and gold accents, the drum features horse skin drumheads held in place by hemp cords. The player sits with the drum on their left shoulder, adjusting its pitch by squeezing and releasing the cords while striking the drum with the right hand.

Kyoto Gion Geisha District Walking Tour - The Stories of Geisha

Jim_G, Mar 2026

Fascinating tour charting the history of Gaishe in Kyoto!

Danny enthusiastically shared a fascinating history of Gaishe in Kyoto from its beginnings to the present day and liked key moments and traditions to sites we visited during the tour. It was particularly interesting to know the life of a Gaishe today and how to tell a real Gaishe from the hoards of fakes! I highly recommend this tour!

Kyoto Tea Ceremony with Kimono near Imamiya Jinjya Shrine

Khristen_B, Mar 2026

Very fun and educational experience!

Walk in with an open and relaxed mind. You will get undressed and then dressed up by the very sweet ladies, in a very respectful and organized way. For younger children the tea ceremony requires some self-control but they don’t mind a few laughs and jokes as long as you are still respectful of the ceremony. The best part is getting dressed up, of course! There is a beautiful selection of hand-embellished kimono and obj silks, and they do the girls’ hair with a variety of hair adornments. My 11-year-old son got to wear a gorgeous “shogun” style silk outfit and was feeling the power. The ceremony is interesting and educational, and they keep it fun by allowing a few guests to prepare the tea. At the end the ladies gave my son a box of origami frogs, which was very sweet!

Although it is very clear in the instructions, it’s a good reminder to everyone that transportation to all of these locations is not included in the price and could add up, depending on how many family members are traveling. Chihiro was an excellent guide, very pleasant and personable. It was great to spend the day with her and learn about her life and all of the attractions.

Nara Morning Tour

Shin was a wonderful guide. He was very friendly and great to just talk to. He gave us good information about Nara. Him being from the area made it more personal. This is a good trip to take. If you don’t feel comfortable making the trip on your own. I suggest doing the early morning tour so you beat most of the large crowds. He will guide you back to the train station and make sure that you get on the correct train back to Kyoto.

Ramen Cooking Class at Ramen Factory in Kyoto

Get ready to roll and Ramen…

A MUST do for all ages. From start to finish you are taught the process in a fun, clear and enjoyable fashion. There is nothing better than making your own noodles and soup from scratch and also given some “artistic” freedom to make it truly your own. The staff is incredibly kind, engaging and fun. We loved every minute of it, especially getting to eat our own creations.

Unique, amazing experience in Kyoto.

Amazing experience! More than I expected, our tour guide Soichiro was very personable and friendly. The Maiko was very friendly as well and answered many questions, with a translator. The dance was beautiful and the game we played after very fun. We were surprised after that we went to visit a shrine guided by the Maiko which was the cherry on top. Truly amazing experience and I highly recommend it.

Best tour we had in Japan.

We toured Kyoto with Mr. Fuji and it was our favorite tour of our entire trip to Japan. He was incredibly knowledgeable, funny and kind. He worked with our group ages 17 to 83 and was patient and understanding. We toured all over Kyoto but also learned about the history of Japan, religion, and life in Japan today.
