Experience Programs in Tokyo

Mukojima geisha show and walk around the geisha district

Mukojima is the famous geisha district called Hanamachi (literally "flower town"), which is home to the largest number of geisha in Japan. You will enjoy "Hana no Ozashiki", a geisha show with fascinating songs and dances. After the show, government-certified English speaking guides will show you around the old downtown areas such as the district of geisha and high-class Japanese restaurants in Mukojima and the popular sightseeing spots in Asakusa, where the flavor of old Edo culture still remains.
