One of the best experiences I have ever had in Japan

Published on Apr, 2025

One of the best experiences I have ever had in Japan. It was wonderful. My guide Yuri was excellent, and I had an opportunity to get to know one of the Geishas, playing games, taking photos and having great fun. There is also a performance with all of the Geishas, which is a rare opportunity to witness, and all were happy for me to take their portraits. Atami is a great discovery, and it will not take you long to come down from Tokyo. I wholeheartedly recommend it.

Great experience

Published on Aug, 2024

I had a great experience in Atami, thanks to Yuri, the guide, and this tour she perfectly organised. The tour started with some explanations, followed by the Geisha show. I was the only foreigner in the room. I could then make as many pictures as I wanted. I had the chance to exchange with Geishas in a complete private room, to listen to music and to play. I will never forget this.
