Question:
I am travelling to Japan in December and want to have a tea ceremony experience. I was wondering where i can have a tea ceremony and performance with a gesiha/maiko in japan? Will the Gion District be performing? If not where can i go?
Answer:
Geisha and maiko are not people who hold a tea ceremony.
Tea ceremonies are held by a tea master.
This is a list of places where you can experience a tea ceremony as a visitor in Kyoto. It does not have to be in Gion because you can go to other places by train.

If you do not read Japanese, this is one of them in English.
