Peter is originally from Canada, but has settled in Kyoto for many years where he has studied traditional Japanese arts of Shodo (Calligraphy), Sumie (traditional painting), Kouta (singing), Nihon Buyou (dance), and Ikebana (flower arranging). 

Peter has a long history with the Geisha industry in Kyoto and has paid his dues over the years quite literally, as traditional Japanese culture experience such as the Geisha entertainment district comes with membership fees and traditional money gifts for special occasions. 

If you are in Kyoto seeking out background to Geisha culture, join one of Peter's 90 minute walking tours for general background (3,000 yen per person), or reserve a drinking party experience (50,000 yen per person and up), or a full dinner experience at a much higher price (more than 100,000 yen) for this unique and personal experience. I am so impressed by Peter's dedication to authenticity which comes across in his passion to help support the Geisha culture in Kyoto.
