Wear Kimono in Asakusa with a Rental Dress Up Experience in Tokyo

Awesome experience!!

Reviewed by: Esther Feng

Really felt like I was part of the Japanese culture!! They let you pick out the kimono and then help style your hair in a really pretty way to match your kimono with a cute hair accessory :) definitely would try again next time I'm in japan

Japanese Plastic Food Sample Art Experience in Tokyo

Fantastic

Reviewed by: Tessa

After spending a minth in japan this was one of my favourite things to do. I would definitely reccomend this activity for any tourists. The owners were absolutely lovely, gave us a brief history on food models and then we got into the activity. We made mini parfait photo clips and got to choose 5 toppings before assembling everything. I would love to do this again if i was back in tokyo!

Japanese Plastic Food Sample Art Experience in Tokyo

Plastic Food Workshop

Reviewed by: Taylor

This was a fun and unique experience I don't think I would get the chance to try anywhere else. The staff's English was no problem to understand, and the mixture of history within the workshop was interesting as well. Plastic food goods can be found all over Japan, including being sold as souvenirs at certain stores, so having the opportunity to make your own is a lot more memorable than buying one in a shop!

江戸切子体験 十数種のグラスと数十もの柄サンプルから選べる　講座付きのプランもあり＜浅草駅 徒歩３分！創吉浅草店＞

I had my first experience with Edo Kiriko glass in Asakusa! 浅草で江戸切子ガラスを初体験！

Reviewed by: 50代女性

It took about an hour and a half to create the original glass. It's within a 5-minute walk from Asakusa Station, making it convenient to use during your sightseeing in Asakusa.

First, you choose your favorite glass, consult with the instructor to decide on the design, and then draw a sketch. I opted for deep lines instead of traditional patterns. After practicing the basic cuts, it was time for the real thing! With guidance, I cautiously placed the glass against the rotating blade. Gradually, I learned how to control the pressure and carve deeper, but cutting long lines straight was challenging. After several attempts, I completed it.

It's a great experience, and you get to take the glass home as a souvenir or keepsake. Next time, I want to try traditional patterns as well.

約1時間半でオリジナルグラスが出来ました。
浅草駅から徒歩5分圏内。浅草観光の空き時間にも利用できます。

まずは好きなグラスを選び、先生と相談しながらデザインを決め、下絵を書きます。
私は伝統的な柄ではなく、深めのラインのみを選択しました。
基本のカットを練習してから、いざ本番！
手ほどきを受けて回転する刃に恐る恐るグラスをあてます。
少しずつ力加減が分かり深く彫れるようになりましたが、長めのラインを真っ直ぐにカットするのが難しい。何回か繰り返して完成。
体験が出来て、グラスを持ち帰れるので、お土産や記念になります。
次回は伝統的な模様にも挑戦したいと思います。

Wear Kimono in Asakusa with a Rental Dress Up Experience in Tokyo

Explored Asakusa and Senso-ji Temple in a Kimono!

Reviewed by: Anna

Newfound respect for the ladies who had to wear kimonos on a daily basis back in the day! I didn't know the prep was so tedious. It was both surprisingly fun and tiring to walk in a kimono. We ate street food, shopped around Orange St and walked to Senso-ji Temple while we were wearing them. We were lucky that the place where we rented it from had actual silk kimonos instead of polyester because it was a very hot Sunday afternoon. Would recommend this experience to first time Tokyo visitors!

Maiko Dance with Dinner & Kyoto Night View Tour by KYOTO Sightseeing“OKOSHI”Bus

Ok but not really tourist oriented

Reviewed by: All

You will see a maiko and get dinner for a significantly lower price then most tours that do this.... but honestly I would go to geisha corner and just watch the show there and not join this tour if you were to ask me again. This is as the tour is in Japanese- I was prepared for this and did not mind it but still.... on the bus you are given a English hearing guide so you can understand and they point out different buildings as you drive but it is pretty dark throughout the tour so you can't really see so much. The food was not tourist friendly, it was authentic Kyoto cuisine and it looked nice but there were very weird looking dishes with no English explanation.... so I did not eat 2/3 of it because I did not want to get sick with ingredients my body cannot handle (we are talking very strange unidentifiable ingredients). The maiko comes and does 2 dances, then you can take a picture with her and then she answers questions in Japanese. So the whole interaction with her is about 15 minutes long tops. Finally the gardens in the location were nice but overall not worth the 60 pounds just go to geisha corner and treat yourself to fancy nice dinner (that you can eat).

乗合屋形船 お台場・スカイツリー周遊コース 季節のお料理＆飲み放題付＜蔵前発＞by船宿 釣新

I am very satisfied with the delicious food and hospitality! 美味しい料理とおもてなしに大満足です！

Reviewed by: いずみん

We were taken care of by your establishment with a group of nine colleagues visiting from overseas. One person couldn't eat raw food, and another was vegetarian, so after consulting in advance, we were provided with roast beef instead of sashimi and fresh vegetable tempura for the vegetarian staff. We are truly grateful for that.

Of course, the sashimi, crab, and tempura were all excellent, but the deliciousness of the clam rice and miso soup served at the end was truly moving! Thank you for the heartfelt and delicious meal.

We will definitely use your services again!

海外から来ていた同僚と一緒に9名でお世話になりました。１人が生ものがNG、１人がベジタリアンのため事前に相談したところ、刺身の代わりにローストビーフ、ベジタリアンのスタッフには新鮮な野菜の天ぷらをご用意いただき、本当に感謝です。

Reviewed by: kiki

As the reviews said, the food was delicious, and the staff were very kind. What surprised me the most was that the neighboring table had place cards and appetizers prepared, but it seemed they were canceled and did not board. However, every time a type of tempura was served, it was also plated for that table. My Korean friends who came with me were impressed by this as well. We had a great time throughout our visit.

口コミ通りお料理も美味しく、従業員の方もとても親切でした。何より驚いたのはお隣のテーブル席に席札や前菜などの用意がされていましたがキャンセルされた様で乗船されなかったのですが一種類ずつ天ぷらがあがる度にそちらへのテーブルにも盛り付けられていた事です。一緒に行った韓国のお友達夫婦もこれには感心していました。終始楽しく過ごせました。

Kimono Dress-up

Reviewed by: Sheila

I didn't enjoy this tour. I didn't expect that I had to strip off my clothes in a space (with just a cloth as a door) with other strangers. Wearing the kimono was uncomfortable. It was heavy and complicated to wear (and take off). That particular day was also hot, so I was all sweaty and uneasy while walking outside. Good thing about this tour was the friendly staff at the Sakura Photo Studio.

Traditional Yakatabune River Cruise with Lunch or Dinner in Tokyo

Dazzled

Reviewed by: Sentimental Tamanegi

A good way to enjoy the Tokyo cityscape at night. The food was delicious and came in generous amounts. Vegetarians and people who are not a fan of raw fish don't need to worry either, as the tour provides alternatives. As for drinks, there weren't a lot of choices, but beer and sake were on the menu, so no complaints. The guide spoke purely in Japanese, but I believe non-Japanese speakers can enjoy the tour regardless.

This tour is perhaps best enjoyed with a group of friends or coworkers.

Despite everything being in Japanese, the meal, view, entire atmosphere was super! Perfect TGIF moment with fellow coworkers. At first I was worried we would be plastered on the floor like other houseboats, but this one had chairs. Got comfy immediately and began eating and drinking non-stop! The groups we shared the boat with were pretty small and was spacious enough for us to move around inside and outside of the boat.
