It was a great experience, my mum loved it!! I am glad our booking was early as by the time we came back it was a little but hectic. Also, they need to put signs out or something more visual out so people can find the shop. We caught a cab, as we were running late, but if we caught public transport we would be really lost.

The venue didn't allow people to see both dances by the Maiko. The food and staff were excellent but the room was an odd shape that blocked people eating from seeing part of the dance

I participated with seven classmates from high school. The tempura was freshly fried and delicious. The restroom was small and old, but it was clean and comfortable. It was the perfect time for cherry blossom viewing, with the sakura in full bloom. If we could have stopped at a good photo spot, it would have been five stars.

I made a reservation for a kimono experience that was a must-do for my relatives visiting Japan for the first time from the UK. On the day of the experience, I requested a last-minute change to the reservation time, and they were very flexible in accommodating me, which was a great help. It was quite crowded due to Golden Week, but the staff were efficient, and the dressing and hair styling were completed without much waiting.
Even with the most basic plan, there were more kimono options to choose from than I expected, so you’re sure to find a favorite. My relative chose a white kimono with floral patterns. While exploring Asakusa, many people complimented her with "cute!" and "Awesome!", and she seemed very happy.
I’m really glad that my important relative enjoyed it so much. If there’s another opportunity, I would love to do this again.
UKから親戚が初来日ということで、絶対に外せない着物体験を予約。当日急遽予約時間の変更をお願いしましたが、フレキシブルに対応いただきとても助かりました。GWのためかなり混みあっていましたが、スタッフの皆さん手際がよく、さほど待つこともなく着付け・ヘアメイクが終了。
一番安いベーシックプランでも思ったより選べる着物が多く、お気に入りの一枚がきっと見つかるでしょう。親戚は白色×花柄を選択。浅草散策では色々な方に「かわいい!」「Awesome!」と声をかけてもらえ、嬉しそうでした。
大切な親戚にとても喜んでもらえて本当に良かったです。また機会がありましたら宜しくお願いします。

I participated because my child wanted to make something. It's not a large group, and the staff members accompany each group, so it's suitable for small children. It's simple, so adults seem to enjoy making things like lettuce or tempura more.

We booked the private Maiko dinner to end our day long tour of beautiful Kyoto. What a wonderful experience. We were escorted to a private tea house where we were warmly met and welcomed. We were placed in a beautiful room with tatami seating and lovely Japanese screens. This was booked as a completely private experience which made this all the more special. We were soon met by a lovely Maiko who entertained us with three lovely dances. Just gorgeous. Following her performance, she joined us in conversation while we enjoyed a most delicious authentic kaiseki dinner and sake! The two hours went by all too fast! Via our private guide who served as our interpreter, we all enjoyed the company of this poised young lady. She embodied Japanese culture at its best! This was truly a one-of-a-kind experience; definitely the highlight of our trip to Japan. This opportunity should not be missed!

Fun-filled two hours learning how to assemble a bowl of Japanese raman noodles food sample. The instructor Mr Saito is very friendly and helpful. We talked half in English and Japanese (my broken Japanese simply makes the class even more funnier.)
Really realistic food sample. All semi-finished parts and tools are well-prepared waiting for me when I arrived at the workshop.
Good for children to adults, in particular for those who would like to have some interactive hands-on experience.

I thought it was great that you could have a drink before the performance and that there was an easy-to-understand explanation before the kyogen, making it enjoyable and accessible for beginners. However, while I found the explanation part interesting, it seemed a bit noisy for my companion, who isn't familiar with contemporary theater. It's a matter of personal preference, I suppose.
開演前に一杯呑むことができたり、狂言の前にわかりやすい説明があったり、初心者にとって楽しみやすい、親しみやすい志向がよかったと思います。
ただ、わたしにとっては説明のくだりがおもしろかったのですが、現代劇に親しみがない同行者にとっては少々騒がしかったようで。そこは好き好きですね。

The arrival of our Maiko was announced and she danced so beautifully allowing the the rare opportunity for a photo with her even a few questions, followed by a walk in the gardens.
The bus tour allowed us an insight into places for us to visit in the following days.

The kimono dressing experience was truly amazing and definitely something that will be worthwhile doing again. The whole process was well thought out and really added to the fun experience. This is a once in a lifetime event so we really hoped for it to be good. We weren't too sure about it at first because it was our first time going there, but from the beginning, the lady who dressed us politely directed us through the whole process. We had seen some people dressed in kimonos when walking around different areas, but some were messy and looked rush. This is why we were anxious to find out how we would be dressed. Although it was a lengthy process to finally get us fully dressed in the kimono, much time and effort was put into dressing us neatly and beautiful by the lady who dressed us. She was also very conscious if we were comfortable in our kimono also which made the dressing process much easier and better for us. After getting dressed and ready to go, we realised the weather wasn't good for a kimono photo shoot as it was raining heavily. Luckily there was a cherry blossom tree inside the building just three floors down from where we were getting dressed. The lady who dressed us also then educated us into how to climb stairs and sit in a kimono, which really helped people who were new to wearing a kimono like us. Overall the experience was very enjoyable and we would definitely recommend it. It is a once in a lifetime experience for us, and we were lucky to get it done by great experienced professional people and a place which catered for everything! What a great kimono experience! Would definitely recommend this place.

The Instructors were such lovely folks--they really made the experience fun. Good activity for adults or children. The workshop is a bit out of the way, but located in a very pleasant residential neighborhood--nice for a stroll away from the busy Tokyo tourist sites. Very good price, since you'd easily pay more just to buy a "sampuru" much less make your own.

We really enjoyed making plastic sample Ramen. Our instructor had a lot of knowledge about the process and was a lot of fun. All of the employees were nice.
The location was easy to find. We were greeted at the door and began work on our ramen. The process was easy and and gave a great result. All three of our bowls of ramen looked different and reflected our ramen artistry. :-)
A family with younger children came in later to make colorful parfaits, they also had a great time.
I would highly recommend this for families, groups, couples and singles. The sample food makes a great souvenir from Japan. Be sure to pick up a few extra pieces for friends at home.

The food was delicious, and my parents, whom I brought along, were very pleased. However, during the reservation, it was mentioned that the course would include a tour towards Odaiba, so I was expecting that. In reality, it was a cherry blossom viewing course that did not go to Odaiba and stayed around Sumida Park the entire time. The cherry blossoms were hardly blooming, and since I had signed up to show my parents the view of Odaiba, I really wished they had at least informed us beforehand that we wouldn't be going to Odaiba. That was the only disappointment.
お料理がどれも美味しく、連れていった両親も大変喜んでいました。
ただ、予約時のコース説明に、お台場方向までの周遊とあったので、そのつもりでいたのですが、実際はお花見コースでお台場方面には行かず、隅田公園の方にずっと留まったままでした。
桜がほとんど咲いていない状態でしたし、両親にお台場の景色を見せてあげたく思って申し込んだので、せめて出向前に、一言、お台場にはいかないと、言ってほしかったなぁと、それだけが残念でした。
Dear Koriko,
Thank you for boarding with us. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the food. I apologize for not being able to meet your expectations regarding the navigation course. I will make sure to note that during the cherry blossom season, the course will differ from the usual one. Additionally, please note that on the 1 hour and 30 minutes course, we cannot reach Odaiba due to time constraints, so if you wish to visit Odaiba, I recommend using the 2 hour and 30 minutes course.

We requested an outdoor photo shoot in Asakusa with a four-year-old girl in a furisode and Shichi-Go-San formal attire. Fortunately, the weather was great on the day of the shoot. Although the child's whims caused the session to run longer than expected, the shop was accommodating and stayed with us until the end of the shoot, which was a great help. There was also a discount for the rickshaw, which we used for the photo shoot. Everyone, from the hairstylist to the photographer and the rickshaw puller, was fluent in English, which was very helpful. The photos are not ready yet, but I am looking forward to them. I would definitely use their services again if the opportunity arises.
