Sometimes, a stroll in Asakusa in a kimono. たまには着物で浅草さんぽ

Reviewed by: くもじい

While reading a novel set in Edo, I really wanted to wear a kimono and walk around the downtown area, so I made a reservation here. The studio had many international customers, including people from Taiwan and Thailand.

Although the studio isn't very large, there are plenty of kimonos to choose from, to the point where I was almost overwhelmed. The staff provided great advice to help me quickly decide on hair accessories and an obi. The fitting was speedy yet thorough, with just the right amount of tightness so that it wasn't uncomfortable to walk. The hairstyling was simple but cute, with lovely braids.

This time, I decided to add the photo shoot option. We started the shoot by walking from the studio to Senso-ji Temple. The photographer was very friendly and shared a lot of information about Asakusa, almost like a guide. My husband, slightly nervous in his hakama, and I, feeling a bit shy in my kimono, were able to enjoy a relaxed atmosphere thanks to the pleasant conversation.

There were New Year's decorations, creating a unique atmosphere in Asakusa during the year-end and New Year period. I wondered if there were couples like us in the Edo period as we enjoyed the hour-long photo shoot.

Even without the photo shoot, I think the price is a great deal for kimono rental with hairstyling, allowing you to wear it until the evening. It would be nice to see more variety in men's kimonos as well.

江戸が舞台の小説を読んでいたらどうしても着物を着て下町の街を歩いてみたくなりこちらを予約してみました。
スタジオには海外のお客さんも沢山来ており、台湾とタイの方もいました。
そこまで広くないスタジオですが、十分に選べるだけの着物があり、逆に迷って決められないくらい。髪飾りも帯も、ぱぱっと決められるようスタジオの方がいい具合にアドバイスをくれます。
着付けはスピーディですがしっかりとしてました。歩いていても苦しくないほどよい締め具合、ヘアセットも簡単ですがかわいく編み込んでくれました。
今回は思い切って写真撮影のオプションを付けました。スタジオから浅草寺へ歩いて撮影開始。カメラマンさんだけど、浅草について沢山お話をしてくれてまるでガイドさんみたいな方でした。袴姿にやや緊張気味の夫と、着物でちょっと恥ずかしい私でしたが、お陰で楽しいおしゃべりに和んだ雰囲気で撮影できましたよ。
ちょうどお正月の飾りがあり年末年始の独特な雰囲気の浅草。江戸の時代にもこんな夫婦がいたのかな、なんて思いにふけりながら、1時間ほどの撮影を楽しみました。
写真撮影なしでも、着物レンタルにヘアセットもついて、夕方まで着て過ごせてこの値段はお得だと思います。男性の着物ももっと種類があると嬉しいですね。

乗合屋形船 お台場＆スカイツリー周遊コース 旬のお料理＆飲み放題付！ 全船掘りごたつ＆スカイデッキ完備＜両国発＞by 晴海屋

The last luxury of the year! 今年最後の贅沢！

Reviewed by: てぃこ

I previously took a yakatabune cruise in the summer where we enjoyed all-you-can-eat monjayaki, but this time it was winter. I wondered how it would be, and it turned out to be a great choice with hot pot and tempura! We even got to enjoy the night view and fireworks! It became a wonderful memory for the end of the year.

■ From the station to boarding
It took about 2-3 minutes to walk from Kachidoki Station, and after crossing the bridge, it was easy to find the meeting place as there were many people gathered. I confirmed the boat with the staff from Harumiya, and boarding started about 15 minutes before departure. We were able to smoothly enter the boat after placing our shoes in the shoe box.

■ Meal
There were name cards on the table, and the food was already prepared. As soon as I sat down, a chilled bottle of beer was brought to me. The sashimi and hot pot were delicious, and the tempura was served fresh and crispy! I was very happy. After rice and pickles, there were fruits and shiratama dessert as well. I was completely full.

■ Fireworks and night view
That day, there were fireworks for the last time this year, and we could enjoy them up close for 10 minutes starting at 7 PM. It was cold on the sky deck, and I was shivering, but the sky was clear and beautiful. The night view of Odaiba, the neon lights of the yakatabune, and the Rainbow Bridge were mesmerizing, and it was very soothing.

■ Service
After enjoying everything, about 30 minutes before the end, the staff came around to greet each table. There were guests celebrating recovery from illness and passing exams, and at the end, we received a gift from Harumiya. I heard that if you inform them in advance, you can receive special services for anniversaries. I thought I would like to use this for family anniversaries or dining gatherings with friends next time.

屋形船には、以前夏にもんじゃ焼き食べ放題で乗ったことがありましたが、今回は冬。どんなだろう～？と思っていましたが、お鍋に天麩羅！夜景に花火まで！大正解でした。今年最後のよい思い出となりました。

■駅～乗船まで
勝どき駅から2～3分程度歩き、橋を渡ると、たくさんの人が集まっていたので集合場所はすぐにわかります。
晴海屋さんのスタッフの方に船を確認し、15分前くらいから順番に乗船となります。靴も靴箱に入れていただき、スムーズに中に入ることができました。

■食事
机の上には席札が置いてあり、料理も準備されています。着席するとすぐに冷え冷えの瓶ビールが運ばれてきました。お刺身、お鍋も美味しく、天麩羅は揚げたてが出てきてサクサク！とても嬉しかったです。ご飯とお漬物の後は、フルーツや白玉デザートも。お腹パンパンになりました。

■花火と夜景
この日はちょうど今年最後の花火が上がるということで、19時〜10分間、間近で鑑賞することができました。スカイデッキの上では寒くてブルブル震えていましたが、雲もなく空気が澄んでいることもあり、とっても綺麗でした。お台場の夜景、屋形船のネオン、レインボーブリッジもずっとみていたいくらいで、癒されました。

■サービス
ひととおり堪能した後、残り30分くらいになった頃、スタッフの方がひと席ずつまわり、挨拶をしてくださいました。
快気祝い、合格祝いで利用された方がいて、最後に晴海屋さんからのプレゼントがありました。事前に伝えておくと記念日のサービスを受けることもできるそうです。
次回は、家族の記念日や友人との食事会にも利用してみたいなと思いました。

Shared Yakatabune Tokyo Dinner Cruise with All-You-Can-Drink Plan

Worth it!

Reviewed by: Miss C

I don't usually write reviews, but this was really great. I went with a group of friends, and everyone had lots of fun. The hostess spoke perfect English, and was so welcoming. She explained everything (about the sights, food, drinks) in both English and Japanese. The fresh tempura was really good, and they kept the drinks coming!

We were super lucky too, because in December (on Saturdays) there are fireworks. If you can go on a Saturday in December, I really recommend it. Make sure you go out onto the roof, because seeing all the colorful boats on the water was really pretty.

Thank you, we hope to come back again.

The Christmas lights are beautiful! クリスマスのライトアップがキレイ♪

Reviewed by: YuKi

I took my first ride on a yakatabune (traditional Japanese houseboat). It wasn't planned, but it happened to be just before Christmas. I thought yakatabune was mainly for enjoying the food, but I had no idea the illuminated night views could be so beautiful!

You can leisurely enjoy the Christmas-lit Rainbow Bridge, Fuji Television, and Tokyo Skytree from the boat. At photo spots, you can go up to the deck and have the stunning Tokyo illuminations all to yourself! It felt much more elegant than going to see the illuminations in the crowded Odaiba.

Of course, I was very satisfied with the food as well. After the kaiseki (traditional multi-course meal) and hot pot, we had freshly fried tempura! Although the boat was full, the staff efficiently served the freshly fried tempura one dish at a time. The portions were generous, enough to satisfy even men. It was really delicious, but I ended up leaving one dish because of the volume. I'm sorry...

Perhaps because it was the year-end party season, the boat was full. There were families, couples, and girls' gatherings, as well as tourists from Canada and Singapore. I was also impressed by the tour guide, who alternated between fluent Japanese and English, wearing a hachimaki (headband)! The powerful English spoken by the lively Edo-style lady was so impressive that it could be considered a highlight of the experience.

At the end, they sang a birthday song in perfect English for a guest celebrating their birthday, which was spectacular!

I boarded the yakatabune with expectations, and it truly exceeded them! I can recommend this to family, friends, and everyone.

初の屋形船に乗ってきました。狙った訳ではないのですが、ちょうどクリスマス前。屋形船ってお料理を楽しむものだと思ってましたが、ライトアップされた夜景がこんなにキレイに見られるなんて知りませんでした！
クリスマス仕様にライトアップされたレインボーブリッジ、フジテレビ、スカイツリーなどをのんびりゆったり船上から楽しめます。写真スポットではデッキに上がることもできるので、東京イルミネーションの絶景を独り占め！混雑するお台場までイルミネーションを見に行くより、優雅な気分でした。

お料理にももちろん大満足。懐石料理、鍋の後は揚げたての天麩羅！満席だったのですがスタッフさんが手際よくテーブルを回って、揚げたての天麩羅を一品ずつ提供してくれます。ボリュームもあり男性でも満足できそう。ほんとに美味しかったのですが、あまりのボリュームで私は一品残してしまいました。ごめんなさい・・

忘年会シーズンだからか船は満席。ファミリーやカップル、女子会の他、カナダとシンガポールからの観光客も一緒でした。ハチマキした姉さんが、日本語と流暢な英語で交互に解説してくれる観光ガイドにも感動！ちゃきちゃきの江戸っ子風姉さんが喋る迫力ある英語もひとつの名物になるくらい、見応え（聞き応え？）たっぷりの解説でした。
最後にはお誕生日のお客さんへ完璧な発音の英語でバースデーソングを歌い上げ、圧巻でした！

期待して乗った屋形船でしたが、ほんとに期待以上！これは家族や友達、みんなにオススメできます。

It's that time of year again! I fully enjoyed Kimono Day in Asakusa. 恒例！年末の着物Day　浅草満喫しました。

Reviewed by: ライチョウ

Every year, I enjoy wearing a kimono at the end of December. This year, I used Kim's Sakura Photo Studio again. As always, the dressing time was incredibly quick! There were two of us, and the total dressing time was about 30 minutes, so it went by in no time with two staff members assisting us. The variety of kimonos in terms of colors and patterns was abundant, even more so than last year. I chose a somewhat subdued colored kimono with a flashy obi, accented with pink. We entered the studio at 10:30, and our free time started at 11:00.

First, we filled up at a sushi restaurant where the tuna is cheap and delicious, then we enjoyed the retro atmosphere and Dutch coffee (cold brew coffee) at the long-established café Angelus, which opened in 1946. Finally, we had a great time at the Asakusa Engei Hall enjoying a variety show. The afternoon show at Asakusa Engei Hall ends at 4:10 PM, so if we listen until the end and return to the studio, we can easily make it back by the kimono return time of 5 PM.

I rarely have the opportunity to wear a kimono in my daily life, but it’s a nice change of pace. With this service, there's no need to buy a kimono myself, and I can enjoy various styles, so I think it would be fun to invite my close friends for a kimono girls' gathering in Asakusa.

毎年、12月末に着物を着て楽しんでいます。今年も金さんのサクラフォトスタジオを利用しました。相変わらずの迅速な着付けタイム！2人参加でしたが、着付けの所要時間はあわせて約30分程、2名で対応していただけるのであっという間です。着物の種類も色、柄ともに品揃えが多く、昨年よりも充実していました。ちょっと地味目の色の着物に、派手めの帯、アクセントにはピンクであわせていただきました。10:30にスタジオに入り、11:00から自由行動スタートです。

まずは、まぐろが安くて美味しいお鮨やさんで腹ごしらえ、その後、昭和21年開業の老舗喫茶店アンヂェラスでレトロな雰囲気とダッチコーヒー(水出しアイスコーヒー)を味わい最後は、浅草演芸ホールで寄席を楽しみました。浅草演芸ホールの昼の部は終了が午後4時10分、最後まで聞いてからスタジオに戻れば着物の返却時間の17時には余裕で間に合います。

着物を着る機会が普段ではめったにありませんが、気分転換にもなってなかなかいいものです。このサービスなら自分で着物を買う必要もなく、色々なパターンのものが楽しめるので仲良しの友達を誘って、着物浅草女子会なんてやってみてもいいなと思います。

Yakatabune are the best! 屋形船最高！

Reviewed by: taro

We participated with our family of four, all of us experiencing a yakatabune for the first time, and we were excited about this unknown adventure.

The route for the day included spots like the Rainbow Bridge, Tokyo Skytree, Tokyo Tower, and Odaiba. The view from the boat was, of course, wonderful, but the interesting trivia shared by the staff added to the enjoyment.

The food was plentiful, featuring sashimi and tempura, and it was quite filling. As a family that tends to eat a lot, we were a bit concerned about the portion sizes, but it turned out to be unnecessary worry. With an all-you-can-drink option, I enjoyed some alcohol while my family was very satisfied with juice.

There was also a birthday celebration for one of the participants, and a boat selling ice cream made an appearance, adding to the fun events of the day.

Most importantly, the staff were very friendly and provided excellent service. My son has a food allergy, and I consulted them about it right after boarding. They responded kindly on the spot and even checked the details just to be safe. When my son mentioned wanting to eat rice with his other dishes, they quickly understood and prepared the rice for him in advance. They provided various other services as well, always with a smile, which we greatly appreciated.

I’ve written a lot, but the best part of the day was seeing my son, with a camera around his neck and holding chopsticks and juice in both hands, exclaiming with a big smile, "This yakatabune is the best!!"

It was a thoroughly satisfying two and a half hours that flew by.

家族4人、全員屋形船は初めてという事で未知の体験に期待しつつ参加しました。

この日のルートは、レインボーブリッジ、東京スカイツリー、東京タワー、お台場といったスポットを回るものでした。
船からの景色はもちろん素晴らしいのですが、スタッフの方のガイドにちょいちょい含まれる豆知識がまた面白く、とても楽しめました。

料理も刺身や天ぷらなど盛りだくさんで、ボリュームもありなかなかの食べ応えでした。わりと大食い一家なのでボリュームに若干不安があったのですが杞憂でした。
飲み放題もついているので私はお酒、家族はジュースで大満足。

参加者の中に当日お誕生日の方がおり皆でお祝いしたり、アイスクリームを売りに来る船が登場したりとイベントも盛りだくさんでした。

そして何よりスタッフの皆さんがとても気さく、対応も素晴らしかったです。
息子が食物アレルギー持ちの為乗船後すぐにその点を相談したのですが、その場で丁寧に返答してくれた上、念の為と詳細を確認してきてくれました。
締めに登場予定のご飯について、他のおかずと一緒に食べたいなと息子が話していると、すぐに察して先にご飯を用意してくださったり。
他にも色々とサービスしていただいたのですが、常に笑顔で気持ちよく対応してくださり大変ありがたかったです。

・・と色々書きましたが、この日参加して一番良かったのは、息子がカメラを首から下げ箸とジュースを両手に持ち、
「屋形船最高！！」
と満面の笑みで言っていた事でした。

大満足であっという間の2時間半でした。

Awesome experience, lots of fun, lovely service.

Reviewed by: Kristy

The women were very lovely and sweet, and they worked very hard to make the dress up a great experience for us. There was a giant variety in kimonos, especially considering my friend was 5'5" and I'm 5'11. The service was prompt and excellent, and we had a lot of fun and lovely reactions when we walked around the Asakusa Shrine nearby. I'd definitely recommend this experience to anyone, it was the best thing I did in my time in Japan and well worth the money.

Shared Yakatabune Tokyo Dinner Cruise with All-You-Can-Drink Plan

First time on a Yakayabune

Reviewed by: SSS

Since I had never boarded a yakatabune before, I was so excited about trying it.
It took me about a five-minute walk from the station to the boat boarding area.
On boarding the boat, I was greeted by young high-spirited ladies wearing a towel around their heads. I was impressed by their cheerful greetings both in Japanese and English.
I enjoyed beer and delicious dish right away. They cooked Tempura on the boat. Freshly fried tempura was served.

We were able to stop by tourist spots and enjoy the view from the boat at Odaiba. It was a good us to choose this day ,because the weather was great and we really enjoyed it!

A wide range of people were on board, there were tourists from Tokyo, the locals and travelers from overseas that were all introduced by a friendly young lady which made the vibe very lively on board!
It was nothing like just taking a ordinary boat, instead, it was as if signing up for a Japanese house boat tour with a tour guide on board. I'll definitely use the service again when next time my friend visit Tokyo!

Shared Yakatabune Tokyo Dinner Cruise with All-You-Can-Drink Plan

Great even in winter. I want to go again.

Reviewed by: Izumin

To celebrate a birthday, we joined this cruise with two small kids. We could see the Christmas lights in Odaiba and Tokyo Skytree. Also we enjoyed fireworks in Odaiba. We had freshly cooked Tempura and drinks as much as we wanted. All of us were very satisfied. It was a dream day out!

<Meeting Point>
In the morning, “Harumiya” called me and we could confirm the meeting point and time so we did not have any worry about it. There were staff wearing happi coats in front of the pier.Boarding started about 15 minutes before sailing time.

<Ship>
There were two rows of sunken kotatsu tables. Families, couples, small groups shared the boat. We were close to each other, and immediately got along with the people around, it was a harmonious atmosphere.

<Meals and Drinks>
The starter was a Kaiseki meal, then Japanese Nabe. A variety of Tempuras were served. Everything was delicious. The freshly cooked Tempura was the best since it was very cold mid-winter. For the passenger aged under 5 years old there were no meal served,however, parents could share their meals because of the volume of food. There were a lot of choices in drinks, all included in the ticket price.
<Night Scenery>
The night scenery from Tokyo Bay is really beautiful. When the ship stops, you can climb up to the sky deck, and take in the magnificent view. It was during the Christmas illumination period, so Tokyo Tower, Rainbow Bridge, Fuji TV main office, and Tokyo Sky Tree all lighted up in Christmas mode. I just happened to see the fireworks of Odaiba which are held on Saturdays!

<Service>
The staff of the houseboat was amiable. Going out with small children is often troublesome. However, this houseboat excursion was very good. Staff was welcoming to small kids and entertained them. Parents could relax and enjoy the event.
Initially I was worried about the houseboat trip in winter. But it was great. I would like to go again in warmer weather.

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

Very fun!

Reviewed by: Miki Mouse

I’m glad that I took part in this tour. I joined with a friend, and it was as if we both turned into models.
First of all, the studio is conveniently located, only 1-3 minutes from Kaminari-mon on foot. As it’s a rented room in a building, it was hard to find it. When we went inside, Kyonming spoke to use politely. The studio is small, but Kyongming made us really cute. We wore elegant kimonos with Nagoya obis. I recommend the Nagoya obi highly.

They arranged my hair simply and put 3 hair accessories on my hair! After putting Kimono on, it's time for a photo shoot! I was so excited about getting photographed and making many poses in Asakusa! Please have a look at pictures I attached! We had free time until 5 so had a stroll in Asakusa. However, tourists looked at us, they wanted take our pictures like paparazzi, so we were in many pictures with people from many countries for their souvenirs.
It was the best experience ever. I would love to do it with my friends again! You should try it at least once, as it is a rare opportunity to take pictures of you wearing Kimono at this price!

Casual? カジュアル？

Reviewed by: sun

The weather was nice, and the food was delicious, but it felt a bit different from the atmosphere I was expecting. Rather than being stylish, it was quite casual. I would recommend it for those who enjoy that kind of vibe! The sunset was beautiful, but I thought I would wait until it sank a bit more to take photos, and before I knew it, I had missed my chance because it turned around. It's a shame. If you want to take pictures, I recommend doing so in between meals.

天気も良かったし、料理も美味しかったんですが…期待してた雰囲気とはちょっと違ったかな～という感じです。
お洒落というよりは、かなりカジュアル？そういった雰囲気が好きな方にはおすすめです！
サンセットが綺麗だったんですが、もう少し沈んでから写真を…と思ったら、いつのまにかUターンしていてシャッターチャンスを逃しました。残念です。写真を撮りたい方は、食事の合間に撮影することをおすすめします。

乗合屋形船 お台場＆スカイツリー周遊コース 旬のお料理＆飲み放題付！ 全船掘りごたつ＆スカイデッキ完備＜両国発＞by 晴海屋

First experience on a yakatabune (houseboat)! 屋形船初体験！

Reviewed by: SSS

I had never been on a yakatabune (traditional Japanese houseboat) before, so I was really looking forward to this experience!

It took about a 5-minute walk from the station to the boarding location, and I arrived without any issues. Upon boarding, I was greeted by enthusiastic staff wearing hachimaki (headbands), and I was impressed by their cheerful greetings in both Japanese and English!

I quickly enjoyed a beer and savored delicious dishes. It seemed they were frying tempura on board, and freshly made tempura was continuously brought out!

We stopped at sightseeing spots like Odaiba, and during that time, we could go out on the deck to enjoy the view. The weather was great, so it felt wonderful, and I was glad I chose this day!

There was a wide range of participants, including people visiting Tokyo from various regions, locals, and international guests. The staff casually introduced everyone, which made the atmosphere on the boat very lively! It felt more like a guided yakatabune tour rather than just a boat ride, and I thought it would be great to use this experience again when my friends come to visit Tokyo!

屋形船には乗ったことがなかったので、非常に楽しみにして参加しました！

駅から乗船場所までは徒歩5分くらいで問題なく到着。
乗船すると、ハチマキをまいて気合いの入ったお姉さん方がお出迎えしてくださり、軽快なあいさつを日本語と英語で述べている姿に感心！

すぐにビールをいただき、おいしそうな料理に舌鼓。船内で天ぷらを揚げているようで、揚げたての天ぷらが続々と運ばれてきました！

お台場など、観光スポットでは停泊してくださり、その間は船の上に出て景色を眺めることができました。天気が良かったのでとても気持ちがよく、この日を選んでよかったです！

様々な地方から東京観光に来て乗船している方、近辺に住んでいる方、海外から来ている方など参加者の幅が広く、そういったこともお姉さん方が気さくに紹介してくださるので、船内はとても盛り上がります！
ただ船に乗るのではなく、観光ガイド付きの屋形船ツアーのようなイメージで、友人が東京へ遊びに来た時にでもまた使えたら良いなと思いました！

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

Up Close Maiko Experience

Reviewed by: Sami

I signed up for this package thinking this tour was in English. It was in Japanese. Food was OK. Average food that you would expect from tours. Nothing amazing, but if you never had Kyoto dish this is a good experience for you. Dinner was near Kinkakuji (Golden Pavilion), not in Gion. Another detail that I had missed. Though it was impressive to see some trees as old as 500 years old in the Jaoanese garden where we had dinner, the garden itself was not so enjoyable. Night view of the Kyoto is lame and not sure if it was worth driving all the way across town for that. Recommended for Maiko experience only.

Traditional Maiko Dress-up Experience in Gion

A truly unique experience

Reviewed by: Marilyn

Where else can one do this? The staff is very accommodating. I speak no Japanese, but one of the girls, Satomi, spoke English very well. She was a dream! There are several colors kimonos to select from as well as obi and hair ornaments. Everyone gets a small locker to store your clothes/purse, etc. The photography session was lots of fun, laughing all the time.

I did have a little trouble finding the street and building, too, once I got on the correct street. A map or better written instructions would have been helpful. Also, maybe I missed it, but I didn't even seen a sign for this business? I wound up asking a local...who just happened to work there.

One other suggestion. The space to change clothes is very, very small. There were other clients in the small space, and the congestion was a bit difficult.

Overall, I'm so glad I did this. I learned a lot about the process & what it takes to be a Maiko. Satomi, you ROCK! Thanks so much for being so kind and helpful.

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

WONDERFUL LIFE-TIME EXPERIENCE!!

Reviewed by: Emily

My friend and I had a wonderful time having ourselves dressed up in Kimonos (size UK14 to 18)..feeling great and walking along the streets of Asakusa, taking in the wonderful feel of Spring, with full bloom sakura trees around. We also engaged a cameraman to tale pictures of us. A once in a lifetime experience, wonderful and it does not hurt my pocket ;) I would highly recommend this unique and life time experience to those who wish to experience for themselves, one of many Japanese cultures. Thanks to our host, Kiyomi and her team (1 other assistant and Hiroshi, the cameraman).
