We had an absolutely delightful time at the kintsugi class. The hosts were exceptionally kind and friendly. The class was interesting and time flew by. We all left with our own piece restored pottery. A wonderful way to spend some time doing something interest with such nice and thoughtful people. As tourists it sometimes seems so rare to have an opportunity to interact with people in this way.
(The class is also very easy to get to by train.)
The trip exceeded my expectations. The ship anchored between the two platforms set to shoot off the fireworks. Food and drink was plentiful. I didn't expect English service, which was ok since I speak a little bit of Japanese, but one of the waiters spoke perfect English so everything was easy. Given how hot and humid it was, riding in the Yakatabune is an excellent choice for viewing the fireworks. Unlimited beverage service, a clean restroom, and air conditioned cabin made the entire trip enjoyable.
Wear socks and use shoes that are easy to remove. You don't wear shoes on the tatami mats.
A very good experience : nice boat, nice people, nice food, nice beverages, what else ? Yes, nice views 👌🏻. Everything perfect. Thank you 🙏
This was our second time booking this delightful experience—our first was last year, and we were excited to return! The location is very convenient, just a few minutes’ walk from the nearest train station, and easy to find.
From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality. Although the owner doesn’t speak much English, he went out of his way to communicate and make us feel welcome. He was incredibly friendly, kind, and guided us patiently through each step of the sundae-making process.
We could each choose up to five silicone food samples to decorate our sundae. First, we picked the color of the sundae base and then created it under the owner's guidance. After that, we learned how to twirl the sundae, which was really fun, before moving on to the decorating part.
The finished sundaes looked adorable—so realistic and yummy-looking! It was a really fun and hands-on activity, perfect for all ages. We had a great time and made some sweet memories. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a unique and creative experience in Japan
press the silicone firmly when twirling to get the best shape.
We had a great time at the kitsugi workshop where we not only learned exactly how to use the tools and create the art but also where we can get supplies to apply our learnings at home.
Wholeheartedly recommend to take 3 hours out of your time in Tokyo to do this.
