I had a really good time meeting Hiroshi and learning more about Asakusa and the Japanese culture. It was really nice wearing the kimono and the ladies at the studio did such a pretty hairstyle for me. The photos came out great. I am very happy I did this.

The cruise was well organised and had an English speaking host which was helpful as the crowd was split about 50/50 of locals to tourists. The food was excellent and the drinks were free flowing - loved the plum wine! We had the opportunity to head onto the top deck of the boat to take photos and enjoy the views of Tokyo. There was entertainment and it was just overall a really pleasant evening. I highly recommend this tour.

This was an amazing experience. The staff is so nice and speaks English and did an awesome job. It's not cheap but make sure to also do the make up and have someone to take pictures. While wandering around in Asakusa, people will look at you amazed and amused. This is really unique!
Hello, Delphine Thank you so much for a nice comment. We were very happy and honor to have you over our shop! We provide you with fabulous photos by our studio`s photographer, and we also have a makeup artist as well. We look forward to serving you with those next time. See you again! Best regards,

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!
Thank you very much for coming to the store this time.

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!

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。

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!

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!

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。

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.
We appreciate customers who let us know when things are not right. We are sorry you did not feel good with wearing kimono. Kimono is traditional wear that people need to put those in patience because of process to wear and with lots of layer clothes sometimes. Lots of people understand that. We are sorry for dressing room curtain. Extreme expression, `you had to strip off with other guests`? We never treat customers like that, anyways. We let our staff this issue notice as a serious warning if some of our staff treat you like that.

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.

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.
