初めての修行体験

Reviewed by: maha

座禅で何も考えずに頭の中を空っぽにすることができ、リフレッシュになりました。その後お寺さんのお話を聞いて考えていたら悩みがなくなってきた気がしました
精進料理がとても美味しかったです！

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＞

緊張した〜！

Reviewed by: ミイ

迷走台風のもたらす雨の中参加しました。
たくさんある見本のカットの複雑さと
練習してみての自分の力量との差をどうしようかと図案選びに悩みました。
深く彫ると穴が空きそうでおっかなびっくり。
先生のアドバイスもありなんとか完成出来ました。
次回はもっと複雑な図案に挑戦してみたいです！
(1人でも楽しく参加出来ました！)

Tokyo Kintsugi Workshop: Simple Gold Repair Class near Shin Koenji

Amazing experience

Reviewed by: Great!

Out of all of the activities we have done in Japan, this has turned to be the best one we have done! The owners are a married couple and both have been so nice and sweet. The whole activity is very immersive and we didn't notice that 2 hours have went by so fast! They also served us sweets and tea before starting and they were all so delicious! I even had 5 refills of the tea.

On our next trip to Japan, we will for sure come by again to see you!

Thank you very much for taking part in making our trip unforgetful.

With lots of love from your first Cyprus visitors. :)

楽しい！

Reviewed by: KIYO

台風直撃日に体験しましたが、幸い土砂降りのタイミングから外れていた為、お店に移動後、問題なく体験できました。先生のお姉さんに丁寧に教えて頂けます。自分の苦手な模様の削り方や、改善ポイントなども的確に指導して頂けるが有難かったです。練習しながら本番に挑めますし、難しい図案や格好良い図案なども教えて頂けます。
とても上手に褒めてくださるので、モチベーションも下がらず、集中して挑めます。残念ながら私は削りすぎてグラスに穴を開けてしまいましたが、もう一つやってみますかとご提案して下さいました。（時間の都合で諦めました）一緒に体験した妻はキチンと仕上げていましたので、無茶しなければ上手に作ることが出来ると思います。
穴は空きましたが、完成はしたので、サボテン鉢にでも活用しようと思います。が、悔しいのでリベンジしようと思います。ものづくりが好きな方はとても楽しめると思います。

Tokyo Kintsugi Workshop: Simple Gold Repair Class near Shin Koenji

Outstanding experience with warm-hearted Kintsugi masters

Reviewed by: Janes

When we think back to our class, we are still filled with the warmth, hospitality and expertise that we were able to experience.
Even though it was only just under 3 hours, we were able to get a great impression of the art of Kintsugi.
Our self-repaired cups, about which we received interesting historical information, will be one of the most precious memories of our trip to Japan.
Thank you very much!

Tokyo Kintsugi Class - 1-Day Workshop near Nippori

What an amazing experience in Tokyo!!

Reviewed by: Paula

Such a fun activity with my 16 year old daughter. We went to the studio and were pleasantly surprised to find out if was a personal lesson for just the two of us! Our teacher was so lovely and you could tell how passionate she was about her craft. She explained the whole process thoroughly and helped us if we needed it on each step. The packaging so we could transport our projects back home was also amazing. I did not expect to have that done for us either! Highly recommend if you're into arts and crafts!!

Edo Kiriko Glass Cutting Experience in Asakusa

Wonderful, creative time for the whole family!

Reviewed by: Julie Anne

We had a really wonderful time creating a very unique keepsake that will always remind us of our time in Japan. Our instructor, Hiro, was excellent in explaining everything in English and he helped my sons each learn techniques to create the glass cuts they wanted for each of their designs. After we were done, we were able to photograph our completed glasses in a way that made them look so professional. We highly recommend this activity - especially for those in high school and above.

奈良定期観光バス法隆寺＋中宮寺＋慈光院＋薬師寺＋唐招提寺を巡る1日バスツアー＜7時間／昼食付／JR奈良駅・近鉄奈良駅発＞

知識と感動と興奮！素晴らしい奈良旅（猛暑の中たくさん歩きました！）

Reviewed by: aki

今年２月にバンクーバー街歩きツアーをベルトラさん経由で利用してとても良かったので、この奈良旅もお世話になることにしました。

若い頃ハマった漫画「日出処の天子」聖地巡りも兼ねて念願の奈良旅へ。修学旅行以来30余年振りでした。

奈良交通のガイドさんのよどみのない話ぶりが素晴らしく、聴き惚れながら、感動と興奮に包まれて憧れの地をめぐることができました。
猛暑日でしたが、日傘の貸し出しや冷たいおしぼりをご用意いただいたりと細やかなサービスがありがたかったです。

昼食処の弁慶さんでお土産に買った刻みなら漬がとても美味しく、もっと買ってくればよかったと後悔中。（昼食自体は正直イマイチ…でした）

慈光院のご住職のお話が面白く、帰路で主人と何度もその話で盛り上がりました。

個人でまわるよりも効率良く、ガイドさんのお話から知識が深まりより楽しめ、奈良がますます好きになりました。

Japanese Plastic Food Sample Art Experience in Tokyo

Such a pleasant experience!!

Reviewed by: Nicole G.

I just made my own bowl of ramen this weekend and I was helped by one of the workers, Ryou. He was so sweet!! He was able to communicate effectively in English, showed me every step with patience, rooted me on, and even offered to take photos/videos of me throughout the process. After I was finished making my bowl, it took only about 5 minutes for it to dry and I was ready to go!

They also have an area where they sell fake food goodies, and I bought myself some gyoza earrings. It was an easy, quick walk from the station. If you’re into fake food, definitely recommend!!

Yoshiichiro san and Yoshiko san were such lovely people. Clearly very passionate about their craft, they taught us the art of Kintsugi with a step by step process. They even told us where to purchase the equipment ourselves if we wanted to do this at home, which we did.

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

Absolutely Amazing Night Out Experience!

Reviewed by: Kyoto Dream

A really memorable and amazing experience with this Maiko Dance and dinner tour. We were escorted to a beautiful and spacious dining hall at Shozan Resort Kyoto. It is an incredibly lovely resort with a beautiful Japanese garden. A traditional and a delicious Japanese dinner was served. (Menu: Saki dzuke “appetizer”, Ha sun “ha-sun assortment”, Otsukuri “sliced raw fish”, Ipoin “a dish”, Konami “small saucepan”, Agemono “fried food”, Gohan “rice”, Kounomono “pickle” , Mizumono “dessert”, While we were enjoying our dinner, a stunningly beautiful Maiko (her name is Kimisora, the meaning of her name is dream) came out onto the stage and performed a brief dance. Kimosora san talked about some geisha history and her own stories of how and why she becomes a Maiko. Kimosora san was fascinated about geisha and their stories when she was a kid and determined to become a geisha one day. She is a friendly and sweet and elegant lady. Her English is excellent. She also showed us her extraordinary beautiful kimono and her special makeup and hairdo. Surprisingly we were given an extra long Q and A time (at least 30 mins or so) with her and we could ask any questions. She answered every question attentively and precisely. At the end we could all take several photos with her. (A reminder to myself : never touch the geisha hands or their clothes and this is an absolute respect to a geisha). During the whole meeting I could also take many photos freely. Kimisora san gave us her name card at the end of the dinner. It was a really really wonderful and memorable evening. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who would like to meet a maiko in an extremely relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere. If I ever visit Tokyo in the future I would join this tour again. A great and joyful life experience. My best wishes to Kimisora san and thank you Veltra for making my dream come true.
