和装レンタル＆着付け 着物で大阪観光！アクセス便利な心斎橋OPA店＜心斎橋駅すぐ＞
ミナミで着付けて、GoTo大阪城！
Reviewed by: 901
秋晴れの心地よい日に、和装で気分よくお出掛けしてきました。電車で大阪城へ行き、周辺の公園を散策して、ゆったりとランチして、帰りはタクシーを使い、一日遊びまわりました。和服や髪飾りも豊富に揃えてあったので、楽しみながら選び、好みの格好にベテランのスタッフさんが手際よく整えてくださり、仕上がりと同時に気分も上がりました。上手に着付けてくださるので、着崩れず、苦しくなく、疲れ過ぎず、食事をする時も苦しさを感じることもありませんでした。

Fashionable Kimono Rental and Dress-up in Shinsaibashi
Enjoyable walking tour in Shinsaibashi
Reviewed by: JoP
It was such a great experience to wear the Kimono and walk around the city despite the cold weather at 2degrees.
dressing up at Karei-kan was also fun, the ladies move so fast and they were friendly and accommodating.
we had fun also walking around the city and the shopping district... we'd like to go back in the future and do this cultural activity again in the spring since the trees and flowers would be colorful around that time and that wld be so nice for taking photos...
thanks Veltra and Karei-kan :)

Family-Friendly Ninja Training Experience in Osaka
Great experience!!!
Reviewed by: Jo Porcil
The experience was truly great, it was educational, informative, enjoyable and we had so much fun the whole time.
the only downside is that our group also availed of the optional 1hour Osaka tour after the ninja experience (for an additional cost!), but the teacher seemed not aware of it (but its indicated in the voucher and we paid for it).
in other words, were not able to have the 1hr Osaka tour... the teacher said we can tour wearing the ninja costume but its NOT the option mentioned in the activity description and we already changed into our regular clothes.
Veltra must make things clear next time in the description as if we paid for the 1hr option for tour, we should get it or there has to be other tour guides if the teacher cant do it since he had other clients on-schedule that day.
Can we have a refund of the payment for 3 pax? How do we do it? please reply Veltra, thanks so much. Hope you can give attention to this concern of ours.

Traditional Shodo Japanese Calligraphy Class in Osaka
Personalised class in doing calligraphy
Reviewed by: KathyR
Our hostess was charming and friendly. She was able to demonstrate and explain the art of calligraphy very clearly and we had a great time practicing our words and names and then producing a copy to take home and frame. My son and I were the only ones in the class so had her undivided attention. She was very complimentary about all our efforts.
As a bonus we asked for the recommendation for any nearby sushi restaurants, and she sent us to a sensational place.

Was good and enjoyable at the time but was quite an expensive outlay for what was essentially dressing up and dancing about with plastic swords.
Could be better if real swords were involved.

Osaka Tea Ceremony Experience with Kimono Dress-up
Exceeded Expectations
Reviewed by: Henry
My wife was the reason we booked this event, she wanted to experience wearing a Kimono and the tea making ceremony. I was happy to go along but was fairly neutral about the event. We were part of a group of four in the end with two ladies joining us so I was the only man.
Dressing in the Kimono was fun the ladies had brightly coloured ones with designs or flowers mine was unadorned but with all the undergarments and sash. The ladies were tied in intricate bows at the back and looked great.
The tea making ceremony was explained step by step in excellent English by our guide and we all made and drank the unique Matcha tea
My wife loved it all and we have many photos to recall the event. I also had a great time and It completely surpassed my expectations.

初詣に行くために予約させて頂きました。
スタンダードプランというものでの予約となっていましたが、ランクが異なるプランのお着物も全て見てチョイスできるので、来店してからのプランアップも可能です。
足袋やかばん、帯などもすべてセットなので手ぶらでOKです☆また、帯をどう合わせればいいか迷った時等もお店の方が親切で気さくな方ばっかりなので親身になってアドバイスして下さいます。
帯の結び方も一律ではなく、個々に考えて結んでくださったようで、私はリバーシブルの柄と色を活かした3段リボンのような可愛い帯にして下さいました。1日人混みを歩いても着崩れ知らずでした！
最後に写真撮影をお願いしましたが

We had a little difficulty finding the location (our fault) But she was so kind and waited outside for us. Her English is amazing and she was very thoughtful and friendly! The selection of yukata are very beautiful and she teaches you how to put on and wear them. I'm so glad we decided to book this activity, it was alot of fun to talk to the owner and the studio is very beautiful! I cannot say enough good things!!! We made a great memory for our first trip to Japan! ^^
Thank you very much for coming to the HIGASHI Japanese culture!

Yukata Dressing Lesson for Men and Women in Osaka (with Yukata to Take Home)
Clear explanation and very friendly host
Reviewed by: Liesbeth
Even though we got a plan to her home, we couldn't find her place on time. When she noticed we weren't there yet, she contacted us by phone (because she was worried). She was a very friendly host and very concerned about our wellbeing. We took a taxi to her place and then we could start the workshop.
First we had to chose our yukata. We could chose between 4 different ones with matching belts and getas. Afterwards, she explained how we had to put on the yukata and how we could sit in the train and on the floor (with our yukata on). Although it seems easy, it is harder than it looks. But she explained it thorougly.
At the end of the workshop, she walked with us to the direction of Umeda sky building. I would recommend this workshop.
How are you? Have you enjoyed Japan and Osaka? Thank you very much for having me have a good time together. And thank you for understanding my poor English. please come to Japan again.

One-Hour Japanese Traditional Taiko Drumming Experience in Osaka
My husband loved it and it was fun to just watch also
Reviewed by: Raquel
My husband is a hobby drummer, so of course he wanted to try out the traditional Japanese drumming. He definitely wasn't disappointed. The studio is very nice, with a dressing room to change into workout clothes (because it is a workout!). The staff was very friendly and the teacher spoke very good English. The class was a lot of fun for my husband, he wanted to take home a drum lol, and it was fun for me to watch and film him. The sound of the drums is so beautiful and unlike any other instrument, even western style drums. The way that they are played is truly an art form and very interesting to watch. The teacher showed them the basics of how to play and ran through some basic drumming drills. She showed them the four different places to hit the drum that they would be using for a short musical piece that they then learned to play. After they had learned the short piece, they learned a bit of embellishment. The class was capped off by the drummers putting on traditional drumming kimonos and playing the piece that they learned. I was able to film it and got great video of my husband playing like a traditional Japanese drummer!
After the class was over, the staff treated us to a performance that was truly delightful to watch. Overall, this was a great experience, and if we ever do it again I will certainly join in with my husband.
Dear Raquel,
Thank you for your email.
We are very glad that you enjoyed our taiko class.
It would help us a lot if you could share your experience with others.
Looking forward to seeing you again.
Best Regards,
Your Taiko Center.

Samurai Sword Art with Kimono Dressing and Performance in Osaka
Super fun experience! A Must do!!!
Reviewed by: Raquel
This was a lot of fun. This is an activity that can be enjoyed by literally any age. Fun for the entire family. I would recommend this to any one considering it and any one traveling to Japan. Very well done and a ton of fun.
My husband and I arrived a little bit early, but the crew took us in and immediately got us dressed in kimono and samurai outfit. We got to choose whether we wanted to be a samurai, a princess, or a ninja. I chose princess and my husband chose samurai. After dressing, and after the other small groups of people arrived and dressed, we were given a short lessen on the different samurai sword stances and how to swing the sword, take the sword out of the scabbard and put it back in, how to 'fling the blood off the blade' (lol I thought that one was fun). After learning the few stances and swings we were taught a quick little choreography of fighting. We paired off and practiced a couple of times before being individually filmed.
The whole experience was a lot of fun and the staff were super friendly and accommodating. They spoke very good english, some of them better than others, but they all spoke enough to fully understand us and communicate with us what to do. At the end of all the filming, they let us have a throwing star competition which was a lot of fun and interesting to see how difficult it actually is to throw one properly! One of the staff there was even the Japanese throwing star champion! I was pretty amazed by that.
We took tons of pictures, and they took most of them for us so we got both my husband and I in the shot. The video was sent to us only a couple hours after we left and is so much fun to watch and show friends.

サムライ&殺陣体験 侍の衣装を身に纏い殺陣に挑戦 子どもから大人まで大興奮！＜食事有 or 無／午前 or 午後／大阪市＞
日本人にもオススメです
Reviewed by: ラビット
侍の衣装を身に纏い、刀を腰に差すと気持ちが高ぶります。真剣そっくりの模造刀は想像以上に重く、強く振っても先生のようにビュッと音が鳴りません。刃が傾いているからだそうですが、真っ直ぐ斬るのは至難の業です。また、刀を鞘に収めるのがさらに難しいです。先生に「指が何本か飛んでますね（笑）」と言われてしまいました。後半は、軽い刀を使って殺陣の実践です。恥ずかしがらずサムライに成りきってヒーローを演じれば、一生の思い出になる動画が残せます。先生によると体験希望者の約９割が外国人旅行者だそうです。殺陣を体験して、何故サムライと忍者が外国人に人気があるのか実感できたような気がします。
お疲れ様でした。次回は主役になりきってストレス解消を！！

Samurai Sword Art with Kimono Dressing and Performance in Osaka
My samurai experience
Reviewed by: Misa
To see and to hold a katana is one of my biggest dream if ever I visit Japan. Besides, the image of ninja and samurai for me is great because of Samurai X, the Seven Samurais, 47 Rounin, Naruto and etc. When my friend, Misa, brought me to Samurai Experience, I was so overwhelmed because finally, I could hold and learn some sort of stances if so. As we entered the place, we were welcomed by the staff with a smile.The place resembled like a dojo. I felt more excited when we were introduced to sensei. As a foreigner, I had a hard time catching up what sensei was saying. Everything was all greek to me. I only knew a very few Japanese words and you could even count it. There were some things I was disappointed and some things I did admire. The way sensei explained the basic stances to us was way too fast which was hard to catch up and he explained more about kinda the history of it which we foreigner didn`t care much because we wanted to learn how to do the stances or moves. I believe that just by knowing how to do the moves would truly be marked in our head since there was a language barrier. Learning the moves directly and step by step is more important, I guess. Someday, a lot of foreigners will visit the place and they need to teach the moves step by step and slowly and give us more push to do it in character which is truly awesome! However, I really liked how welcoming the staffs were.Their English wasn`t good enough and I could sense how tensed they were but still, they managed to give us a good show. The potential of samurai experience is big because foreign people love the image of a ninja or a samurai. It may sound strange but when you try to ask my fellow Filipino, they will give you a big smile and tell stories about how we love ninjas. For me, that one hour experience made my dream come true to become a ninja and learn some moves for just a short time. I went out of a dojo with a big glee and I will definitely go back again if I have the chance.
