My wife and I did this experience together. The dressing studio is small and bustling, and being able to experience the art of formal kimono dressing was something we will never forget. Although we were the only foreigners there, suggesting this place does a robust local business, the English-speaking assistant was very accommodating. We were given a variety of beautiful kimonos to choose from, and ended up adding on a photo shoot package at the last minute, which they were great about. I have already recommended this experience to a friend who is traveling to Tokyo in a couple weeks.

お座敷体験事態は素晴らしかったです。が、ペットボトルのお茶や缶ビールには残念です。せっかくの雰囲気が。缶ビールを開けて飲むのも恥ずかしいし。おもてなしとするならば急須にお茶を入れてもらってちょっとした和菓子でもあった方がいいと思いました。
この度はご参加下さり誠に有難うございました。5つ星のご評価を賜り、誠に嬉しく、光栄でございます。また、貴重なご意見をお寄せ頂き、誠に有難うございます。
訪日外国人観光客の皆様を含め、幅広いお客様にご対応すべく、現行のスタイルをとっておりますが、お座敷遊び体験は、つかの間の江戸文化体験として雰囲気を重視しておりますので、能津様のご意見をぜひ参考にさせて頂きたく存じます。
今後とも精進してまいりますので、ぜひまたお遊びくださいませ。またのお越しを心よりお待ち申し上げております。

I brought my family to Asakusa, solely to participate in this activity. At first, they were very apphrehensive, but after donning the kimonos with the help and reassurances of the staff, my parents enjoyed this as much as I, a young adult, did!
If you're looking for a fun family activity, or an activity that allows you to dress up and admire the beauty of Japan's reach history, then this is the one for you! The staff are super duper helpful, and assisted us in finding the best places to photograph our outing! The staff also pointed us to Kaminarimon, a Japanese gate whose shopping street leads you directly to Senso-ji, Asakusa's most famous temple!
My only regret is that the selection of kimonos mostly consists of flower themed fabric; there were little to none featuring animals such as skylarks, koi, or even just trees and branches. But other than that, this experience was well worth it!

This was a great origami class! We were a group of 3 adults and 3 kids. The teacher was terrific with the kids, even when one of them decided not to do origami and instead cut and pasted the paper into different shapes. I really enjoyed making the origami flowers that looked so difficult, but were actually easy. There was sufficient instruction for complete beginners, yet the class was also interesting for those who had done origami before. Highly recommended!

My family and I really enjoyed the experience and I highly recommend it. The service was wonderful and professional. The choice of kimonos was excellent. We took some photos inside and then went out on the street to take more photos. We all had a really good time. You don't need to return the kimono until the end of the day.
Dear Jennifer,
Thank you very much for your comment. We are very glad that you enjoyed KIMONO experience. The KIMONO fitter remembers you and your daughter very well, and said she was an angel! In summer time, we have YUKATA which is a summer style cotton KIMONO, so please come back and have another try in near future.

The location is close to the station, maybe three minutes from the nearest exit, and the shop itself is easy to find being on the main road. The session itself takes place in the shop/atelier, the walls lined with sumie works on general sale. In the lesson I learnt a little about sumie history, techniques and styles. The instructor speaks English well and is friendly and patient. I painted five small pieces following his example which featured bamboo, Mt. Fuji and cherry blossoms and was able to take my attempts home. He gave me good advice and directions to a washi (Japanese paper) store after the session. I recommend the experience to anyone interested in sumie and wanting to give it a try!

Since it had been a long time since I'd been in Japan, I wanted to rent yukata and take a walk in Asakusa, so I tried this rental option.
The shop was very clean and even though everyone seemed quite busy, they all treated us kindly and with a smile. When you live overseas for a long time, this kind of Japanese hospitality is really moving. I would like to do a kimono rental next time.
Thank you very much!

I went here for a kimono dressup and I selected the option for a make-up session as well. The ladies were welcoming and very friendly. They had a lot of kimono's to choose from, and the kimono's they had were beautiful. The make-up and hair was also beautifully done (using brands such as MAC!).
I recommend this to anyone that wishes to dress up in a kimono and walk around beautiful Tokyo. There are Nice parks and sights closeby by which lovely pictures can be taken!

In April, my Thai girlfriend and I went together for this kimono rental experience. Unfortunately, it was a little rainy outside, but the meeting place for the activity was inside and the shop had a classy feel. The person who helped us put on the kimono spoke English, and I noticed a lot of non-Japanese customers. My girlfriend can't speak any Japanese, so this was really helpful for us.
We went to wear kimono together, and even as a guy, I thought it was really fun. More than that, my girlfriend was happy and that was the best. It seems like many people have an interest in Japanese kimono, so if you have friends from overseas, you should definitely bring them to do this.
Since you can wear the kimonos for the whole day (until 6pm), we got on the train and headed for Asakusa. It was kind of funny since so many travelers were staring at us. We had a lot of people ask to take pictures with us. It felt like we were famous.
After that, we wandered around Tokyo Skytree, Ginza and the Imperial palace, wearing the kimono to our heart's content! I definitely recommend this to travelers. I really enjoyed this tour.

Most tea ceremony experiences are in the form of a performance. You don't experience the feeling of host and guest that is the original purpose of "the way of tea"---a framework for communication and meditation. Of course, as a guest without knowledge of the tea ceremony you can only be a spectator not a true guest and participant.
Mat-Cha-Doh does an excellent job of teaching you to be more than a spectator of the ceremony. With an interpreter and instruction you are a participant in what is more than a ceremony---a meeting of host and guest within the framework taught by the Urasenke School of Tea. And surrounded by an authentic tea house with wood from the great temples of Nara, and centuries old tea ware, this is truly a once in a lifetime experience!!

I did this with my 12y.o daughter. It was a great experience. Even though we don't speak Japanese, the ladies looked after us and did our hair & makeup as well as dressed us. They were very friendly and polite. The dressing up was just as much fun as the walking about. We only lasted 90 mins in costume as it was a hot sultry day and a festival was on so very crowded when we walked to the temple.

บริการดีมากค่ะ เอาใจใส่ทุกรายละเอียดของการแต่งตัวเขาจะมีกิโมโนให้เราเลือกสีตามที่ชอบ และโอบิให้เราเลือกเองได้ แต่ตอนที่เราแต่งเราให้เขาช่วยเลือกกิโมโนให้เลยเพราะเราไม่รู้ว่าชุดไหนสีไหนเข้ากับตัวเรา เขาก็เลือกให้เลย น่ารักค่ะสไตล์คนญี่ปุ่นจะน่ารักๆเรียบร้อยเอาใจใส่และดูแลลูกค้าดี เราสามารถใส่ชุดไปเดินเล่นข้างนอกได้ด้วย แต่ต้องคืนก่อน6โมงเย็น.

Wear a real kimono? Check that off the bucket list and preserve those memories in one easy experience. The studio is conveniently located near to Meguro station, within walking distance, even for a two and three year old. The two owners are fluent in English and were EXCELLENT in helping to prepare and photograph my rambunctious toddlers...not an easy feat! Our family looked GREAT and the pictures are fantastic!
My only caution is that although the description reads "40 cuts", you actually only receive your top two choices and need to pay more in order to have all of your pics put onto a cd. It was still a reasonable price, it's just that we weren't expecting additional costs prior to arriving, although it was made clear to us at the beginning of the session.
All in all, the ladies went above and beyond to give us a wonderful family experience.
Dear HappyHawaiian, thank you very much for your review. We are very happy that you had a great time here. Yes, we had a very good time with your kids as well! And I really apprecaite your advice about the price. I've been thinking how to clearly state about the price of all of the pictures (with my limited English ability). We consider it and will state clearly for our customers' satisfaction. Arigato-gozaimasu :)
