5.00This experience was easily one of the highlights of our trip. My friend loved putting on the kimono robes and sandals. I wish I had lost a little weight before this but I was glad they had my size and I was able to fit the robes as well. The whole tea ceremony was super interesting because every move is thought through. The calligraphy was fun, too, even though it's not as easy as it looks. The photo shoot was great fun, too! I appreciate the two ladies working there as they were very kind and pleasant and laughed along with us. This is a must do when visiting Japan1
Great experience, friendly staff.
