What To Expect
Our award-winning tea ceremony in Tokyo offers both cultural enjoyment and meaningful learning.

You’ll also gain insight into the history of the tea ceremony, Japanese culture, and proper tea etiquette. You will then prepare your own bowl of matcha, carefully whisked under the tea master’s guidance. This hands-on moment allows you to experience the calm, focus, and hospitality at the heart of Japanese tea culture. A selection of elegant kimonos is available, and our staff will assist with dressing to ensure a refined appearance. Wearing a kimono enhances the authenticity of your tea ceremony experience.

5.00We really enjoyed this activity. All the ladies were friendly and helpful. We were given time to pick a kimono, and they help you put it on and do your hair. During the ceremony, we learned some traditions and how to make the matcha. Afterwards, there is time for photos on the patio. We were also able to wear the kimonos and walk to the nearby shrine.

5.00Our group of 8 had a ton of fun time dressing in traditional kimonos and learning about the intricacies of the tea ceremony and other aspects of Japanese culture. Our teenagers both male and female thanked me for arranging such a fun session. We also had some great photo ops and enjoyed how efficiently the place was run and how smoothly everything went. I especially appreciated the special chairs and tables for us folks who might’ve had some flexibility challenges with kneeling or sitting directly on the tatami. Our host spoke perfect English and was most gracious. I highly recommend this activity and Maikoya; you will enjoy it!

The beautiful woman who did our demonstration was personable, super informative and taught us so much. The tea rooms are beautifully decorated and it was very nice to learn how to make our own matcha. A highly recommended activity.
