Enjoy an authentic Japanese tea ceremony and kimono experience in Asakusa.

About this activity

This is an authentic tea ceremony experience that you can enjoy at a table seat, without needing to sit seiza style, in between sightseeing in Asakusa and Tokyo Skytree. In a quiet room, you'll first observe a traditional tea ceremony demonstration by an instructor up close, and then savor high-quality matcha and seasonal Japanese sweets from an authentic tea ceremony. Afterwards, you can experience a special "two-cup experience" where you prepare your own matcha using real tea utensils.

Before the experience, you can choose your favorite kimono from a wide selection of designs and have it fitted (optional, free of charge). Photo shoots in kimono are also popular. Since it's a sitting-style experience, there's no strain on your legs or back, making it safe for beginners, those with children, and families to participate. Clear English support is available, which is popular with international visitors. This is a rare tea ceremony experience in Japan where you can wear a kimono and experience "seeing, tasting, and preparing" all at once.
