My mom and I had a wonderful time with this experience. Despite the rain, we had fun with the photoshoot and we learned a lot about Japanese culture. Sayoko was very nice and pleasant to talk to. She took really good care of me and my mom and she made our first kimono experience enjoyable and unforgettable. I will definitely recommend this to my family and friends. Thanks, again, Sayoko!

This morning with Sayoko will remain one of our best memories of Japan. Both professional and friendly, she immersed us in the world of Kimono, Shinto shrines, and Tea ceremony. An absolutely essential discovery of Japanese culture! And the magnificent photos allow us to relive the moment with our loved ones who remained in France.

Sayoko was very sweet, polite and professional in every step. I really enjoyed the whole Japanese culture experience, from dressing room to best pictures spots. She took as many pictures as she could. Thank You so much for giving me that opportunity. Highly recommended for everyone,Renata.

The rain was the only part that was unpleasent in the activity. Everything else was excellent and Sayoko was really the best. Communication was smooth and clear, she provided all the information we needed and even picked us up from the hair salon. She helped us chose the best kimono and then helped us get dressed up in her place. She took us on a lovely walk to a nearby shrine for some awesome pictures (photographer included as part of our package). Sayoko always helped us all the way holding umbrellas and giving suggestions for the photo shoot. My wife got stopped on the street a couple of times as other tourists wanted to take photos with her. That was all credit to Sayoko.
Overall we enjoyed this activity very much, thank you Sayoko! Recommended without any hesitation!

Sayoko tended to me with much detail from the time I purchased this experience until even after I have the experience. I’m so grateful for her follow up and detailed directions if you are a solo traveler, I definitely would recommend any experience you can sign up for with Sayoko.

This was a well-organized kimono experience and the tour operator offers the option of getting your hair and makeup done, as well as a photographer to capture memories of your experience. This was the selling point for me as a lot of other places only let you rent a kimono and walk around in it for a day. Unfortunately it rained during my whole tour but it was still enjoyable and I had nice photos anyway. Some things to note are that you will have to choose the kimono online ahead of time, so please be aware of that, but there are many to choose from. A lot of similar tour operators have their locations in Asakusa, so it was nice to do this in a different location.

This was a wonderful experience for my daughter and myself. Sayoko was extremely helpful and made our kimono experience so special. She communicated with us and walked us through the process. She carefully dressed us and made us feel special as she educated us on how to worship in the shrine. She took lots of amazing pictures which I shared and got so many compliments on. As we walked through the streets the people were so kind and complimented us. I highly recommend this experience especially with a mother daughter experience. As a side note we did do the extra make up through this booking it was a salon, it was more of a Geisha makeup it is a whiter face style so this may be something to consider prior to booking.

This experience with Sayoko was amazing. She was so nice and welcoming. We enjoyed this cultural experience with her. We picked our favorite patterned kimonos and the pictures came out absolutely amazing! I highly recommend this experience if you want to immerse yourself in the beautiful Japanese culture.
