Simply wonderful! The e tire experience was surreal. We went to a Temple to take pictures and Ronski and Hiroko were so professional and friendly. Rons is from NYC. So that was an added plus!!! Highly recommend

Ronski and Hiroko are lovely and passionate artists running this boutique business, who provide a very authentic and personalised experience. The kimono choices are beautiful, made of high quality silk. Hiroko makes sure every element of the dressing is perfect, and you can choose your colour combinations. For the photo shoot we were offered a choice of locations, including shrine or local suburb with historic architecture. Ronski makes you feel at ease when photographing, and it's not too posy. The photos turned out awesome! We were a little awkward walking around dressed up initially, but the locals were very courteous and complimented the kimono outfits, so it's nothing to be shy about. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Japan.
