Samurai Saiko

I had the opportunity to experience it with four American friends and their family. First of all, "SHOGUN STUDIO JAPAN " came out of the store and the atmosphere was wonderful with samurai armor lined up beautifully inside. I was also given the opportunity to drink matcha and smoked the photos and took them in earnest. All the staff were kind and humorous and convincing stars 5 for their explanation in English.

Fun and Cool Samurai Experience

It was great experience. We were able to put on the armors and the weapons. They help with the entire process, and it was so cool and fun. Definitely recommend if you want a taste of the samurai experience

Amazing Samurai Experience

It was amazing! The armors were so cool, they do a matcha ceremony, and they give you swords you can actually unsheathe. The smoke machine made the photos come out really cool. They allow you to buy some of the pieces and they were really nice. Very friendly even making small talk in English in case you don’t speak Japanese

Experiences that can be enjoyed by both foreigners and Japanese

I was very pleased with the service and the authentic armor. The tea-making experience came as a set, which was also a great point.

The last Ronin

You will not find a better studio to take you to feudal Japan. Besides all the fun I had using the gear and weapons, the crew was very warm and considerate. Madee felt among friends instead of just a crewman. And don't even get me started on the gear. Come check it out, and you'll know what I mean.
