Fun, informative, and interactive! Awesome museum guide. Two thumbs up!
It was absolutely amazing! Everyone was so informative and nice! The ninja experience was one of a kind! My husband is hard to please but he smiled the whole time!
An engaging, interactive and all round fun way to learn about the role of Samurai and Ninjas in Japanese history and a little of their fighting styles. The range of activities cater for all ages ; children to older adults, while the syst are patient, courteous and funny. Recommended experience for those wanting to learn and experience more about this key part of Japanese history and culture.
Takto was our instructor. He managed the merge and atmosphere of two groups that totaled 16 people. EVERYONE enjoyed this experience. It was an amazing workout!
It was an informative tour and I learned a lot! Ken was very outgoing, engaging and entertaining during his talks. It was a fun and interactive tour! Would definitely recommend! Fun!
Very intersting and the guide was engaging and knowledgeable
Amazing experience ! Learned lots of great history . Rei was a great tour guide ! Would recommend to anyone interested in the history and culture
A nice activity for a rainy Kyoto day. However the museum is very small and the tour groupes on a rainy day are very big and cramped up into small spaces. It was difficult to hear what the tour guide was saying since she used a headset and speakers which made her voice really distorted and hard to understand for us. The museum itself is very interesting but definitely meant and suited for families with children.
Dear guest, Thank you very much for visiting SAMURAI MUSEUM and for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the group size and limited space on a rainy day made the experience less comfortable, and that the audio equipment made the guide difficult to understand. We understand how important clear explanations and a comfortable environment are during the tour. At the same time, we are glad to hear that you found the museum itself interesting. Your comments have been noted and will be shared with our team as we continue improving our tour operation and audio setup. Best regards, SAMURAI MUSEUM
Myself and my family had a great time….. Our tour guide REI was very informative and fun. Very fun and friendly. Definitely recommend for a family visit
It was a fun experience to learn some samurai movement. The tour and museum is a bit sparse.
