Our guide (Yu) and teacher were awesome! Unfortunately it was raining and we had to do the ceremony inside, but we learned a lot and it was fun!
Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re very happy you enjoyed the experience and learned about matcha. Yu and your tea instructor will be delighted to hear this. We hope to welcome you again in Japan next time—hopefully under clear skies!
Yu and Taito were Fabulous! Due to rain, we moved Matcha making inside a studio. We learned history and how to properly make matcha. We were also offered to purchase the set and take home, which I did. We took train and walked through park of Sakura's. Yu went above and beyond - highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re truly happy you enjoyed both the indoor matcha experience and the short sakura walk despite the rain. If you visit Japan again in another season, we would love to welcome you back for a different experience as well!
My friend and I absolutely loved this experience!! It was the first activity we did on our first day in Tokyo and it was the perfect way to start our trip. Our guide/translator and tea ceremony teacher were both so incredibly sweet and welcoming, we felt at ease with them right away. We learned so much about sado, or the customs surrounding traditional Japanese tea ceremony, and got to enjoy delicious matcha (and even a matcha latte!) and sweets! Our guide also took us around the park to show us the cherry blossoms and ordered us dango from a vendor (which was so good). They were also so helpful and answered all of our questions about Japan (we had a lot, like why can't we find any trash cans?). I can't recommend this experience enough! I'm so happy we booked it, we had a really special and memorable time.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're so happy to hear this was the perfect start to your trip. It was a joy to share matcha, sweets, and cherry blossoms with you both! We loved your curiosity and great questions—especially about the mysterious lack of trash cans! Wishing you a wonderful rest of your stay, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime!
Amazing experience, so nice to be able to learn about the matcha culture and traditions. Very interesting! The guides were super nice and friendly as well. Also the park is beautiful, nice getaway from the rush of the city. Easy to get to.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're so happy you enjoyed learning about matcha and had a relaxing time in the park.It was a pleasure having you, and we're glad the peaceful vibe of Yoyogi Park added to the experience. Hope to see you again on your next visit to Tokyo!
It was such a nice cultural esperience, there is a hole process about how to taste the matcha, and the flavors was very intense. The location is very romantic, perfect for couples. All was amazing
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We're so happy you enjoyed the cultural experience and the rich flavors of matcha. The romantic setting really is special—perfect for couples, as you said! We’re glad everything felt amazing, and we’d love to welcome you again someday.
