Experience Details
Tea has been around for thousands of years and is enjoyed by people all around the world, but Japan is one of the countries that gives true importance to tea and the tea-making process, culminating in the powerful ritual of the Japanese tea ceremony. During the Saitama Sayama Tea Farm Tour, you get to enjoy the experience of picking your own tea leaves while wearing a traditional dress made especially for this occasion. You will learn where the leaves come from and how they are produced. After that, it’s tea making time! Make your own fresh hand-rolled tea and tea leaf tempura, which is something you don’t get to see every day. This tour is perfect for those people who are enthusiastic about how the world of tea works and it’s also a great way to bond with family and friends.
