Amazing experience to learn the art of the tea ceremony with strong historical roots in Kyoto. This is a very traditional experience and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Aya answered all of our questions and was easy to talk to. We also left with beautiful photographs to be able to cherish the memories of the experience. Highly recommend!!!
