Our host, Kaori, was very nice and friendly. She patiently explained the steps for all the participants when it was their turn and answered any questions we had. It was very cool that apart from the actual tea ceremony experience, she also introduced us to some of the history behind tea ceremonies. My partner and I enjoyed the experience and would recommend it to anyone looking to experience a tea ceremony in a traditional building in Kyoto.

Hiro was an amazing host! The tour ended up with just me and he made sure to go out of his way to make it extra special. We tried different types of local Japanese izakaya places and there was so many different varieties of food. He then took me to explorethe Gion district at night and knew all the perfect spots to see magical Kyoto. I could not have asked for a more perfect experience thanks to my guide Hiro.

We were so warmly welcomed by Midori, it was truly an amazing experience! Not only did she teach us how to cook some staple Japanese dishes (which were delicious), but she also gave us some really good tips for our trip based on our interests. We definitely recommend this cooking workshop to everyone, it's just so much fun and we really learned a lot. The lovely host Midori made this an experience we will never forget!

Our tour today with Madori was amazing. It felt like a friend was showing us around Kyoto. As visitors to Kyoto I doubt we would have found the places Madori took us to. The food and drinks at all 3 places were delicious. Madori didn’t want us to miss out on any experiences while we are in Kyoto and gave us so many great recommendations for restaurants, cafés and local parks. Highly recommend doing the coffee&shopping tour.
