Kyoto Mochi and Daifuku Making Class with Tea Tasting

$55$52

This Kyoto workshop offers a rare opportunity to create a Dry Bonsai made from real bonsai branches, combining traditional aesthetics with modern practicality. The workshop is led by a professional guide who can conduct the experience in both English and French, ensuring clear explanations and smooth communication for international guests. Unlike living bonsai, which require ongoing watering, pruning, and careful climate control, Dry Bonsai requires no maintenance at all. There is no soil, no risk of withering, and no special care needed after the workshop. Because it is lightweight and soil-free, Dry Bonsai can be safely and easily taken home, making it an ideal souvenir for travelers who want an authentic Japanese craft without travel restrictions. You’ll create a unique, long-lasting bonsai artwork that captures the spirit of Kyoto and the beauty of bonsai — designed to be enjoyed for years, not weeks.

One of the biggest attractions is the close connection between the idols and their fans. This is a rare chance to experience authentic Japanese pop culture like locals do. If you are curious about Japan’s underground entertainment scene, this event is perfect for you. Join us for a night full of energy, music, and unforgettable memories in Japan!

My Fuji Hakone excellent trip

Mizuho was an amazing guide/teacher. She made the experience wonderful. Our bus driver, Itchikura San was also very pleasant and a very safe driver. The day was very worthwhile and we were able to see Mt. Fuji after initial fog. The meal was delicious and plentiful. We also enjoyed the other activities in Hakone. I highly recommend this step.

We had an amazing trip to Mt Fuji with our guide Moon, who made the experience worth every penny. Moon was very knowledgeable about each of the places we visited throughout the day, and helped us navigate a cloudy start to see a full unobstructed view of Mt Fuji in the afternoon. His recommendations were perfect and we would thoroughly recommend this experience. Thank you Moon!

When in Rome…

Was a good entertaining show. More for fun than serious Sumo event. Food was good. Entertainers were very good. Great for smaller children as well. My son got to rumble with a sum wrestler - he didn’t win ;). We went to an earlier show. I am sure the later shows with free alcohol may get a little louder. 3:00 is good if you have smaller kids imo.

We had an amazing 6-hour private tour of Tokyo with Zenji! He was polite, helpful, incredibly knowledgeable, and so much fun to spend the day with.

Sadly cancelled due to weather - the refund process was superb

Sadly our drive was cancelled due to excess rain. I'm writing this as the refund process was seamless and quick. The operator cancelled and asked for the refund to be credited, I was advised to called the number on the app, it was answered quickly and the operator was friendly and efficient. The refund was on my card within 48hrs. It was reassuring that it happened so easily and created a trust for me to book future outings knowing that the refund process etc is handled so professionally.

Mizuho is the best!

Mizuho was a fantastic guide. She was patient and very accomodating with the group. Her english was excellent and she was very clear to understand. Even though one couple on the tour was constantly late at multiple rendezvous points, she kept her cool and politely reminded everyone to be on time. I love her spirit and enthusiasm. She shared a lot of Japanese history and culture. This was the perfect way to get an overview of Tokyo in a very short amount of time. I would totally recommend Mizuho to anyone going on any of her tours.

Allyssa_S, Oct 2026

AMAZING! Highly Recommend!

This was by far mine and my partner's favorite experience! We unintentionally had a "private" session since we went on a Monday at 2pm. We were fortunate that the team was able to accommodate our time change due to other variables on the trip, which worked out since we got to do this experience before the downpour of rain at night. My partner and I felt like celebrities since people kept taking pics of us around Shibuya. Orko was an amazing guide and took photos of us whenever we were at a stop light. He made the experience fun and memorable and sent us the images right away when we were done. Would highly recommend to anyone if you have time to add it to your itinerary! Make sure to get those IDP's! That and your passport are very important since they will ask you about it a few days before the start of the event.
