    Unforgettable experience!

    Candice_M, Mar 2026
    Momoka provided such a beautiful selection of kimonos to choose from, complete with all the accessories and adornments. I felt truly styled and received so many compliments while capturing amazing photos in the heart of Gion, Kyoto. This experience was truly one of a kind and it doesn’t get much better than this while visiting Japan. I’m so grateful for the memories created and the overall experience. Without a doubt, this was one of the highlights of my trip and simply unforgettable.

    The best kimono rental in town, the owner is such a lovely person, she helped me with my hair & make up, the best experience while in Kyoto 🔝💯

    Amazingly kind and beautiful kimonos

    Naima_G, Aug 2025
    Such incredible courtesy and kindness, the woman who helped my three daughters here was amazing. She was patient, kind, and made them each feel beautiful. My daughters are very tall and have extremely curly hair, but they felt just like anyone else and she took extreme care to treat them like princesses. This experience was so much fun for my daughters and worth every cent. The kimono options were beautiful!

    Great experience
