From the moment I made our reservation, the communication with the instructor was fast and reliable giving me answers to any concerns or questions. Such responses were greatly appreciated since we were unfamiliar with Sapporo. Wonderfully, it was a short walk from our hotel in Susukino.
The workshop where the class was held was easy to find especially since the instructor waited outside the building with a clear sign. The worship area was easily accessible by elevator. Erica and Hina clearly and patiently instructed us in English with constant attention. The class was organized and all supplies were provided. There was a varied range of woods with concise explanations of each type for our selection. Guidance throughout the process is patient, friendly and supportive. They even provided a variety of decorations and packaging styles which enhanced our handmade chopsticks. It was truly an enjoyable hour or more with a beautiful and practical souvenir as a result of our own work. We emphatically recommend this workshop while in Sapporo. Arigato, Erica and Hina!
Making chop sticks with your own hand touched uniqueness is fun for the whole family! The guides were friendly and helpful!
Wonderful experience, fun and informative. The instructor was patient and easy to understand. It was hard to find the location as we weren't familiar with the streets or could read Japanese.
This experience was SO MUCH fun!
It’s a must try if you are in the area.
Michi-san was super sweet and friendly.
Activity provider gave me confusing direction to their location, then cancelled in the midst of me finding location. To Viator - Hey Viator, where’s my refund?
This was a wonderful experience. My kids and I enjoyed it very much. Even though Michi did not speak English, we were able to easily communicate using Google Translate. She was very warm and welcoming. She did not rush us during the activity. My kids said it was their favorite activity in Sapporo! We have a souvenir to remember our trip!
It is a very fun and hands-on experience. The instructor is incredibly nice and helpful throughout the entire process. From selecting the wood type, to planing and sanding down the sticks, and then finally oiling and packaging the final product - every step itself was simple but fun. For travellers who speak English, key introductions and directions are provided in English, and a translation app is used for additional side conversations, questions, and follow-ups. Overall, it was a really great way to spend an hour in Sapporo, and it's always nice when you have something physical you can take away from an experience to remember it by.
This is easy to find. It is a lot of fun. The instructor is very kind. Everyone in my group enjoyed the activity and we took home a souvenir that we made. The chopsticks turned out beautifully.
Was a great experience using hand tools to create traditional Japanese chopsticks. Would recommend to people of all ages
Special Experience! Friendly, encouraging, and patient.
I definitely would recommend, when you travel to Sapporo.
Unique activity in a small quiet studio. The team gives a lot of individual attention and guidance while letting you customize your chopsticks to your liking. I don’t speak any Japanese but had no trouble understanding all the instructions.
Even as a solo traveler, this was a lot of fun. And regardless of how well you make your chopsticks, one thing is certain: they will be uniquely yours (as opposed to nearly anything you might buy). Definitely memorable and worthwhile.
Hubby and I had a wonderful time learning to make chopsticks with Erika! It was such a neat experience, and we now have very unique souvenirs to remember our trip by. Erika is very friendly and helpful, especially after I picked an insanely hardwood to create my chopsticks with. I highly recommend this unique and fun experience!
This class was such a wonderful experience, and Erika truly made it unforgettable as an incredible teacher. It gave us a whole new appreciation for the craftsmanship, precision, and dedication that goes into making chopsticks.
An incredible experience to partake in during your time in Sapporo. Erika was extremely helpful and informative, a great guide for this workshop. 5 stars and would recommend everyone who can to give this a try!
It’s a fun way to make a personal souvenir while in Japan, Erika is great and made the process easy for us!
This is a lovely experience with my spouse. We left our children at the hotel nearby but I think they would have enjoyed the experience. I left with my hands a little sore as having picked a wood that required some force to shape. From shaping, to sanding, and packaging it was a fun experience! Something that is unique and will capture a great memory from Japan.
One of the most relaxing, unique, and enjoyable experiences I’ve ever booked. Erika was super sweet, accommodating, and helpful. This experience is great for anyone looking for a souvenir for themselves or even a something to enjoy with a friend or partner in Sapporo. Location was easy to find as well. I would highly recommend giving this a shot if you find you’re in the area!
Erika is a wonderful host, fun and informed and friendly. We were able to select our own wood blanks from a multitude of species, and use authentic Japanese tools to make our own chopsticks. Highly recommend this experience as a fun and unique opportunity. Thank you, Erika!
