It might be helpful to practice making cranes and turtles before putting on your daruma . Also it’s rather difficult to find . I walked past the meeting spot without even seeing it . I had to ask 3 people for directions after the taxi dropped me off in a business section of Ginza . It was my first night and first time in Tokyo …a bit overwhelming! My leader was very helpful and knowledgeable.

We also truly appreciate your feedback regarding the location and instructions. We understand how finding the meeting point can be challenging, especially on your first night in Tokyo, and we will work on improving our directions to make it easier for future guests. Thank you as well for your suggestion about preparation—it’s very helpful as we continue to improve the Daruma Painting Experience. We hope to welcome you again in the future!

We had a fun time painting and learning about these Japanese dolls. Our session was just my husband and I so we had a one on one experience
