  You simply will not find a more fascinating, enjoyable, and culturally and historically rich experience in Kyoto than this one! Our group of four adults was absolutely mesmerized by the authentic tea ceremony (conducted by a tea master who had studied for fourteen years to reach this level of mastery). This was followed by the rare opportunity to dress in kimonos (women) and haoris (men), and then to do a "junmai" (pure) sake tasting, all in the 300-plus year old home of a samurai family. This tour is the real deal; a true privilege in every sense. If you do nothing else during your time in Kyoto, try to take advantage of this exceptional experience. It was truly amazing!

  We were warmly welcomed into the beautiful home of our host which is on a quiet street within a short walk of the Kyoto train station. First, we were presented an orientation to the tea ceremony. The ceremony itself was beautifully conducted by a master with 40 years of experience in the art. After the ceremony our host outfitted my son and I in samurai robes and swords and directed us in multiple poses for photos. When the photo session was finished, we had the option to personally go thru the steps of preparing the tea or to do a sake tasting of several locally produced spirits. We chose the later and had a chance to learn a little about local sakes. The experience was very personal and exceeded our expectations.

  This was one of the most memorable and authentic experiences we had in Kyoto. Set in a 300-year-old samurai house, the private tea ceremony was intimate and steeped in tradition. Our host—descended from a samurai clan—welcomed us into his ancestral home with grace, offering a glimpse into a quieter, more deliberate way of life. The ceremony was beautifully conducted in a traditional tea room, using high-grade organic Uji matcha. We learned the principles of Cha-Do, and the experience felt peaceful, educational, and deeply rooted in centuries of culture. Afterward, we chose to whisk our own matcha using a bamboo chasen—a fun and hands-on way to connect with the ritual. There was also a chance to dress in a traditional kimono and pose with a katana, which made for some memorable photos. Everything was thoughtfully paced—personal, never rushed, never commercial. If you're looking for a quiet, authentic moment in Kyoto—away from the crowds—this is absolutely worth booking. A rare opportunity to experience Japanese culture from within its own walls, with sincerity and soul.

• Great experience!

  Wonderful authentic experience with a kind and knowledgeable guide. Really cool getting to experience an authentic tea ceremony in a real samurai house where the guide’s family has lived for generations. Our guide was kind and knowledgeable answering all our questions and catering the experience to us specifically. Highly recommend!
