Things to do in Maihama

We arrived at DisneyLand at 7.30 and left the park at 8.30 to say we had a big day was an understatement, we chose to go down the fast passes avenue as we really did not want to wait in lines with kids. it worked for us! I will say if I was more organised we could have done it more efficiently but figuring it out as we went along was awesome too! So many favourites but one that stood out for us was The big thunder Mountain! kids ages were 10 and 7!

It was a very nice experience. I was the only person participating on that day/time, which was nice because I was able to take my time with the ironing. The woman was very kind and we chatted. The music and rain outside was very relaxing. I purchased the entire set (kimono, obi, obiage, obijime, and collar). The total price was about 21,000¥ including the Klook booking (41$ or roughly 6,000¥). It was a bit expensive, but I think it was worth it as the quality is wonderful. Also this price is very affordable in comparison to first hand kimonos of equal quality. If I had attempted to buy this set first hand closer to the city, it easily would have been near 100,000¥ instead. They also sent me a follow up message with useful instructions on how to put on the ensemble for future reference. Outside of the shop a few minutes walk, there is a small community shrine, which I thought was nice as well.

Two hour drive with Alexis is fun! Four people in our group. The weather is great for this tour. In the beginning, it can be a bit scary. However, once we started drinking, you would find it eas! You can take metro to the nearby station and then by Uber.

This is an Experience you will not find anywhere else in the world at this level. my Driver Mia was fantastic and made the experience very enjoyable. It really did feel like you was in a movie. Gaijintuned is one of the best.

Amulet Making Experience (Since I booked both the amulet making and kimono changing experiences, the introductory text is shared.) Recently, I wanted to make a commemorative amulet myself, and a friend recommended this place, so I booked a visit to the "Shiomi Ryugu Shrine" for the experience. I don't usually come around Shiomi, and when I first arrived, it was indeed a bit unique, just as the Google Maps reviews described. The building is a small apartment-office complex, with many restaurants on the first floor. Although I had read the reviews beforehand, I couldn't help but wonder if it was a bit too unusual. As soon as we got downstairs, a Taiwanese staff member heard us speaking and immediately came to confirm our reservation and explain things, which instantly put us at ease. For the DIY amulet making experience, you can choose between styles with or without a photo frame. Once you've chosen your style, you can start making it. Besides us, there were many other groups of customers that day, including quite a few Japanese people and families with children, making it feel like an art class experience. So, it's not purely an attraction for overseas tourists. I originally thought making an amulet would just involve drawing and sticking things, but I was surprised by the vast array of materials available. (This place uses stamps for designs.) Plus, you can choose beads to weave, and we spent almost two hours working on it without finishing. We eventually had to rush to wrap it up because we really couldn't stay any longer.🤣 However, throughout the process, both the Taiwanese and Japanese staff were incredibly meticulous and friendly. They were almost always responsive and thorough with instructions and various other requests (and this was true for other customers as well). Their explanations about the amulets and the shrine itself were also very detailed. I'm very grateful to all the staff that day. Overall, I highly recommend this experience to anyone who has already done many things in Tokyo and isn't interested in shopping. I personally had a lot of fun and found it very fulfilling. Of course, this experience might not be for everyone, but if you come, you'll generally have a good takeaway, at least getting your own unique amulet.

Arigato To our guide, Toshi! We took a mercedes C180 all the way to APit, shibuya and also tokyo tower. My dad personally picked this tour as it is a hotel pickup compared to other tours which saves you the hassle of going to locations that may be far from you. In the end, it was an enjoyful experience and very worth it for money.

It was so fun making bonsai 🌿 We paid an extra 3000 yen to bring our bonsai home. The workshop itself was such a great experience, but the Bonsai Museum was truly incredible too. Seeing 1,200-year-old bonsai trees and enjoying the beautiful Japanese aesthetic was amazing 🤩 Use my code HELLOIMNGKLOOK for a discount when booking 😊
