Such a memorable experience, with lovely staff that were so kind and patient with our 3 little kids. We all enjoyed it and now have a special momento from Japan. The location is ideal for visiting the nearby temple and shopping area! 10/10 add it to your trip!
Such a fun and wonderful experience! Making my own chopsticks was really interesting and enjoyable. It was a great way to create a special souvenir and a lovely memory of my trip to Japan. I really enjoyed it!
Very good experience, Sasha and Hiromi were great guides, very kind and very clear in their explanations and interactions. I recommend them.
We had a great time making chopsticks! It was generally a fun experience, and the staff was knowledgeable and helpful. One person in our group was unlucky and struggled with a really difficult piece of wood, and needed a extra time and help to finish. The staff ensured him to take all the time he needed to finish, and would not accept any additional payment even though we spent over twice as long as our allocated time. One of the staff members, Ayaka, was especially helpful. Definitely recommend the experience, and we got a nice souvenir to bring home.
I am a solo traveller & this is my first time in Japan. I wanted to have a cultural experience so found this chopsticks making class on Klook. Prior to my arrival, I received an email further providing the directions to the building which was very helpful & very clear. I arrived on time & was met by 3 sensei’s who greeted me & explianed what the session would entail. I assumed that I would be doing a group session but to my surprise, I was able to have a private session which enhanced my experience altogether! Rino was very pleasant, sweet, friendly & informative. She ensured I understood & made me feel comfortable. I thoroughly enjoyed my session today & made a memory that will last forever! Thank you to the entire team at Chopsticks Studio Asakusa!
This was one of the most unique experiences I’ve ever had! The staff were so kind and helpful, and i had so much fun making my own chopsticks!! I highly recommend this shop!;)
I had the pleasure of meeting 2 people who worked with me in making my chopsticks. Very respectful, very helpful, and allowed me to learn as they gave the best advice. please apply them!!!
The staff were very kind and answered all my detailed questions and requests! I even use the chopsticks I bought there at home because I love them so much! Even if they aren't perfectly uniform, it doesn't affect their use at all, and I really like their handmade look!
This was one of our favorite activities! It was the perfect way to spend an hour. The best souvenir to take him. The building is right around the corner from Senso-ji Temple so it is a great activity to add to your itinerary when in Asakusa
They speak English, which is helpful. The staff are great in guiding you. Just get ready to put some work into making your chopsticks. Highly recommend.
