Things to do in Hamarikyu Gardens

It was great to have the essences of Japanese culture including sumo wrestling, seafood market, traditional garden with a taste of Japanese tea and dessert, Buddhist temple and Tokyo Tower in one go. A class choice.

Excellent show! What an energy to the show!! and Theo was brilliant as the MC. Truly made the show come alive! I left with a lovely understanding of the Sumo culture. Also great thanks to Hiro and Koji for their humour and enthusiasm through the show!! and answering my questions!!

It was a great experience. I got chopsticks that I made myself, and they turned out amazing. My boyfriend chose Sonokeling wood; it's hard, but he did a great job. I liked Yakusugi; it was my favorite type of wood from the first time I saw it.

I highly recommend booking Shibuya Sky in advance for the very first time slot at 10:00 AM. From 10:00 AM onwards, visitors enter continuously by time slot, and since people don't just stay for an hour—many stay much longer—congestion builds up on the observation deck between the earlier and later groups. The more crowded it gets, the harder it is to take photos or comfortably enjoy the view. This applies to both Shibuya Sky and Tokyo Skytree. Personally, I preferred the structure of Shibuya Sky (45th floor, glass walls, open-air space, rooftop) over Tokyo Skytree (maximum height 634m, observation deck at 450m, entirely indoors). However, Tokyo Skytree might be a better choice during very hot or cold weather. Booking online through Klook is great because you can get about a 10% discount. Nowadays, if you don't book online in advance, it's practically impossible to buy tickets on-site.

Amazing experience. Rick is very calm and patient, an excellent tutor. This was honestly a really cool shake affordable experience and I have memories that will last forever from this... and a fancy new pair of chopsticks! 😁

I booked this and the Kintsugi art class they offer and was so impressed. The staff were amazing and the place is amazing! My husband and I started with making chopsticks. They have a couple you can choose from that were included or you can upgrade to some other chopstick options. We went with the ones included. We worked with Umar and he was so patient and kind to explain each step of the process. For a small additional fee you can also have your name engraved in Japanese which we did! I would highly recommend adding this to your next trip to Tokyo!

This is such an amazing experience! The water section was by far our favorite. This is great for couples or friends or families. They had some neat areas especially for kids! I definitely recommend picking the earliest spot in the day as it gets busier as the day progresses.

my mom and I came here to get something to bring home as a souvenir that we could use and show off, and we did not regret it! the instructor Laura was very involved and patient with us, as it could be intimidating to deal with new equipment and we had to be careful to not break our rings in the process. I got a vintage coin from the Taisho era and it was a nice reminder of Japan. my mom got a vintage Singaporean coin from the 70s as it was nostalgic for her. both turned out comfortable and beautiful, we can't wait to show them off to our friends and family!

Absolutely beautiful experience! Feels truly magical to walk through the ‘Borderless’ world within. Highly recommend to all. Also super affordable. I do wish when I booked i realised the closing time was 10pm though (8:30pm slot) as the cafe doesn’t take orders past 9pm, so keep this in mind when booking!
