Reviews
My son's & I thoroughly enjoyed this experience. The two instructors were friendly, kind, respectful and patient. It was a lot of fun dressing up & learning how to handle the Samurai sword with a fun photo shoot at the end. Highly recommended.
Amazing experience! very welcoming and friendly environment from the moment you arrive. Definitely something worth booking again while in Japan. We will be coming back in the future and bringing along friends to experience this, well worth the money for what you get out of the class. You get to do a performance at the end and have fun with it along with the photos and videos you get to keep long after it.
An OUTSTANDING experience. The instructors were very knowledgeable and patient. Re-enacting a samurai movie scene was my favorite part! Honestly, the whole experience was. From the moment you walk in you can see the professionalism they deliver (clean facility, clothes, swords, etc. I HIGHLY recommend this experience. The instructors were Kei and Ryu.
The whole Samurai experience was great! Our instructors were very passionate with their teachings. We were able to perform a performance by the end of the program. We had a great time and thank you for making the experience amazing. I really recommend this activity
We had an amazing and fun experience being a samauri, professional instructors teaching us the movements and we get to do a bit of acting too. 100% will recommend this activity when you’re in Tokyo.
Brilliant experience, the instructors were so helpful, patient and fun. The best thing to do in Tokyo for us
Had a wonderful time!I loved the instructors and they were very nice and patient. Im a senior citizen(a ba-chan) but was able to do the sword movements and have alot of fun doing it. People should try it and give it a try. My husband and friends had fun too.
I couldn't find alot of reviews online but really it was great ,close to the station ,not a tourist trap and fun for adults and kids alike,specially with kids who love samurai . The staff are very friendly and it is really worth it. It is one hour ,they teach you 10 moves ,then they do a scene and all the participants do it . This part was FUN and we all had a good laugh. they even had a toy samurai sword for a 2.5 year old child to keep her entertained since it isn't her age to participate.
Great experience!! Learn the techniques of Samurai. Also the dresses. Very nice!
We had a great time at the Samurai experience. Th instructors were informative and we learned a lot
