Things to do in Gekkeikan Ōkura Sake Museum

Wow moment honestly!! The best tour we've experienced in Japan. Mayo thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and passion. As someone who doesn't really drink alcohol, you put your energy into including me and help me find the style of Nihonshu (sake) I do enjoy. From this moment forward I had the confidence to know what I wanted to read labels in Japan.

The tour guide was very friendly. We visited two wineries and one bar, and they also introduced some local architectural features and history. Although the second winery felt a bit like a shopping trip, overall it was good! The activity provided a total of 3+19 cups of sake, which definitely got us tipsy. 😂

So this activity is three parts in total. The first one takes you to a temple, then there is a beautiful boat ride that takes you to a dam and finally the sake tasting and optional sale. For those arriving by car, there is parking near the south exit. Our guide Claudia was proactive, interative and cooperative and made this activity fun with information sharing, whenever we sought it. She speaks good english and knows Kyoto well. We did this activity with a 5 month old, so you know thats entirely possible should you choose. Baby prams can be stored near the boat boarding point and rest rooms are available one you reach the dam or at the sake museum. There is a great presentation at the Sake musuem on the brewing process and history. All in all, I would recommend this activity to anyone looking for some good time with family / friends, including infants. Thank you. (Date of activity : 05/05/2026)

We had a fun afternoon tour with Bob! He was knowledgeable, friendly, and gave us a fantastic dinner recommendation. We would highly recommend this tour!

I participated in today's cherry blossom viewing event on the Fushimi Jikkokubune boat. I joined because I couldn't get a reservation online beforehand, so I had to book the activity through the Klook platform. However, the entire event went smoothly, and the spectacular cherry blossoms along the way were unforgettable. I was the first guest to check in, and luckily, my seat was in the front row, allowing me to enjoy an unobstructed view of the scenery on both banks. It was a truly memorable trip.

this was a good experience:) i didn’t have it planned before hand my original plans changed because of the weather so this was a great alternative option, great price, you can spend as long as you want exploring the exhibits, the team was so kind, and i was also able to book off klook while walking to teamlabs so that was also super nice and convenient, they also had free lockers!!

The experience was fun for the whole family. It wasn't too difficult to shave the wood, even for my 8 yr old. We chose Sugi, Walnut, Sakura, and Purple Heart. Victor K. was very helpful, professional, and patient. He provided clear instructions and helpful hints to make the beautiful chopsticks. You can tell he truly enjoys the craft of making chopsticks. The personalized engraving was a fun extra we all loved.

Very fun experience! Small plates are included in the price, though you can purchase larger plates or bowls of you want too. The team spoke very good English. We bought our tickets from Klook which was simple, I would recommend using what3words to find the location though as this is easier to find this way ///debt.promises.pinch

Ash and Wil guided us perfectly through this knife-making workshop. They demonstrated great knowledge of the technique and were attentive at every step to ensure our knives turned out perfectly. It was a wonderful activity and a lasting memory; now, every day when we cook, Japan will be in our thoughts.
