Mr. Li was our driver, and there were 6 adults in total (the children are quite large and already in high school). The driver was very kind, giving him a hundred points 💯. He would confirm the time the day before! He also drove slowly, allowing me to take pictures of the Shonan Monorail in Fujisawa 💕. Because the elders were almost 80 years old, they didn't have the energy to go to Enoshima station, so thankfully we chartered a car. We quickly got in the car and returned to the hotel, and the overtime was calculated reasonably. I hope the company can provide a larger vehicle for 6 adults in the future, otherwise it's a bit too cramped 😂 Cleanliness: Very good 👍 Service: Very good 👍

Erika helped me throughout the entire process she’s very sweet and speaks a bit of English. I picked the high end package and paid extra there for the better accessories I wanted but the package came with some lovely choices.

Very beautiful selection of yukatas and kimonos. The staff was very friendly and polite and was very professional in dressing me and doing my hair. The best part is everything is already included in the price (hairdo, hair accessories, bag and shoes). Will definitely be back again when I visit Kamakura again! ❤️

It was wonderful to be able to wear a kimono and have my hair styled. It was a little disappointing that there weren't many types and patterns of kimonos available. However, the staff were very friendly and easy to talk to, so I would love to use this service again if I have the chance. Thank you for the great memories.

The tea ceremony felt very authentic and real. We loved that it was smaller and not so commerical and touristy. it was a little hard to find the location, but we figured it out. Would absolutely recommend.

What to know before visiting Kamakura

Quick snapshot of Kamakura's travel rhythm

Kamakura is a compact destination where Tours and Cultural experiences dominate bookings, with smaller but notable interest in Massages and outdoor activities. Demand on Klook rises and falls through the year, peaking in early summer and dipping in late winter.

Best months to visit and how prices move

Klook booking data shows the busiest month is June, while February is the quietest. Prices are relatively stable most of the year: they trend slightly higher around July and May and dip toward November. For lower prices and smaller crowds, consider visiting in February or the autumn months when demand is lower; if you want the peak-season atmosphere, June offers the liveliest local vibe. Overall, demand and prices only partly move together here—June is very busy while price peaks are slightly later in July.

Tips for travellers from Singapore

Most travellers from Singapore typically book about two weeks ahead, with many last-minute bookings possible up to around four days before. If you plan to travel in the busy June period, aim to book activities a couple of weeks in advance to secure popular Tours and Cultural experiences; for quieter months you can be more flexible and often book closer to your trip on Klook.
