Things to do in Yasaka Shrine

Chose this tour instead of others because of the Nara portion. LOVED IT! Was able to see many checkpoints in one day, which was very convenient for me. Alex was very knowledgeable and a great guide! Highly recommend!!!!!

Incredible experience, Sensai provided great guidance whilst we created our pottery. Location is easy to find and prices are great value for money. Appreciate they offered to take plenty of photos for us too. Highly recommend this experience, it was a highlight of our trip, we would do it again in a heartbeat.

Kimono rentals are always a must, and this studio definitely delivered! They were friendly and gentle when assisting with dressage and hair, and their kimono selection is beautiful. Just be careful of which location you booked! I didn’t realize I booked to go to a different one, but since it’s the same owner, they still serviced me flawlessly.

Wonderful experience - very considerate and warm! We had booked women's, men's, and children's kimonos. It was quite crowded and a bit chaotic at pickup. Since I'm on the autism spectrum and quickly feel uncomfortable in such situations, I wrote a message in advance. The team responded immediately and accompanied us to a quieter store nearby. The staff member was incredibly friendly, patient, and understanding. The kimonos were beautiful and high quality - we felt very comfortable and special all day long. A truly great and empathetic experience that I can recommend to anyone!

Shin our guide was really great, had a great amount of information on the area and local shrines and temples. it was a good pace, plenty of time to ask questions and the crowds weren’t too bad. Shin contacted me the day before, and on the day to set up our meeting, everything was just easy.

An amazing experience! 💕 Thank you to the ladies in the shop for carefully recommending kimono outfits for us, and for styling a very cute hairstyle. My boyfriend's look was super imposing 😂. Luckily, we booked an external photographer in advance 📷. The photos are really beautiful! Before returning the kimono, the staff even lent us a prop sword for photos, a very fun experience!

It’s the best experience wearing kimono for me. the staffs are so nice and helpful. you can try colors and matching until you are sure. they don’t rush and suggest the style if we have no idea. The price might more than other places but the quality is very good and suitable for the price.

We had a wonderful photoshoot experience for our family, Rin was so professional, responsive, kind, and patient even with our 6 year old! We loved how our photos turned out! Thank you so much to Rin for capturing these special memories on our first trip to Japan!
