Kimono Tea Ceremony Experience at Kyoto Orizuruya, Gion

It was a unique experience that I thoroughly enjoyed, from getting fitted in the kimono and having my hair styled, to the incredible tea ceremony where everything was explained, and even being able to wear the kimono to walk around the city. Highly recommended.

We had a lovely time experiencing a traditional Japanese tea ceremony in Kyoto. Dressing up in kimonos was great fun and made the experience even more special. It was a wonderful introduction to Japanese hospitality and the fascinating traditions and rituals of preparing matcha tea. A charming and memorable experience that we would happily recommend!

The service was simply exceptional. I tried on a Japanese kimono, took gorgeous photos, and enjoyed them alongside the aroma of matcha. Thumbs up! Such a happy experience.

One of the best experiences we had in Kyoto, the tea ceremony was very interesting. We would definitely love to go back.

We loved the experience. The choice of kimonos and the ceremony were very beautiful and intimate.

It was a wonderful experience from beginning to end. The staff were helpful and ensured that all the guests were taken care of. The green tea ceremony was beautiful and educational at the same time. The bonus was that we didn’t know we could walk around the area in the kimonos which was awesome to take photos. I highly recommend doing this if you are in Kyoto. Don’t think twice!

Such a beautiful and memorable Kyoto experience! Although our initial greeting wasn’t the friendliest, everything improved once we went upstairs. The staff were kind, welcoming, and efficient while helping us into our kimonos without feeling rushed. Coco’s tea ceremony was beautiful and deeply meaningful, while the calligraphy was fun, calming, and a little exciting. Walking around afterward to take photos in our kimonos made the experience even more special. A wonderful way to experience Japanese culture and a cherished Kyoto memory!

A little apprehensive, particularly my husband, but from the moment we arrived it was a truly wonderful experience. From choosing your kimono right down to the making of the matcha tea, everything was fun, precise, informative and professionally done. We couldn’t have wanted a better experience. I would recommend everyone do this.

This whole experience was top notch! From the experience of getting ready in a kimono to the explanation of the tea ceramony and the history behind it. The staff was exceptional and my husband and I truly believe this was one of the highlights of our trip so far.

great experience. good quality and such lovely people.
