Quioto: Cerimônia Tradicional do Chá com Matcha e Doces em Gion

I had an absolutely wonderful experience today. I learned so much about the history of matcha, which was unexpected. The hosts were friendly and spoke great English. I will definitely visit them again on my next trip to Kyoto.

とても有益で素敵なホストでした。素晴らしい時間をありがとうございました。日本の茶道文化について学ぶことができて、本当に楽しかったです。

The tea ceremony was really enjoyable, and it was very interesting to see how this culture is lived. Teacher: Our Tea Master, Kenta-san, was very friendly and explained all the important details to us – he also took the time to answer further questions. Experience: The value for money was also great! Thank you for the wonderful experience!

Highly recommend this experience of the tea ceremony! It was very insightful and so inspirational. My family of six has discovered a new love and admiration for green tea, now we will all be having matcha! Yuko was an amazing teacher, she taught us so much about the history of tea, their ceremonies and how to correctly prepare a matcha. Also, got superb recommendations of where to purchase matcha and temples to visit!

The Tea Master vividly and understandably explained the fascinating history of matcha and the tea ceremony. It was very pleasant to listen to her, and she attentively engaged with each person. I can only recommend this event! It's a beautiful moment to unwind, take time to learn something new, and share it with others.

We had a wonderful, intimate tea ceremony with Yuko. Her warm hospitality and gentle guidance made the experience truly special. A beautiful and memorable way to enjoy this tradition—highly recommended!

10/10 experience with our tea master Mai who gave us such a vast amount of information throughout the ceremony. She was also patient and helpful when assisting us to make our own matcha tea. The sweets provided were also phenomenal and we went on to purchase some from the store recommended during the ceremony. Incredible experience.

Our tea ceremony in Kyoto was one of the highlights of our trip to Japan. The setting was peaceful and authentic, and the ceremony gave us a wonderful insight into Japanese culture and the traditions behind matcha. Our tea master, Fumika, was outstanding. She was warm, knowledgeable, and explained every step with patience and passion, making the experience both engaging and memorable. She created a relaxed atmosphere while sharing the history and meaning behind the ceremony. Preparing and enjoying matcha in such a traditional setting was a truly special experience. If you’re visiting Kyoto, I highly recommend this tea ceremony, especially with Fumika. It’s a beautiful cultural experience that we’ll remember for years to come.

Amazing experience with such kind sharing of an intimate part of the Japanese culture. The staff made it very clear as to how important these ceremonies are.

The space was carefully thought of and prepared for the tea ceremony. The host was welcoming and the Tea master - Ruo was knowledgeable (12 years as a tea master). She was able to explain history, process, Japanese words and little details about the dessert and etc. It was such a harmonious experience, and it certainly made me appreciate the concept more. I was glad it was done in a small group setting that allowed for a more peaceful experience. They were courteous to remind us we can take pictures but not videos, but the whole ceremony really requires for you to be mindful and present so we didn't take a lot of photos. They allowed us to take photos with Ruo, after. My friend and I truly enjoyed this experience and would not hesitate to book with them again. Thank you to the hosts!
