Plan description

This plan involves visiting a traditional Japanese townhouse, a "machiya," and participating in a tea ceremony in Kyoto wearing traditional attire. First, upon arrival, you will be quickly dressed in a kimono made from genuine silk. You will then be guided around the townhouse, built in the Meiji period. Enjoy tea while listening to an explanation about the tea ceremony in the tea room. Everyone can enjoy tea in either a tatami or hall, where you can sit in chairs. Feel free to take photos during your stay and fully experience Japanese culture.

We cannot accommodate customer requests, so we ask for your understanding.
