Lovely experience!

Booked an experience through magical trips and the ladies were polite and a nice range of kimonos although a lot of things were at an additional cost so bear this in mind when booking but well worth it in my opinion! Geto-san was a fabulous photographer and really nice guide. Overall great experience. Thank you!

Awesome kimono photo shoot/tour

I had an amazing experience using this company and having Gota as our photographer. What makes this experience so unique is that you get to dress up in a beautiful kimono of your choosing as well as take beautiful photos while getting a tour of some of the most popular attractions in Tokyo. Gota is a very skilled photographer who was very patient, kind, and has an awesome eye and attention to detail in order to get your best shots! I was thoroughly impressed with the entire process. This was one of my most memorable experiences so far in Tokyo and Gota largely contributed to making it that way. Additionally, our photos were sent to us very timely. The staff were also very helpful and patient and took the time to help us choose the kimono that most complimented us. Don't hesitate to book this activity and request Gota if you can. You will not be disappointed!!

KIMONO QUEEN AND BEST PHOTOGRAPHER!!!

GOTA is THE GOAT!!! I HAD THE BEST TIME GETTING EDUCATED DURING THE TOUR AND FEELING LIKE A QUEEN IN A KIMONO!! He had several ideas for photos, amazing direction, patience when we went to the KIMONO shop. I legit referred someone to him while on the photo shoot lol. That's how great he was. Will visit when I'm back in another time. I'm here to support this for sure!!!

Kentake is a great guy! Very likable and entertaining - I really liked your initiative and you could also tell how much experience and knowledge he has in the history of Japan. I can only recommend it to everyone! 👍👍

Fun family photos experience

This is one of the few experiences that included y children, 5 and 14 for me. My girls loved their kimonos, there was a stroller rental right across which was so amazing to keep my 5 year old engaged. Gota was our photographer. He was relaxed and fun. Introduced us to melon bread which was such a fun addition to our experience. I recommend an early morning or late evening to have less crowd if that works for your schedule.
