It was also inspiring to be with about 8 other guests, who were from several other countries around the world. In our tea ceremony alone, we had visitors from Russia, Israel, Poland, USA, Argentina, and a few others.

They were so good we actually went back after the tour to buy another. Our last stop on the tour was in a restaurant where a sushi chef cut and prepared fish for a sashimi bowl for all of us to enjoy. Everything we ate was delicious and I'm so happy we booked this experience. If you can, request Chi Haru/Sunny for yours!”

“My guide was kind and friendly and gave a nice tour. But the company itself was incredibly unhelpful and didn’t seem to care about my experience at all. They provided the wrong starting location and when I reached out to them they send the same wrong directions again and told me there was no refund and stopped all communication despite me contacting them repeatedly. Luckily I thought to look back into the details and I was able to piece together the starting point and found it on my own.
