Loved our sumo experience. It was the highlight of our trip so far. The Sumo were so nice and came up to say hi after and let us take pictures with them. The host was very informative and friendly! Would booked again in a heartbeat.

I attended the Kintsugi gold repair private workshop in Kyoto yesterday. It was truly an amazing and fun experience. The Master explained very well the steps and guided me all the way. Nori the interpreter made everything easier. My “masterpiece” will be a reminder of this heart filling memory. Thank you!

We loved the Deeper Japan Sumo wrestling practice. It was so helpful to have the interpreter explain everything to us. I booked this because I thought my husband would like it, but actually it was fascinating. i enjoyed every minute!

Attended the flag dyeing workshop in Asahikawa yesterday. What a great experience! The history of both the company and the process added a deeper understanding of the experience. Mr. Kondo was very patient and encouraging. Highly recommend this workshop!
