Cultural Half Day Trip in Asakusa

Join the Tour in a Kimono! Get coupon for an associated shop through this site and reserve a kimono! Please get dressed in your kimono before the scheduled meetup. Note: You are responsible for arranging your own kimono rental.
You will walk around explore the following areas with our guide.
・Asakusa’s History and Temples 
How was Sensoji Temple established, and what role did it play in local people’s lives?
We will walk around the grounds while learning about the most historical temple in Japan’s modern metropolis. Participants will learn how to properly offer a prayer, receive an omikuji (fortune slip), and other traditional Japanese manners.
・Local Lunch at a restaurant that only locals go
We take you to a local restaurant(they won't have English menu!) and we will enjoy Japanese local taste. Vegetarians/Vegans are also available if you let us know.
・Venture into Deep Asakusa 
We will visit an interesting neighborhood north of Sensoji Temple, that is left out of the explanations of many guides. Here you will find a plethora of local shops popular in Asakusa. As this neighborhood is close to a geisha district, you may even get a glimpse of geiko, or Japanese performance artists, passing by.
・Shopping at Kappbashi 
Amateurs and professionals frequent this lively shopping street filled with shops specializing in cooking tools, tableware, and restaurant supplies. You will come across the perfect Japanese cutlery or tableware when you visit!
During the tour, many photos will be taken by staff. These will be yours to receive for free, which you can share with friends and add to your memories.
