【OUTLINE】
This is a special experience plan where you can learn about authentic tea ceremony and interact with Asakusa geisha. In the first half of the tour, you will have tea made by geisha. In the second half, with a guidance by a tea ceremony teacher, you will drink the tea made by yourself. A professional teacher will teach you carefully in a small group, and you can also take pictures with the geisha.
【HIGHLIGHTS】
- How invaluable! A geisha will make matcha tea just for you!
- Learn the authentic tea ceremony casually
- Make your own matcha tea.
- A great chance to see and talk to geisha up close and personal
- Enjoy shopping at a tea utensils shop where the tour is held.
【SCHEDULE】
1. We will meet up at the designated place and sanitize with alcohol and take body temperature.
2. We will have tea and sweets made by geisha
After having tea, we will interact with the geisha and take photos (* Geisha will be available until 16:00)
3. Take a lecture from the tea ceremony teacher and make your own tea.
4. Tea utensils shopping at the shop (* Each will be disbanded)
【DETAILS】
The venue is an authentic tea room with a nijiriguchi (a small entrance with a low back). A tea ceremony teacher will carefully teach you how to make tea, so don't worry even if you are the first timer. Normally, there is no chance to meet geishas, but the plan offers not only meeting them but even making tea for you!
This is a great way for parents and children to experience the tea ceremony together, or for a girls' night out. You will feel the spirit of hospitality and feminine manners from the geisha.
After the experience, you can shop for tea utensils with advice from the staff, so you can make tea at home.
If you want to experience a tea ceremony, learn the Japanese culture again, or interact with geisha, don't miss this tour!
