Highlights

Our tea ceremony session is held in an authentic Japanese style room at a local house. Tea ceremony is formal, but you will also experience the feeling of being invited over for a cup of tea by a friend in Japan. This is a great opportunity for all tourists coming to Kyoto.


Our group lessons have a maximum of 8 people. Our hosts and English-speaking instructors are all very friendly and want you to have a memorable time with us.
We'll introduce you some history of tea and tea ceremony.
You will have a chance to make a bowl of Match by yourself so you will be able to make it for your friends when you go back home. We guarantee they will be surprised and that would be one of the best souvenirs for them!!


  • It is also possible to prepare a chair instead of sitting on the Tatami floor if you prefer. Please let us know how many chairs you want us to prepare when you make a reservation.

*Our reservation is from 2, but if you are solo, please contact us, we may arrange for you.

    When you arrive the house, our English-speaking host will guide you to the kitchen. You will learn how to make one kind of Wagashi (Japanese Sweets) there. It is a hands-on class and not just a demonstration. After the class, it's time to join tea ceremony. First, the host will explain how to attend tea ceremony. Next, we will go outside and walk through a tiny little garden and enter an authentic Japanese style room when it is not raining. After we seated on the tatami floor, the instructor will explain the history of tea ceremony, and also the meaning of the hanging scroll on the wall. Then, you will savor Japanese sweets that you have just made, while your instructor is demonstrating how to drink a bowl of Matcha. Finally, you will meet the host and she will demonstrate the ceremonial preparation of Matcha and you will enjoy drinking it. Afterwards, you will have the opportunity to prepare it for yourself. All of our instructors are licensed guide interpreters, so all the participants will be able to clearly understand all the information covered in the class.
