Just finished a kimono session at Kyoto, and the experience was absolutely fantastic! A special shout-out to Carmen, the staff member; she was incredibly thoughtful and patient. She meticulously helped us choose the perfect kimonos and headwear based on our body types and personalities – her eye for style is amazing! We were also extremely satisfied with the makeup and hairstylist's work!
Our photographer was also incredibly dedicated! He thoughtfully found hidden gems for us along the way, avoiding the crowds at tourist attractions. We were extremely happy with the final photos; the composition and candid shots were superb! The entire experience was so pleasant and comfortable – definitely worth every penny!
I went last time in July, and this time in October I went again to see the chef's seasonal dishes. It was another delightful meal. The dishes were delicious and full of tenderness, care, and human touch.
The itinerary was very fulfilling. Our guide, Liu, not only provided detailed introductions to the attractions but also shared local delicacies. The time was too short; I'd love to come back for an even more in-depth experience next time.
The kimono shop receptionist was very thoughtful; she contacted the photographer in advance. The photographer was also very good at guiding poses and even brought his own props. He included 12 edited photos, and the whole thing was done in one evening—it looks amazing!
There are Chinese audio guides available, so even those who don't speak Japanese can easily participate. You can enjoy the atmosphere of high-end Japanese cuisine and watch maiko performances. The garden has a great ambiance and beautiful night views.
