Well worth adding to your Tokyo itinerary - This is a wonderful experience in a tea room which is part of the Mita Kobo-ji temple. Tae san is a master of her craft and her explanations and instruction are excellent. I went with my wife and two children (early 20's) and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. The ceremony is beautiful and very relaxing. Easy to get there by train and a short walk. I would recommend this as an authentic experience that you should definitely add to your Tokyo itinerary.

10/10 tea ceremony experience - This experience was a dream come true, we enjoyed all the sweet treats and the matcha tea making and tasting. We were well looked after and our translator was brilliant linking our conversations to our host and herself making our visit very enjoyable. The ceremony was insightful, educational, fun, respectful and for me a dream come true experience. We also gotten chance to experience a room in the temple creating a moment to become one with our surroundings including being invited to burn a stick of incense before we complete our own prayers or wishes to the gods. We were given a leaflet and step by step guide so that we could learn and take our experience back home with us. I highly recommend for anyone wanting to experience a tea ceremony but also for anyone looking for a moment of peace and joy. Thank you to our hosts for making our time with them so special.
