    This was a highlight of our two weeks in Japan! Very knowledgeable and inspired me to creat my own matcha and ritual. The matcha was delicious and she spoke very good English and was so patient with us. I would highly recommend. Also a great location; you can walk to Nijo castle afterwards.

    This was an incredible experience to get to share and learn about the art of tea and participate in a tea ceremony (including making tea ourselves) from a Tea Master herself.

    This was a great experience - definitely one of the highlights of our 10 day trip to Japan. Well worth it if you are in Kyoto. Not only was it a fun time but she took many great pictures for us to remember the occasion.

    We had a phenomenal experience at the tea ceremony! Aya and her husband were so kind and accommodated us even though we were a bit late. The experience was informative and we learned a ton. Highly recommended!
