Begin your adventure in style

After arrival, friendly staff assist as you select the kimono, yukata or obi that fits your personality.

Capture timeless photographs in scenic streets surrounded by traditional wooden townhouses or gardens. You can also opt for a professional photo session to preserve your experience.

The experience accommodates men, women and children. There are options for every season and taste, including summer yukata rentals and formal silk choices. Your personal items and clothing can be securely stored during your outing and you’ll be provided with an elegant bag to carry your essentials. Should you select the hair and makeup package, plan for additional time during your fitting.

Plan your visit

The complete kimono rental, fitting and preparation process generally takes between 1 and 1.5 hours. Allow for extra time if you opt for hair and makeup styling.
