Excellent communication even through I got sick and couldn’t attend - I was looking forward to this visit however fell sick a couple of days prior. I engaged with the provider and they were extremely accommodating in refunding the payment. The communication for booking, how to travel and inclusions was very clear and simple. I hope to get the chance to do this next time I’m in town.

Do it! - Excellent experience in every way. Pickup at the train station was easy. The teachers were extremely knowledge. It was a memorable way to spend a few hours in Tokyo. It’s a short walk to shrines/food stalls so you can really make a day of it

This hidden experience should be a part of your trip - This is such an amazing experience that was shared with us. At first, we were a little intimidated with how everything would happen. But Sensei was very excellent at explaining how the processes goes as well as building on the each skill. There are plenty of video and photo opportunities during your session. I would highly recommend this tour for all.

A very worthwhile experience - I made a reservation alone on fairly short notice, and the SAMURAI TRIP team were very accommodating and able to fit me into their schedule anyway. The kendo class itself was very interesting and entertaining. I do wish it was only a little longer! But regardless, a very positive experience all around.
