About this experience
Japanese kimonos are mainly small sizes to fit our physiques. But we have plus-size Kimonos you can enjoy! If you are traveling alone and want to take pictures, you have to ask someone or use a tripod. However, Asakusa town is very crowded and it is difficult to use a tripod. There are also cases where you want to take photos with two people as a couple. We will take as many pictures as you like within the time limit. The guide knows lots of secret photo spots. ★Notes★ Please read carefully the notes in What To Expect. More than that size, may be canceled.

Unnecessary Booking
Do not waste your money booking a rental through them. There are multiple shops that offer plus size kimonos - just a google away. What a waste of time and money. Very dishonest about what’s included and offered as a part of the package.

Five stars
This is definitely a great way to rent a kimono as a plus size woman. Alisa was great and taking my photos. She was very sweet and made the experience worthwhile
Response from the operator: Thank you for your review. I'm glad you chose my tour for your first kimono experience. You were so beautiful. Please take lots of photos as memories :D NicoTour Japan / Alisa

Plus size kimono with Alisa ! Celebrating Honeymoon
The most memorable part of this day was being able to wear a kimono and a yukata for my husband. When coming to Japan especially the first time, you must experience this kimono wear! Walking around Asakusa, touring around Sensoji Temple and embracing Japan's history will truly leave a mark memory on you! Alisa was super helpful, very kind and patience along with the staff who helped us put on the kimono and yukata. Everyone was super helpful and we felt so comfortable. Alisa will tour with you and share get areas to take photos of you and they turned out really good! Despite it was rainy and windy on the day, we managed to continue to take fantastic photos, tour around the temple and enjoying the local area. Please ensure what ever weather you will be attending be sure you are weather prepared! It rained on and off that day but it was okay. Plus size woman! Please know I booked this experience 2-3 weeks prior to our trip. If you are a 3XL (CAD or USD) please be sure you check your measurements accordingly! I got myself measured at a tailor prior everything. Alisa did her research and contacted another kimono place that had my size (it was between purple or pink = both colors were amazing) and pink. It was a special day alone because we were celebrating our Honeymoon pictures and both my husband and I loved it! Only thing was, I must let people who are on the bigger size, it may be a little tight in some areas (for me under the breast/stomach area) and for my husband under his waist was a little tight but if you can endure it for 3 hours (like us) you will be okay! Also take great care of these kimono, avoid staining and damaging any of these kimono's and yukata because you will get charged. I was so worried because of the rain but it was okay! It kept us warm and at times kind of sweaty! So plan accordingly when experiencing kimono wearing! You won't regret it :) LASTLY, you have to ask Alisa the popular pineapple bun~! Such a nice treat especially when it's freshly baked!
Response from the operator: Thank you for posting your review. It seems like it was a memorable experience, and I'm very happy. I was worried because of the heavy rain that day, but I was relieved that I was able to take some good photos.! Please come to Japan again and experience it :-) NicoTour Japan / Alisa

Why this scores 54
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Plus size Kimono rental and photo shoot in Asakusa: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tokyo.
How much does Plus size Kimono rental and photo shoot in Asakusa cost?
+
Prices start at $11900 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tokyo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Plus size Kimono rental and photo shoot in Asakusa take?
+
Plan for about 2.7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tokyo is not rushed.
Is Plus size Kimono rental and photo shoot in Asakusa worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 14 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tokyo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Plus size Kimono rental and photo shoot in Asakusa?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Plus size Kimono rental and photo shoot in Asakusa suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Plus size Kimono rental and photo shoot in Asakusa?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tokyo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tokyo and add a light layer if any part of the 2.7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Plus size Kimono rental and photo shoot in Asakusa start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tokyo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tokyo?
+
Tokyo is less a city than a stack of neighborhoods with completely different opening hours. A guided food crawl through Shinjuku's Omoide Yokocho gets you past the no-tourist curtains, while the day trips west to Hakone and Fuji need an early start to be worth the fare. Our ranking weighs guide quality heavily here, because in Tokyo the guide is the product. On Outty we rank every Tokyo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Tokyo Shinjuku Chopsticks Making Class, Tokyo : Asakusa Chopsticks Making Class, Shinjuku Night Food and Bar Crawl. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tokyo?
+
Late March to May for blossom, October to November for clear Fuji views. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tokyo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
