A great experience

This experience was very nice. The young lady knew a little bit of English but we were able to communicate with her. She was very polite and patiently wrapped us in our kimonos and took lots of pictures.

Response from the operator: Thank you very much. I’m glad you enjoyed it. Please come visit Japan again!

Worth it

Loved it. The girls were very nice and helpful. We never take pictures of ourselves, so this was nice and they came out beautiful. Definitely recommend to family and friends.

Response from the operator: Thank you for visiting us! Your poses were amazing. You looked great in the photos! We had a great time too. We look forward to seeing you again!

Wonderful combo - I...

Wonderful combo - I dressed as an Orian, my husband with this reservation, was a Samuri & we took pictures inside & outside. Thanks so much for all you did:) Then later we got to see our hosts in their outside performance. Excellent.

Lovely experience

A lovely experience. Well organised and lots of choices. Well worth doing for friends, mother daughter or self indulgence.

Response from the operator: Thank you for visiting us! The pink kimono you chose looked great on you and was beautiful. Enjoy your cruise. We look forward to seeing you again.

My travel to Tokyo was...

My travel to Tokyo was quite short and so when I booked this experience, I just wanted to get pictures in a Kimono with my spouse. We booked our slot for 10 am, it's the first slot of the day. The photographer got there about 9:50 am. (Image for the building is in this post, just in case you were wondering if you're at the right spot!) We also missed this in the Viator app but the suite is 803, there's an elevator that takes you up the the 8th floor. After selecting, the kimono colors, the photographer dressed us up and helped put my hair into a braided bun, which took about 30 minutes. The photo sessions was about 10 minutes each person solo and 10 minutes together as a couple. I have not uploaded the images from the SD card given but I have included a selfie picture so you can see what the kimonos look like. While the photographer was taking pictures, I was able to see what the images looked like and I loved it. The company that runs this photography studio is a dance company, they perform every Saturday evening in Asakusa. Please confirm with them the time. We actually ran into the photographer and her dance crew while walking around. The photographer, Aya, was nice and helpful. We had a wonderful experience and would recommend people to add this onto your list of things to do in Tokyo. Whether you are short on time or if you'd like to have studio photos taken, it's definitely worth it.

Response from the operator: Thank you for visiting us! I had a great time talking to you two. And I was surprised to meet you on the street during the show! It was so much fun meeting you and taking a selfie. Did you enjoy the sumo? Please come visit us again when you come to Japan.

Studio Kimono Photo: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tokyo.

How much does Studio Kimono Photo cost?

+

Prices start at $10000 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 Studio Kimono Photo take?

+

Plan for about 0.3 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 Studio Kimono Photo worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 30 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Tokyo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Studio Kimono Photo?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 144 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is Studio Kimono Photo suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 5. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 0.3-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Studio Kimono Photo?

+

Around 11 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 0.3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Studio Kimono Photo 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.
