Kyoto Samurai Armor Experience: Matcha, Calligraphy, Photoshoot

Must do Samurai Experience

This experience is unlike anything I have seen! You get to put on REAL Samurai armor, learn about some of the history, go through a whole incredible experience (I won't spoil it), learn calligraphy, have a tea ceremony, and go outside and have a Samurai walk. This is definitely the coolest thing I have done in Kyoto and think EVERYONE interested in Samurai should definitely partake in this awesome experience. As a 23 year old male, it was so cool.

Kyoto Ramen and Gyoza Cooking Class with Professional Chefs

Interesting guide and great food.

We were four people in the workshop, we started making the dough for the Oudo, and then we went to filling the gooseberries and then making them. The chef who didn't speak English and the guide who spoke English were very kind. The atmosphere was good. The place is a small restaurant. We finished with a very good meal. It was very good and delicious!
