We found Kanji house with my wife because we were looking for a hanging scroll to adorn our house and to keep memories of our trip to Japan! We spoke to Rina who was incredibly friendly and helpful in fulfilling our requests and she set an appointment for us within one hour from my mail! Upon arrival we’ve been welcomed in a very nice and cozy environment and welcomed by Rina and her friend calligrapher (can’t remember his name!) who were very friendly throughout the whole process! Instead of our names, we wanted to write few words that would symbolize the marriage and family and Rina was very helpful in finding a good and esthetically pleasing solution for us! They have been so nice to let us also take picture and video of the whole process which is quite pleasing to watch in real life! If you like calligraphy you would certainly appreciate the skill of Rina associate! All in all, a great experience, one of those unique and remarkable things that let you enjoy the true essence of Japan culture! Truly highly recommended!!!

One of the artists abroad in the US held a one-day event at a festival in DC, and I decided to get one done. I came a bit late after the event, but I was happy that she was willing to write one for me. I have a Chinese name already and it's a bit boring to write, so after some thinking, I asked her to write an idiom in Japanese for me. It turned out great! I will hang it on my wall once I do some cleaning. She was very nice too. Would highly recommend. It makes a great gift, souvenir, or art piece. It also makes me really want to learn how to write calligraphy myself (I'm sure it's not easy though!)

Minami was prompt and accommodating in her reply (with arranging my reservation). Was not aware that the weekend was their off-day but she waited and attended to my appointment. I informed her of the Kanji characters that I wanted and the calligrapher’s style. She was kind enough to make the arrangement. Am happy with the piece and it’s hanging proudly with my other art collections. (Requested for 2 calligraphy pieces to be made.) Minami was also kind enough to briefly show me around Asakusa Temple before her next appointment. A must visit and do support them, if you are interested to bring something unique back from Japan, this is it.

Our Rickshaw guide for the morning was Kazuki. This was our first ever visit to Japan and he made us both feel very welcome. He was very informative and it was a pleasure spending time with him. His knowledge of Japanese culture and the area we travelled was fantastic, we also had a good laugh during our trip, which was an added bonus. Big thanks to Kazuki for making this trip even more special. Would recommend this trip for anyone travelling to Tokyo. Many thanks Claire and Adrian, England.

We were on the last day of our fantastic trip to Japan. it was a nice experience. We recommend it to everyone. It helps you to better understand this magnificent country.

I was extremely impressed by Milo and Minami! They were kind and friendly and responded to my email promptly, making it possible for me to do this experience before I left Japan. In a city that is large and exciting, the term 'house' is highly appropriate. As this experience not only provided a wonderful cultural lesson, it was also inviting, warm and Comfortable. I felt at home speaking with them and discussing character, culture and learning about their language system. Milo is a wonderful artist and be sure to understand that what hey do is exactly that : an art. Both Minami and Milo are wonderful conversationalists. This was definitely a highlight from my trip.

I visited with my 2 nephews (11 and 16) and their grandmother (Spanish-speaker). They enjoyed the experience very much. They enjoyed hearing what their name meant and what the thought process was. An extra bonus was that the teacher spoke some Spanish, which was much appreciated! He even emailed us a Spanish version of the character meanings when we returned home! Great experience and nice souvenir!

I booked this for my 9 year old and myself to have a cultural Japanese experience. While it was very educational and interesting to me as an adult, I can in no way recommend this to families with kids under age 12. My 9 year old was bored senseless by the teacher, a young man in early 20s, discussing multiple meanings of Japanese letters. The discussion of linguistics went way over her head and the teacher did little to engage her. It is a very small room with little to do except sit and listen which is hard for most children. A previous reviewer said they had a 6 and 8 year old?

I stopped by during the posted hours on trip advisor (1pm on a Saturday) but they were closed, and didn't see any English sign with opening hours posted. I guess you can only book via email, in advance.

The place is nice,, a lot of small shops for snacks and buying souvenirs,, a lot of people is visiting the temple,, try wearing the Japanese custom while visiting and don't miss Japanese sweets..

The organisation was great. People were great at the kimono house and the guide was ABSOLUTELY great. Going around Asakusa at new year period is a must do, with a lot to see and to taste. One of the highlight of my trip to Tokyo.

We enjoyed our time here. We took the calligraphy, tour and Kimono dress up (for the wife). The definite highlight was the Kimono dress up, and Rivka could also wear it during the tour itself which was a massive bonus. Calligraphy was also nice. Tour was ok, although we were a little unlucky with the weather. It was also easy to whatsapp before we came to confirm our exact time which was appreciated.

Very pleasant experience in Tokyo. I was taken in a samurai style costume around Asakusa and it was great especially for pictures. It gets crowded in the afternoon so better to start late when it quiets down a bit for better shots. The Calligraphy souvenir is beautiful and it is unique to its owner. Overall, it's good value for money for a meaningful glimpse of the Japanese culture.

Norie, my tour guide has a pretty extensive knowledge of Asakusa and its history. She answered all of my questions and took the time to explain them in great details. My phone stopped working, the night before I was about to leave for Tokyo. I had to asked Norie, if we can use her phone to take pictures. She gladly took the photos and emailed them to me. Great Service!

We went there with my children 11 and 15 and had a very nice time experiencing explanations about Kanji writing.
