Miku was excellent, the tour unmissable! - An EXCELLENT experience and well worth the money! I learnt so much, it is very interactive and you can handle and wear some of the exhibits which I didn’t expect. Our guide, Miku, had excellent English and was very friendly and knowledgeable. She made the experience professional but fun and inclusive. The shuriken throwing lesson and competition was a brilliant ending to the tour. (Thank you for my star!) If you are in Kyoto, do not miss this museum!!!

Museum is great, Ninja experience disappointing - The welcome was very chaotic and not organised. Our guide for the ninja experience seemed very distracted and his story was chaotic. We were allowed to throw stars and blow darts, but it was very disappointing. The tour in the museum was very nice and you are able to throw stars here as well. The dress up as a Samurai was very disappointing. The only stars we give are for the tour guide in the museum, she was great! The complete experience is not worth your money, just visit the museum.
