Crafting a Miniature Garden - My fiance and I had such a wonderful experience crafting our heart-shaped miniature gardens! The head instructor and translator were incredibly helpful and friendly. They were also helpful in helping me expand my Japanese vocabulary and speaking ability!

A fantastic chance to sit down and relax in the hub of Shinjuku - We booked our experience through Get Your Guide a d could not resist the parfait addition on top of the flower arrangement! A massive plus was we found the location SO easily! We were a little early when we arrived, but Hinata-san was very accommodating, explanations were given to us in English and we were on our way! There was a great choice of flowers for arrangement as well as a large amount of visual references, Hinata-san helped give suggestions for what we might want to make. On top of the flower arrangement a drink was also provided as a part of the service, the bonus matcha parfait ordered was exquisite! The venue itself surprisingly played R&B (Which I don't hear much in Japan) and was lovely and relaxed, with low lighting. Would 100% recommend if you need to take a load off of your feet and want to make something unique for your trip, and the company from Hinata-san was very enjoyable, a range of activities were on offer too, not just flower arrangement!

Afternoon well spent on mindful activity - It was a good experience. Nice cafe with good music. The guide was friendly and the artist quite hands off. It’s more a self paced workshop rather than a guided one
