★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 744 reviews · from $21Our pick

Learn to whisk matcha in Asakusa, pair it with seasonal Japanese sweets, and take home simple tea-making skills in a one-hour class.

“This matcha tea workshop was such a lovely and memorable experience. The host was absolutely wonderful—so welcoming and kind. We arrived much earlier than expected, and she graciously let us sit in her cozy café while we waited, which was such a kind gesture. The workshop itself took place in a charming upstairs nook of the café, where we sat on the floor in traditional style. It added to the authenticity and intimacy of the experience. The space was peaceful and perfect for learning the art of matcha. Our host wasn’t just a great teacher—she’s also incredibly cultured and insightful, with some amazing life experiences that she shared with us.…”

Make mochi and dango by hand in Sakura’s Tokyo home near Shibuya, then enjoy your sweets with matcha and learn their cultural meaning.

“I recently participated in a mochi-making cooking class with some of my colleagues from overseas, Singapore, Korea, and Australia. Our instructor, Sakura, spoke English and explained in what occasions Japanese people eat mochi and how it's deeply connected with the Japanese culture. It was very informative and a new experience for me, even though I was born and raised in Japan! It was great that the Daifuku and Dango we made used ingredients that are readily available abroad, so everyone can recreate them when they go back home. My colleagues all had a wonderful time with the new discoveries and experiences. It was a great team building opportunity for everyone!”

Make two seasonal Kyoto-style nerikiri sweets in Tokyo for $11, then eat your handmade works in this fun 65-minute Japanese culture class.

“I am very sorry to have to leave a negative review, but I hope the arranger will take this feedback and improve the class. First off, the welcome was quite cold, and the class is VERY rushed. The teacher will stress through the sentences, and each stage of the sweet making. She gives you barely 30-40 seconds to finish each task before pushing on to the next one. At the end she also pushes you to eat quickly and leave. The explanations are also very rushed *in Japanese and English and quite frankly, its a big classroom that can house maybe 30 students, and if you are at the back…”
