Very fun and cultural activity!! - The experience started with information about indigo and samurai blue. We have a very fun time doing our own dyeing and also we laughed a lot during the experience. I think you need to try it at least once, and if you have a longer time, you might be able to ask for a private lesson too! I am sure it is possible. The atmosphere is chill and if you go during off peak time, the crowd size is manageable. Highly recommended for solo traveller, group or family, and even couple!

Cats and Tye Dye! - K and the whole team was amazing. The process was easy to understand and do. A wonderful souvenir for the area. If you have any allergies to cats or animals, it is a cat rescue so it is not a good idea for you Would recommend if you are looking for something different and unique.

Great time dyeing scrolls - Mina was an excellent guide and translator and our teachers helped the perfect amount, letting us create our own scroll while also making sure we did not mess up. The experience was interesting and a great time, especially for the inexpensive price. There were no others in our group which was nice. Also, the cat cafe was a great atmosphere. The cats knew their stuff too.
