Highlights
Step into the world of Nohgaku, Japan’s 650-year-old classical performing art and a UNESCO-recognized cultural treasure. This immersive program takes place in a privately rented, authentic cypress-wood Noh theater in Shibuya. Begin by watching a graceful shimai dance, then learn the history, meaning, and aesthetics of Noh through explanations and close-up viewing of real masks and costumes. Practice basic postures and movements with professional performers, walk the sacred hashigakari bridgeway, and explore the usually inaccessible Kagami-no-Ma backstage room. You’ll also enjoy a Noh mask wearing experience and photo opportunity, offering a rare chance to step into the role of a performer. The tour concludes with a second dance, allowing you to appreciate the art on a deeper level.

About Tokyo
Neon-lit districts, quiet shrines, superb food and distinct neighbourhoods make up Tokyo, a vast, orderly metropolis linked by punctual trains.
Every district feels like its own city. Shibuya's famous scramble crossing and Shinjuku's towers, bars and Golden Gai alleys pulse with energy, while Harajuku mixes youth fashion with the forested calm of the Meiji Jingu shrine. In Asakusa, the Sensō-ji temple and its market street keep an older Tokyo alive, and Ginza offers polished department stores and galleries.
Top-ranked sights in Tokyo: Senso-ji Temple (Asakusa Temple), Tokyo Imperial Palace, Meiji Shrine (Meiji Jingu).
