When visiting Kyoto, renting a kimono and walking around the city is a great experience. However, you need to be careful when choosing a cheap kimono store.
Let’s examine what to keep in mind when choosing a cheap kimono store based on actual failure cases.
Low price but low quality
A tourist chose a cheap kimono store.
The price was much cheaper than other stores, and I was happy to rent a kimono. However, the material of the kimono was poor quality, making it uncomfortable to wear, and the techniques used to put it on were inadequate. As a result, it was difficult to walk around in the kimono, and I couldn’t even enjoy walking around.
Verification and precautions: Pay attention not only to the price, but also to the quality of the kimono and the service provided. It’s not just about being cheap, it’s about the balance of quality and service. Check the reviews and reputation and choose a store you can trust.
Additional fees are high and exceed budget
Another tourist chose a cheap kimono store. The price was reasonable and I was able to rent a kimono within my budget.
However, the optional services offered at the store were expensive, and I had to pay additional fees. As a result, we ended up exceeding our original budget and ended up spending more money during the trip than we expected.
Verification and precautions: Thoroughly research the plan contents and additional charges in advance. Make sure that not only the low price, but also the price of optional services and additional charges are within your budget. Gather sufficient information in advance to prepare for unexpected additional charges.
summary
When choosing a cheap kimono store, you need to pay attention not only to the price, but also to the quality and additional charges. Let’s look back on what we’ve learned from failures and check what to keep in mind when choosing a cheap kimono store.
By choosing a reliable store, you can have the wonderful experience of enjoying the streets of Kyoto in a beautiful kimono.
