Great experience. All staff and instructors were highly trained and I am impressed with the professionalism and friendliness of everyone. I was able to attend a samurai sword class and received a mini lesson. The museum was so informative and houses a large number of swords to admire and learn from it's history.
Looking at the videos and observing the skilled sword forgers produce these incredibly beautiful swords contributed to having a most fulfilling experience while in Japan.

Fantastic day of Japanese metallurgy and sword skills
We spent a fantastic day with Hiroyasu exploring Seki including the Museum, an introduction to Iaido and a wonderful lunch at a local Tempura restaurant. As well as being a knowledgable guide both with ancient and modern local history, Hiroyasu also had a great sense of humour and a luxurious vehicle transporting us from site to site. I’m planning to return to Seki and Gifu with my son and will be absolutely taking advantage of Hiroyasu’s tour services!
