About this tour
Dress in one of over 100 traditional kimonos and explore Nagasaki's historic Dejima district as it was during the Edo period. A professional dresser outfits you in roughly 20 minutes, complete with a simple hairstyle, then you're free to wander the atmospheric streets for the remainder of your two-hour window. The experience works rain or shine—indoor photo spots in the Chief Factor's Residence keep you covered on poor-weather days.

What to expect
Arrive at Dejima Hoppen Shop and work with staff to pick a kimono that suits you. A trained dresser will handle the layering and fastening—this takes about 20 minutes per person, so budget time if you're in a group. Once dressed, you'll receive basic styling for your hair. You're then free to explore Dejima's preserved lanes and architecture, stepping back into 18th-century Japan. If weather turns foul, head to the adjacent Chief Factor's Residence, a Japanese-style building perfect for photographs. Just make sure you return to the shop by 5 PM.
