    Awesome once in a lifetime opportunity to see this tournament. The guide was very helpful and explained what was happening and any questions we had

    We watched 32 matches in three hours. They were all so interesting. The history of Sumo in the entrance museum was very helpful to understanding this unique sporting event in Japan. Our tour guide was a lifelong Sumo wrestling expert and added a lot to the whole tour. Highly recommended.

    This was the perfect way to see a game and understand the basics. Plus taking all the guess work out of the experience was well worth the price. Basically show up on time and they take care to of everything else!

    It was an amazing experience! Highly recommended!
    It was our first time watching a sumo tournament. We learned a lot from our tour guide Toshio on the background, history, and culture of the national sport

    The guide was a real expert, a former TV sumo reporter and knew a lot of people at the venue. His insights and occasional commentary were interesting. It was really exciting to see sumo live and be part of that unusual spectacle. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

    We had a lot of fun during our tour! I was sad that my wife wasn’t able to attend because it took so long to get finalized details from the tour company, but that aside our guide was great and my work friend and I enjoyed ourselves.

    Seating was in an excellent location for viewing the sumo. The chanko nabe was equally excellent and delicious.

    Our guide Taku enriched the experience with his insights into the history and rituals behind Sumo wrestling.

    I totally enjoyed this activity. We did skip some of it, mainly because of the heat and the lack of interest in some of the tour, but with the idea of seeing as many matches as possible. Except for the audience, the whole thing was great. I don’t know why some of those people came, because instead of watching the matches, they spent their entire time running up and down the stairs to the snack bar. Our seats were pretty good, seeing as they were on the aisle and so the only time the view was blocked was when someone was coming up or down to/from the snack bar.

    Fantastic experience. Our guide Toshi meet us at the station. We walked to the Sumo stadium which was approximately at 5 min walk.
    Toshi explained the history of Sumo, we had a quick visit to the Sumo museum and then a tour of the stadium. We had some free time to buy sumo souvenirs.
    The Sumo competition was amazing we had a really fantastic afternoon. So much history and culture. The Japanese people love Sumo it’s a family affair, for young and old. We all had ear pieces so Toshi could explain everything that was going on. We are now all sumo experts!
    I highly recommend seeing the Sumo competition and I highly recommend Toshi as a guide!

    Our guide, Miyako Hirano was excellent. Her passion for the event was evident and she made the experience even better than our already high expectations allowed. Would highly recommend to anyone fortunate enough to be able to co-ordinate this event into their travels to awesome Japan. Everything was seamless from the meeting to the dinner at the completion

  14. Clair_O

    Guided sumo experience was a must. So fantastic to understand the history and see the bouts through the eyes of a real fan! I’m

    A guide gave us good information about the history and traditions of sumo. She explained the rules during the fights and the traditional dinner was nice. A good idea as the wrestling finishes late afternoon and saves you time finding somewhere to eat

    We booked this experience even before the actual trip to Japan as they only happen 3 times a year in Tokyo and did we make a great decision. There is nothing more Japanese than Sumo and Miyako our guide was so passionate and knowledgable about the sport it was memorable for us all. We were taken for a very enjoyable meal after the days competition which finished off our time in Japan perfectly. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone.

  17. Joanne_P

    So amazing to enjoy the national sport of Japan with the fans. Loved the entire experience, and the completeness of the tour as well. Miyako was great. Only thing was the sound gear wasn’t working and this would have added good value to the entire tour.
    Highly recommend, and would do again.

  18. KYLE_S

    A true one in a lifetime experience! The guide provided a great tour of the museum/stadium and provided very helpful background and explanations throughout each match, which made the tournament 100 times more meaningful and memorable. Highly recommend!

    Our guide brought Sumo to life. He even indicated that one of the contestants was a close family friend and had all of us cheering for him. Dinner after the match was excellent
