One of the highlights from our trip was our sumo experience - Our guide did an amazing job and was very informative. The experience was great. Having the tour before the event really made a difference in understanding the history of sumo and the basic rules of the matches so we were able to enjoy the experience. The only thing that would have made it even better would be the email instructions could have been a little more detailed and thorough as to where we were supposed to meet. That waa confusing and we had to use Google translate to ask a lot of people around if they knew where we were supposed to go. Besides that, our guide in particular did an amazing job and I recommend the experience.

First Timer at a Sumo event. Definitely want to go again and learn more about it! - Oh man. Max was awesome. He took us to different points around the arena explaining the history of sumo, the workouts, the culture. Great knowledge to answer questions everyone may have. And he made sure we all knew exactly where to go to find our seats flawlessly.

Shogun is the king of sumo - Shogun was an excellent guide and an interesting person. We were fortunate to have him sit next to us inside the stadium. He shared some tasty snacks and gossip about his favorite wrestlers. So nice to have a guide who is also a fan

Grand Sumo Tournament! - We started by meeting Masao where he walked us around various parts of the town. He explained the history of sumo and how matches are conducted. Afterwards, he gave us our tickets and we were off to the arena. My family and I had a lot of fun watching the tournament! Was a once in a lifetime experience.

Incredible Sumo tourney experience!! - Nina was exceptional! She gave us a thorough presentation of the history and everything relating to the rules of the sport and relationship to the Shinto religion and customs. She also highlighted the wrestlers who were competing and their standings and who to look for in this tournament. She also took us to some great souvenir shops!

A fun, informative experience! - Highly recommend this tour! Our tour began with a small introduction of Sumo history and notable landmarks. We learnt a lot from Sho, Kentake & Kuwa. It was very interesting, insightful and we recommend everyone stay for this part before heading to the Sumo match. The Sumo match itself was such a unique experience to see in real life. The seats we got were also great, as we had a clear view of the match.
