Favorite part of my trip! - Amazing experience. Our Sensei and his assistant made this such a fun and informative experience for my wife and I. I even got to talk samurai history with the instructor (Oda and Tokugawa Clan). Honestly the best part of my Tokyo trip.

Fun and Memorable Samurai Experience - We had a great time at this samurai experience. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, and they made the whole session enjoyable from start to finish. We got to dress up in traditional wear, which added a fun and immersive touch. They taught us some basic samurai moves and techniques, and we even got to act out a short fight scene at the end. It was a nice mix of learning, trying something new, and just having fun together as a group. Definitely recommend this if you’re looking for a unique and hands-on cultural experience. Takes a little bit to find the location, but Google maps worked fine. Look for the blue flag.

Great Group Activity! - We had such a fun time, my son couldn't stop laughing at our two guides and their enthusiasm for dramatic theatrical flair. Both samurai instructors were wonderful and were so helpful while teaching us the different forms and patient while going through our routines. Highly recommend this experience!

Fun interactive Samurai costume and fight experience. - A fun and engaging interactive session with wonderful costumes and some basic samurai moves, culminating in a simulated fight sequence we could video. The costumes are authentic in style, and the demonstrated combat moves also seemed genuine. Lots of laughter and banter. A little more on the history and culture of Samurai would have added to the experience.
