Great experience at the Sumo in Tokyo - The sumo experience was very good - better than we expected. It is very beneficial to have a guide to explain the history of Sumo, what’s happening in each match and all the intricacies and traditions

Super Sumo! - What a fantastic experience if you're into sports or Japanese culture. Sumo goes much deeper than what is commonly known and the Grand Tournaments are a must see if the timing works for your trip. Our guide Yuki was very informative about the history but also seems to be a fan herself, which makes the experience even more enjoyable!

Great time! - Yoki was a wonderful guide. For those of us who didn’t know anything about sumo she explained its history and how the tournament worked. She stayed with us the entire time answering all of our questions and I couldn’t have asked a better guide. She was so enthusiastic about sumo that it excited the rest of us about the sport. I would definitely recommend asking for Yoki as your guideif you get the how your

Sumo wrestling - The whole experience was amazing and I’m now a fan of sumo wrestling! Our guide, Yuki Hatagawa was very knowledgeable and I could feel her passion for the sport shine through. Yuki had an informative answer for every question I asked and shared so many tidbits of the culture and tradition behind sumo wrestling. I would love to return to Japan again to watch another match. Thank you to Yuki for such a great experience!
