Reviews
As a travel agency owner in Tokyo specializing in inbound tourism, I am always seeking authentic and memorable experiences. Among these, the FUJI SUMO Show & Experience is one cultural activity I can confidently recommend. This program, known as "Sumo Experience Japan," is truly excellent. It combines powerful live performances with clear explanations and interactive elements, allowing international travelers to thoroughly enjoy and understand traditional Japanese culture. It also holds significant value as a "Japanese Cultural Experience Fuji" in the Mount Fuji area, making it particularly recommended for those seeking hands-on Japanese activities. From a practical standpoint, it's highly compatible with group tours, especially during peak seasons like cherry blossom viewing, providing a reliable option for large groups. Furthermore, it's frequently recommended by nearby hotels, which speaks volumes about its trustworthiness and high reputation. What personally impressed me was their ability to flexibly accommodate even my most challenging requests. Their readiness to handle last-minute adjustments and detailed requests made me feel confident in recommending it to my clients. From a travel agency perspective, their English support and well-established operational system are major strengths, allowing us to confidently propose this experience to travelers of any nationality. It's a highly appealing program for tourists looking for a quintessential Japanese experience.
We absolutely enjoyed the sumo show! The people were so welcoming, kind, and entertaining. The hosts were funny, interactive, and made the whole experience memorable. One of the best parts was being invited on stage to fight with the wrestlers ourselves, such a fun experience! Our booking was originally for the 4 PM show, but since we arrived early, they kindly arranged another show for us at 2 PM upon request. We really appreciated their hospitality and flexibility. location:Backdrop of the show is mt fuji, unfortunatly the day we went it was not visible. Still the entire Yamanaka lake surrounding is so pretyy with greenary. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Japan!
This was such a cool experience! I definitely recommend for a beginner experience of summo with a view of Mt Fuji! Best to go when the weather is nice and not too hot to get a good view and not be too warm but they had coverings/indoor accommodations so you can also do with not so good weather. I will say I believe the address takes you down the street from the location so I would suggest putting a photo up of what the outside of the building should look like. Other than that all the staff was amazing and were more than happy to take pictures and videos for you! We were able to take photos with the summo wrestlers and even volunteer to wrestle them! I definitely recommend! 10 out if 10! 🤼🗻
What a beautiful show. The staff was so friendly and helpful, they took photos and videos of us. Our two children got a bag of snacks upon arrival. We loved the traditional music at the beginning and the explanation of the sumo moves. We highly recommend this experience.
Very good experience with Fuji Sumo. It’s was great to know more about it, its new for me ! I fully recommended! Everybody is so nice and welcoming! I had a blast !
With the beautiful Mount Fuji in the background, a sumo ring was set up, and a sumo show began with the sounds of shakuhachi and shamisen music. The powerful bouts by the sumo wrestlers were truly impressive. We also had the chance to experience the salt-throwing and shiko (leg stomping) with everyone, and learning about the sumo rituals was very educational. Additionally, we had a fun time taking commemorative photos together. If I have another opportunity, I would love to go again with my friends and grandchildren.
Best Show in Fuji! This was very interactive. My kids were nervous when they walked in, but the performers quickly made them feel more comfortable! The staff are friendly and so accommodating. We will be doing this again if we come back!
it was a really good interactive show. thankyou to the hosts!
The view was very nice and you could see Mount Fuji while the show was on. Before the fight you will also get to listen to traditional music.
It’s a great activity for family!
