Treino Matinal de Sumô em Tóquio com um Repórter Especialista

Such an interesting experience and not some kind of fake touristy show. Actually got to see sumo players train and fight against each other in one of the largest stable. Also the guide used to be a sumo newspaper journalist and has a lot of knowledge and passion for sumo, love all the stories he shared about sumo and his experience.

This is definitely my best experience in Japan during 3 weeks. It's worth every penny I spent! All the sumo wrestlers were so captivating with their practice that morning. Setsu is definitely the star of the morning, with all his passion and patience in a happy mood, he guided us from one surprise to another. I highly recommend this tour to all my friends and also to people who are interested in this tour. Just go ahead without hesitation, you're going to understand how I feel right now. Cheers!

One of the best experiences of our life! This REAL true cultural tour will leave you with the knowledge, understanding and appreciation for the Japanese culture. Tour Guides were so kind, knowledgeable and entertaining.

Amazing experience, although not cheap. The training is full of action and you can understand part of it by reading the email they send before. I would always choose the first time block they offer so I could sit right in front and see everything without problem, maybe those who are not so patient would not enjoy it. The Q&A after and the stories are also nice.

This is definitely a bookable experience. The location was easy to find. The tour guides were friendly and provided a lot of information. You can ask any questions and they will answer them. Any seat is a good seat at the stable to watch them practice. It was very exciting to see. There was a lot of action to witness. Afterwards, you also get to take a picture with them. So make sure to tip the Sumo wrestlers well...

Great experience, not cheap but well worth it. JapanShine Tours were great from the outset making contact and giving details of sumo wrestling, what to expect and meeting up instructions. Our guide was clearly very knowledgeable having been a journalist covering the wrestling, he answered loads of questions about the sport and lives of the wrestlers. we met at 7.25, short walk and then spent almost 3 hours watching the sumo warm up, train and wrest and then cool off. Able to take photos & video and photos with the wrestlers. JapanShine tours organised taxi transport to the sumo stadium and exhibition space where our guide explained more about the sport, answered questions and showed us the sumo wrestling ring for a further almost an hour. A great experience & would definitely recommend

It was a very educational and entertaining morning. The sumo athletes provided a powerful display of their art, and the two guides were both clearly passionate and knowledgeable about the entire realm of sumo sport. I would also recommend bringing a cash tip of your choosing, as the sumo wrestlers are very appreciative and are more than happy to pose for a photo at the end of their practice.

I truly enjoyed this experience and would recommend it to all international visitors to Tokyo. The pre-and post-arrangements were very good, and during the tour, we learned so much about sumo practices. Our tour guides were excellent at sharing their knowledge and answering our questions about sumo. One of the two tour guides was a sports journalist who specialised in sumo, hence the solid and professional experience. It is a small tour group, so we were all taken good care of.

With the typhoon in full swing, this meant our tour was only my husband and I as the others where stranded in Osaka. We loved this personal experience. Watching the sumos train was incredible. I would recommend woman to wear pants or a long skirt/dress as you will be sitting on a mat the entire time. After the training session we got a photo with the Sumos and gave them 1000 yen to show our appreciation. Our guide Shinya was very knowledgeable and went above and beyond for us, even offering to drive us to our next tour which was 10 minutes away. We really enjoyed this cultural experience!

Sehr schöne Tour! Der Sumo-Spezialist Shinya war sehr informativ, wirklich lustig und erzählte uns viel über die Welt des Sumo. Er kontaktierte uns auch am Vortag mit allen Details und sprach gut Englisch. Eine nette Dame namens Karen war auch als Teil der Tour dabei, um zu helfen (da ihr Englisch fließend war). Vielen Dank!!
