Čo robiť v Nippon Budokan

Najprv by som chcel vyjadriť úctu a vďaku sprievodcovi „DAI“, ktorý nás viedol a poskytol nám úžasnú súkromnú prehliadku, aj keď sme takmer nevedeli po japonsky ani po anglicky! Hoci som jazyku veľmi nerozumel, myslel som si, že keďže ide o prehliadku pre viacerých ľudí, môžeme ísť bez obáv a užiť si pamiatky. Avšak, pravdepodobne kvôli horúcemu počasiu, tím, ktorý mal ísť s nami, neprišiel, a tak sa z toho nečakane stala súkromná prehliadka. Bol som dosť v rozpakoch kvôli jazykovej bariére, keďže sprievodca neustále vysvetľoval, ale bol som dojatý, ako láskavo a podrobne nám všetko vysvetlil, zatiaľ čo sme sa snažili porozumieť pomocou prekladača. Vďaka tomu sme si prehliadku užili a sústredili sa na ňu tak, že sme ani nevedeli, ako ubehli dve hodiny, a myslím, že to bude nezabudnuteľná spomienka na celý život. Pán DAI má rozsiahle znalosti o japonskej histórii a veľký zmysel pre poslanie. Urobil nám aj skvelé fotografie a odporučil nám miestne reštaurácie a atrakcie. Bolo naozaj šťastie stretnúť ho. Ešte raz ďakujem. - Choi Hong-man Cho-ke-

It was a great experience. I got chopsticks that I made myself, and they turned out amazing. My boyfriend chose Sonokeling wood; it's hard, but he did a great job. I liked Yakusugi; it was my favorite type of wood from the first time I saw it.

I highly recommend booking Shibuya Sky in advance for the very first time slot at 10:00 AM. From 10:00 AM onwards, visitors enter continuously by time slot, and since people don't just stay for an hour—many stay much longer—congestion builds up on the observation deck between the earlier and later groups. The more crowded it gets, the harder it is to take photos or comfortably enjoy the view. This applies to both Shibuya Sky and Tokyo Skytree. Personally, I preferred the structure of Shibuya Sky (45th floor, glass walls, open-air space, rooftop) over Tokyo Skytree (maximum height 634m, observation deck at 450m, entirely indoors). However, Tokyo Skytree might be a better choice during very hot or cold weather. Booking online through Klook is great because you can get about a 10% discount. Nowadays, if you don't book online in advance, it's practically impossible to buy tickets on-site.

Amazing experience. Rick is very calm and patient, an excellent tutor. This was honestly a really cool shake affordable experience and I have memories that will last forever from this... and a fancy new pair of chopsticks! 😁

Excellent show! What an energy to the show!! and Theo was brilliant as the MC. Truly made the show come alive! I left with a lovely understanding of the Sumo culture. Also great thanks to Hiro and Koji for their humour and enthusiasm through the show!! and answering my questions!!

This is such an amazing experience! The water section was by far our favorite. This is great for couples or friends or families. They had some neat areas especially for kids! I definitely recommend picking the earliest spot in the day as it gets busier as the day progresses.

I arrived a little early and they were booming with people. it was a short wait (10 minutes) & Kamila came over, introduced herself, and walked me through the entire process. Her outgoing attitude and gentle spirit made this process beautiful for me. this has made my Japan journey worth it even more. I will always remember Kamila and this beautiful process in bringing a piece of Tokyo back with me.

I booked this and the Kintsugi art class they offer and was so impressed. The staff were amazing and the place is amazing! My husband and I started with making chopsticks. They have a couple you can choose from that were included or you can upgrade to some other chopstick options. We went with the ones included. We worked with Umar and he was so patient and kind to explain each step of the process. For a small additional fee you can also have your name engraved in Japanese which we did! I would highly recommend adding this to your next trip to Tokyo!

finally managed to go up the skytree. wow it’s worth it. great experience, took lots of photos. believe it or not, the views on tembo deck is much better than views on the tembo gallery. there’s also multiple cafes, I ordered something to drink. good experience, worth it
