We were met exactly where we were told and our guides explained the history and rules to Sumo. Our seats gave us a great view and we really felt caught up in the atmosphere of the event. This is definitely a highlight of our trip and we feel lucky to have been able to experience a genuine Sumo tournament rather than a display just put on for tourists.

This was an experience. I would've been lost without the history, religious and cultural explanation without the tour guides explanations as the fights went on. They know their stuff. Very glad I went.

It was great to see the sumo tournament and utilizing this option, with a guide, enabled us to do so although direct tickets are sold out. Finding the guide at the gate was seamless. The guide provided good insights during the matches. Well worth it. A really cool opportunity to see this during our stay.

Loved everything about this! The tour guide was so helpful and she was so enthusiastic and passionate about explaining things. The guide was flexible too, you could get up and explore the venue and then come back and enjoy the sumo show to your liking.

What an amazing Tour. Sumo itself turned out to be so interesting and rooted into the Shinto religion. Yuka did an amazing job explaining in detail. She knows everything and made it the best Guided Tour I had so far.
