Our Favourites
-Watch the Sumo morning training at a Sumo table in Tokyo- The Sumo-wrestler's who are highly ranked/skilled normally start their training from 8 am. If you go and watch the match in the Sumo Stadium it's really difficult to get a seat close to the sumo ring, but the good thing about this tour is that you get to watch their training from a very close distance!
-A local tour guide will take you to the "World of Sumo"- How well do you know about Sumo?A local tour guide will be there for you throughout the tour to give you insights. Please feel free to ask any questions during the tour!
