5.00Family friendly experience, the kids especially liked the ninja throwing stars at the end. Good historical knowledge shared, but may also bore younger kids

5.00The tour was wonderful because the guides explained the history behind the samurai and the ninja and their differences. They also went through why there are no longer samurai. I love history and this was very informative. I also learned a lot about the samurai costumes and their swords. I had no idea that ninjas were basically farmers and fisherman. I would highly recommend this to.

3.00I was very interested in this tour and was looking forward to it. Unfortunately it was not what I expected. When I booked the tickets, it stated there would be a Samurai demonstration for the later bookings and 60-90 minutes should be allowed. The tour was over very quickly. The guide spoke very fast and was quite hard to understand, and that was the end of it. No Samurai show, in and out in 45 minutes. Pretty disappointing for the price.
