Embark on a journey with a knowledgeable English-speaking guide, commencing with insights into sumo’s rich history and rituals. Witness a live sumo morning practice, capture commemorative photos, and enjoy being guided by a sumo specialist who is also a national newspaper jounalist. Get a chance to ask all the questions you want.

This exclusive tour, granted special permission from the sumo stable, unveils the world of sumo and its wrestlers, a realm even unfamiliar to many locals. Hosted by an operator specialized in sports-related tours, this experience promises to be a Tokyo highlight.

Immerse yourself in the rare opportunity to explore a facet of Japan’s heritage. Enjoy a glimpse into the world of sumo, a privilege seldom accessible even to the Japanese people!

You will observe morning practice at a sumo stable (location may vary by date). After watching sumo practice at a sumo stable, you can visit a lush Japanese garden on the walk to Ryogoku Kokugikan (Sumo Arena).

  • Really good experience, although a bit expensive

    This was a really fun experience. Watching the Sumo wrestlers train was a really unique experience. It was enhanced by the tour afterward, and the explanation by our tour guide Shinya (who was previously a reporter for sumo). Although it was a bit on the expensive side, it was worthwhile.
