Sumo guided tour with Grand Sumo Tournament and optional dinner
Overview
What sets this tour apart is its focus on the origin, history, and culture of sumo, as well as real-time commentaries in the sumo arena as the match progresses. The tour is a small group tour of a maximum of 10 travellers with real-time commentaries by a sumo expert guide.
The tour consists of two parts: a visit to sumo-related historical landmarks and viewing bouts in the sumo arena with real-time commentaries, accompanied by a sumo expert guide. Some of the highlights include a walking tour around Ryogoku, a sumo town. Increase the joy of watching the tournament by learning a lot about sumo from your knowledgeable guide as you visit many sumo-related must-see spots before you actually view the bouts in the arena. While the tour entails the two essential and integral parts, you can enjoy a 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM option where one can just join the sumo viewing part.
