Overview

Embark on a journey with a knowledgeable English-speaking guide, with insights into sumo’s rich history and rituals. Witness authentic live sumo morning practice — not a staged show — capture commemorative photos, and be guided by a sumo specialist who is also a national newspaper journalist. Get the chance to ask your questions.

This exclusive tour, granted special permission from a sumo stable, unveils the authentic world of sumo and its wrestlers — a realm unfamiliar even to many locals. Hosted by a sports tour specialist, this experience promises to be a Tokyo highlight.

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

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