Top Tokyo Shows & Performances

Muneeb was our private driver and tour guide for nine hours !! Our first trip to Tokyo was perfect because of his knowledge, personal attention to detail, and passion for the Japanese culture!! We saw the highlights including dressing up in kimonos and strolling the streets to the famous temple!! This tour guide made our Tokyo experience the best!! My husband needed help due to an injury- he was very helpful and patient!! Highly recommend

I would definitely recommend this tour. Our guide Tachi was so helpful in showing us around and answering all our questions. It was a great idea to do this on the first day since we covered most of the popular cultural sights and areas with her leaving the ret of our days for other specific interests.

Actually, we had a really fun time at the Tokyo Ginza Sumo Experience! I should start by stating that it was just the two of us. We are in our very late 70s/mid 80s… so probably not your “normal” age range…unless you are with your family. Originally, my husband did NOT want to go at all, but I talked him into it. After it was over, he said that he was pleasantly surprised and not just “happy” that he had gone, but “really happy” that he had gone. Now for the show, in a very informative … yet fun way… the emcee explained the history of sumo, the meaning of certain wrestling positions (along with detailed displays of each position by the wrestlers), and the customs, rules, and techniques of the sport which included interaction from the crowd. This included throwing small pillows into the ring and trying to “out-cheer” your opposing team. There were two wrestlers, so there were two teams, and the cheering was quite loud, intense, and exciting. We all were pounding our tables, stomping our feet and yelling at the top of our lungs in support of OUR wrestler…yes, even us old folks…LOL At the end, spectators could volunteer to see if they could “out wrestle” the wrestlers. These “spectators/volunteers” came back on stage wearing “sumo fat suits” …sooo funny. And, of course, at this point, we were all cheering for the fat-suit spectator… (Secretly, I’m regretting that I didn’t give it a try.) Overall, this was a super great experience, and that is coming from somebody that never ever thought, for a New York minute, that I would even be considering going to watch fat men wrestling with their heinies hanging out….LOL Go!!! If my husband, who is super bah-humbug negative enjoyed it, it’s a no brainer. Worth the expense and our time. Now with that being said, once you get there, it's complicated to find. You have to go down steps to what we would classify as a shopping corridor. They are then located shortly on the left. Hope that helps. It was confusing to us old folks as we had decided to walk there from Ginza 6 (10 minute walk).
