What to expect

For a truly immersive experience into the world of Sumo, consider two distinct options.

The first option (Option 1) is a morning practice tour at a Sumo stable in Tokyo. Here, you'll be accompanied by a dedicated guide who specialises in Sumo. Rather than simply observing the practice and then leaving, your guide will provide insightful commentary in English throughout the session, ensuring you gain a comprehensive understanding of this traditional sport.

Alternatively, foreign visitors to Japan can opt for a more interactive Sumo experience (Option 2). This includes a demonstration by former Sumo wrestlers, offering an authentic glimpse into the sport's techniques and traditions. Following the show, you'll have the opportunity to challenge these ex-wrestlers yourself - a thrilling chance to test your mettle against some of the best. To round off the day, you'll savour an authentic Chanko Nabe lunch, supervised by these same former Sumo wrestlers. This hearty meal is traditionally consumed by Sumo wrestlers and is sure to provide a fitting end to your immersive Sumo experience.

You can choose between the following options available in the order box:

• Option 1: Sumo morning practice tour with English-speaking guide
• Option 2: Sumo interactive experience with Sumo show and Chanko lunch
