What to Expect
Step into the world of sumo with this unforgettable walking tour and live tournament experience in Tokyo’s historic Ryogoku district — the heart of Japan’s national sport. Start your journey at Ryogoku Station, where your English guide will lead you on a walking tour through the area’s most famous sumo landmarks, including Eko-in Temple, Edo-Noren, and the Kyu-Yasuda Garden. Learn about the history, culture, and spiritual traditions of sumo that make this sport so unique. After the walking tour, your guide will take you to the entrance of Ryogoku Kokugikan, the home of sumo wrestling. From there, you are free to enter the stadium and enjoy the tournament at your own pace. Before you enter, your guide will explain how to use your ticket, find your seat, and make the most of your time inside — so you can and explore and enjoy Ryogoku Kokugikan at your own pace. Then, take your seat and feel the excitement of the May Grand Sumo Tournament (Ōzumō Tokyo Basho) as the wrestlers face off in the sacred ring, surrounded by the cheers of the crowd. For guests booking the 2nd Floor A-Class Chair Seat, the experience is further enhanced in addition to the standard plan. Enjoy closer seating in the A-Class section and an enhanced walking tour offering deeper insights into the history, sacred rituals, traditions, and dynamic energy of sumo. The walking tour includes an audio earphone guide system, allowing you to hear your guide’s explanations clearly and in greater detail. Your guide will also accompany you inside the stadium, so you can experience the excitement of the tournament together and fully enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of the matches.
