Tour Points
Sumo Tournament
Sumo is Japan's national sport. A sumo tournament called "Honbasho (Main match)" is held six times a year. One of these events is held in Tokyo.
The matches on the dohyo ring are very impressive. The sound of the Sumo wrestlers' bodies colliding echoes throughout the hall. The rules of sumo are very simple: the person who steps outside the circle or whose part other than their feet touches the floor loses.
Although the rules are simple, there are 82 techniques. Please pay attention to the techniques that are performed by their well-trained bodies.
Interpreter Support
This tour includes an English-speaking guide support during the Sumo tournament viewing.
It is much more interesting to watch the Sumo tournament if you understand the rule, techniques, and any information in English instead of Japanese
A unique feature of this tour is that it includes an English-speaking guide, which is not included on other tours!
