The Sumo Tournament Experience is a 4-hour experience at the official basho (sumo tournament) with a private group. On this tour, not only will you learn about many ancient Japanese traditions that have been preserved in sumo, including ritual elements such as the use of salt purification, you’ll also get to cheer on and greet the most famous sumo wrestlers in Japan as they are entering the stadium for their big match. Once you are inside of the stadium, you’ll be seated at A-class reserved seats (or B-class in some cases), which has the a great overview of the match with chair seatings in the stadium.
