Kyoto for kunst og kultur-entusiaster

The whole thing was amazing and not at all what my partner and I expected. The food was delicious, and the waiting staff were quick and friendly. There was an English speaking announcer, who was very engaging and gave so much interesting info, whilst also getting the crowd involved. The sumo wrestlers were so charismatic and really knew how to work the crowd. My boyfriend and I both volunteered to challenge the wrestlers - putting on an inflatable Sumo suit and trying to push the wrestler out the ring. The Geisha was beautiful and it was great to see her dance. Got a pic with them all the end - what an amazing start to our trip! So worth the money :)

We learnt a lot about the sport and its origins. There was instructional bouts on how to win and what is not allowed in sumo. Then some ofthe audience got selected to participate and go one on one with the sumo wrestlers

Guiden var enormt professionel, og både guide og præst var super venlige. Renselsesceremonien var både spændende og godt forklaret.

This was a fantastic experience that I highly recommend to anyone visiting Kyoto! We went for an afternoon show and it was a lovely experience. We learned about the history and daily practices of Geishas and Maikos, as well as got to experience a live performance from one of the few Maikos left in Kyoto!
