CoupleVerified booking2 weeks ago4/5Arrived earlier to have lunch o. Restaurant as advertised. We were told No entry by staff. Only seating available outside were two bench seats for total of 8 persons. Everyone else required to stand outside, in our case it was raining, or in sun perhaps for others. Designers made no provision for elderly or those with children. The activities were immersive and excellent. Highly recommend for families and young teens. Staff inside venue friendly and smiling.SStella G

CoupleVerified bookingLast week5/5We absolutely loved the classic sumo show. Rio the MC was amazing and very educational. I even got to fight Morita, unfortunately he beat me. We highly recommend visiting "The Classic Sumo Show" — Live Bouts, Q&A with Wrestlers & Souvenir Photo · Shinjuku you won't be disappointed. 😊FFischer C

SoloVerified booking3 weeks ago5/5The experience was surreal! The pictures don't do it justice as to how you will feel when you actually walk through each exhibit. I will definitely recommend any friends and family that visit Japan to stop by and see for themselves
