It was a wonderful trip. Our guide, Mari, is a true sumo fan. Full of passion and knowledge for sumo. She experienced the competition, and we did too.

The studio tour was good, keep atleast 4 hours for the whole experience. You get nice butter beer as well. Covered with most of the sets from the potter movies we get to experience the magic behind the camera. A go to for film makers, sound designers, production designers and everyone who's working in the backend ( production team ) of any movie. This is an inspiration

Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable about both the palace gardens and Japanese history and culture. As a Canadian, he was able to explain aspects of Japan that are different than North America. He was also incredibly helpful with assisting tour participants with planning how to get to their their next destination. I highly recommend him!

We had a fantastic experience at KidZania. My daughter loved getting to explore different professions, and each setup felt incredibly realistic and thoughtfully designed. She thoroughly enjoyed every activity. Everything was very well organized, and we never felt rushed despite the structured time slots. The pricing also felt reasonable for the quality of the experience. Overall, it was a wonderful and memorable visit—highly recommended for kids!
