Recently did the walking Sumo tour with my family (all adults), and everyone really enjoyed our private tour! We learned a lot about the great sport of Sumo Wrestling while getting the VIP treatment as we walked with our guides past an actual tournament that was taking place in the arena! Our guides made the experience great, as they were very informative and patient with our requests! Thanks guys!!
