    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 guide was very knowledgeable and passionate about the event. He covered the history as well as current wrestlers rankings and different strategies during the matches.

    Very easy to use. Convenient to be able to view tickets without an internet connection.“You just need to download the app—it’s very quick, and the tickets are easily accessible. The staff on site can scan them quickly, which helps avoid unnecessary queues at the ticket counters.
