Know before you go

• This tour is held for a minimum of 3 people.
• On this tour, you can see the samurai performance show and try the samurai experience. As an option, you can also have a matcha and taiyaki experience, a strolling sensory area, and a Sky Tree area.
• Samurai is a long-standing Japanese mixed martial art. Its movement using a katana sword is very interesting, and the katana sword is very sharp.
• Do those who use katana swords have skills in using swords not found in other countries? Using a katana sword is not just holding it; you must understand the heart's movements, hand strength, and gentleness, as if you are talking to the katana sword itself.
• The matcha and taiyaki experiences must be reserved in advance, so please let me know if you want to do them. The market opens at 10 a.m., so you cannot visit before then.
• This tour involves a lot of walking, so wear comfortable shoes. If you are tired, let me know, and we can take a taxi.
• Please let me know in advance if you have allergies or other dietary restrictions.
