Key Information
Description
How it works
This tour offers the option to meet at 12:45 p.m. for the Ryogoku sumo town walking tour before watching the sumo tournament. Those who don't join the optional sumo town tour will meet up at 14:45.
We will use two types of seats: chair B seats and box C seats.
• Chair B seats are farther from the ring than box seats. You can sit on a chair while you need to sit on the flat floor if you use a box seat.
• Box C seats are most favored by couples and families. Each box seat, in a square shape with each side being 130cm, accommodates four people. They are recommended for couples and families with two children. You can relax while watching the matches by stretching your legs or lying down; see the attached photos.
Last but not least, the box seats are closer to the sumo ring than chair seats, providing a great view of the action.
