We all loved the Sumo tournament in Osaka. The tickets were good and delivered in plenty of time to our hotel in Tokyo.
Ken was very helpful and kept in touch before and after the tournament. He was very friendly. Thanks Ken.
Great experience at Osaka Grand Sumo tournament
Published on Mar, 2025
Ken from Island Travel really made this experience special. Before I left Sydney, Ken was giving me tips and pointers on sumo. In Osaka he made sure that everything went smoothly. And I lucked in with a rare playoff for the title
Great time at Harubasho!

Ken was very helpful in securing us amazing seats for the grand sumo tournament in Osaka. He was able to find tickets for us for the final day of the tournament. I highly recommend his service! He follows up and ensures that we have an enjoyable time!
Fabulous day of Sumo
Published on Mar, 2025
We got great advice on excellent seating for the tournament. Arrived early and saw lower level bouts all the way up to the top contenders. Extremely interesting; well spent day!
I had a great time. Sumo...
Published on Nov, 2024
I had a great time. Sumo was one of my primary reasons to visit Japan. This tour does not dissapoint. I ended up getting upgraded to a full tournament. Kenneth was a wonderful tour guide. Very friendly and knowledgeable about the culture and that made the experience even more enjoyable. We were a small group of two plus our guide so it was more intimate and felt like friends hanging out. I appreciated that part the most. Thank you Kenneth.
