About This Tour
It takes a little time to get here from central Osaka. You change trains and travel into the mountains. It is not the most convenient location. And that is exactly why this is where real sumo exists. The morning training held in the mountains of Izumisano is not designed for tourists. There is no staging. No performance. No scripted explanations. What you witness is the serious, everyday training of active professional sumo wrestlers, unfolding right in front of you. The intensity, the sound of bodies colliding, the tension in the air — this is sumo as it truly is. Within Osaka Prefecture, this is the only place where you can observe the morning training of active sumo wrestlers at such close range. For those who value authenticity over convenience. This is a one-of-a-kind sumo experience, well worth the journey. An interpreter is scheduled to accompany the experience, so international guests can participate with confidence.
