A must do experience in Tokyo

An absolutely fun and amazing experience. If you are looking for an immersive activity to learn about Japanese Samurai culture and history then this is the place to go. The activities led by the instructor were well paced and very fun to do. He was absolutely brilliant with his instructions as well as his sense of humour and warmth towards us. The museum tour afterwards was also absolutely amazing. The guide did a phenomenal job of both entertaining and educating the visitors as we toured the exhibits. Honestly she would have made a phenomenal history teacher if she ever decided to become one! Visiting this museum is a huge reason why I have enjoyed my holiday to Japan thus far!

Adults and children are very fun

Bring children to experience today, really feel very recommended! Tourist Yu introduces Japanese history, especially the stories of samurai and ninjas, in a very lively and interesting way. Ninja swing (hand sword) experience is also fun, adults and children have fun. We also attended samurai experience lessons, teaching Ryo says his family is samurai for generations, the airfield is really different! He very seriously taught us the right sword-wing posture and basic tricks, although only an hour, but the content is solid and fun, full of harvests. The museum is not large, but very carefully planned, it is a small and beautiful, experience 100 minutes place. Travel to Tokyo is highly recommended to arrange this trip!

Good, informative and some fun.

Great experience, learnt a lot from our guide for the experience. Enjoyed putting on some Samurai Armour and being able to wield the blade. The learning of some fighting moves, the dueling with my partner. The step by Step instruction of attack, and then becoming a Ninja. All very much worthwhile and highly enjoyable. Try it and enjoy it for yourself.
