Fun at Japanese baseball game!

Very fun and interactive! Be prepared to have a good time! Japanese baseball fans are different than American fans. Learn the etiquette and cheering process and get involved to have a good time!

Fun way to experience baseball culture!

This was a really well done tour! We met the tour guides pretty easily and were told a little about the history of the Swallows. We then had some time to get some merch before heading over to the stadium. Both guides were personable and answered any questions. The game itself was super fun and VERY different than MLB. A really fun experience! I could have gone to any game on my own but having a guide really helped me understand the cheers, rules, etc! I recommend it!

Must see baseball with Jason

Japan was great overall, but this was our best experience during our visit! Jason was fantastic! Great communication leading up to the game to make the meet up nice and easy and explanations before and during the game of the chants and cheers and customs. I have been to thousands of sporting events in my life, and this one ranks right up near the top! This is an absolute must even if you're not a baseball fan!

Baseball in Tokyo

It was a lot of fun. The Dome is kind of crowded and seating is tight but I would not have missed it for the world. We were just lucky that there was a game that fit into our schedule. Maybe next time we will opt for luxury boxes, but this was a wonderful experience. don't plan on having dinner at the stadium, though.

Take me out to the ballgame

This was truly a great experience. I solo tripped to Japan and thought it wouldn't be complete without a japan baseball game. The host jason took me and a group to see the tokyo giants. What a totally entertaining experience. Our seats were in the cheering section for the giants and it was great seeing all the various cheers for each player. Jason was very knowledgeable and kept everyone up to date on the team and history. I would definitely do this again next time I visit.

I am a big MLB fan go...

I am a big MLB fan go Tigers. Going to a Tokyo baseball game was a must. There is not much of tour pre-game. What you are paying for is the seats location (fan section) and our guide was great. Explained the cheers the difference from their baseball rules and MLB. How MLB is more about long game verse there is more about short even though in second inning the opposing team hit a hr. It was nice to see strategic advancement of runner even with bunting. Our tour guides was very knowledgeable about sports in general we talked about NBA and NFL. The whole experience was fantastic. The atmosphere at the game with the crowd and their energy was amazing.
