Good way to enjoy baseball as a "local"
The instructions for meeting were clear, the guide sent a few emails prior to meeting to give us a few other tips. They gave an overview of the baseball league and the difference between their league and the MLB. They went over different cheers and "etiquette" for attending the game. Unfortunately I got sick as soon as we got to our seats and had to leave the game in the second inning, everything up to that point was great.

A baseball host!
Although Jason was not available on the date we initially requested, he kindly offered tickets for us to purchase and met us to hand the tickets to us. He gave us guidance for game day. Despite being booked, he ensured we had a great time.,

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.
