Nice fun swordplay with historical background - Very entertaining delivery, good acting and nice costumes. My son (15) had a blast and I have to admit I enjoyed it too. Anyone who into samurai, swords, bushido, etc will surely enjoy it.

Authentic family Japan experience! - Authentic, fun, original! Our family of 4 loved this experience. It was the perfect mix of learning about samuri culture and getting to try it yourself. The instructors were funny, patient and took great pictures. Can't recommend enough for a great tour in Japan.

Be a samurai, just for a moment - The most fun and educational experience plus getting dressed up. The museum has some wonderful pieces of samurai dress wear. Would have liked more history but time limitation is understandable

Unforgettable Samurai Experience in Tokyo! - Our Samurai experience in Tokyo was absolutely amazing! From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and made us feel right at home. What made this class extra special was the intimate setting — it’s designed for small groups, and during our session, it was just two families. That allowed for personalized attention and a much more immersive experience. The class itself was both fun and fascinating. We learned authentic movements, practiced techniques, and even got to wear traditional outfits. The highlight was definitely the final performance — they recorded us acting out a short scene, and the final videos were not only hilarious but also looked surprisingly professional! Highly recommended for anyone visiting Tokyo — a perfect mix of culture, fun, and memories that will last a lifetime.
