Fun, easy activity with great staff - I was worried it would feel too touristy but it’s so fun and good for groups. Nice way to avoid the rain and crowds.

The road to ninja is far away ꉂꉂ🤣 - Shurikens were kind and polite to me, who was completely insecure and problematic. In the end, I didn't hit it, but I was able to fly it to the wall‼️ I also enjoyed the city mission in ninja uniform, so I recommend it!️

Ninja challenge - It was already an experience, with the leader seeming somewhat listless. It was still fun and my son (13 years) was thrilled.
