Overview

This two-hour experience in Tokyo begins with participants putting on a traditional Hakama garment to prepare for the samurai sword activity. The session includes hands-on interaction with replica swords, allowing visitors to pose for photos in front of studio or samurai-themed backgrounds. The experience aims to provide a realistic samurai feeling rather than simple costume play. Following the sword session, participants receive a guided tour of the samurai and ninja museum, where a tour guide explains the history and context of samurai and ninja culture. Children under 10 years old are not permitted to enter the samurai venue. Transportation to and from the locations is not included. Real samurai swords are not used during the experience. The maximum group size per booking is four people, but the experience may include additional participants booked through other platforms.

What is an Iaito? An Iaito is a specialized practice sword used in the Japanese martial art of Iaido (the art of drawing the sword). An Iaito is a specialized practice sword used in the Japanese martial art of Iaido (the art of drawing the sword). While it looks nearly identical to a real Japanese sword (Shinken), it is specifically designed to be non-sharpened for safety during training. Most Iaito are crafted from a high-quality zinc-aluminum alloy. This material is intentionally used because it cannot hold a sharp edge, meaning it is not classified as a weapon under Japanese law and does not require a permit. Dress Like a Samurai: Begin your journey by donning the traditional Samurai hakama. Feel the history and honor in every fold of this iconic attire. Learn Iaido Techniques: Under the guidance of skilled instructors, master the basic Iaido techniques with a replica sword. Experience the precision and discipline that defines Samurai training. !Children under 10 can not enter the samurai venue.! !You can reserve maximum 4 people from Viator however we accept any other booking site and there will be more participants in your experience!
