Amazing acting, sound effects, choreography and music makes this the best samurai show in town. I love all the characters and how cool they are. My favorite story is the Spiderwoman and the Butterfly, the Black Fox and obviously Tairo no Masakado story. You can take pictures with the actors after the show and talk to them. This a must see thing in Tokio !!!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 297 reviews · from $25

“Gray was a great guide. They showed us around the Shinjuku area with lots of insightful info about the location and history. It was raining the night I went and quite busy with other folks also on walking tours so it was easy to get lost amongst the crowd. Only suggestion would have been for our guide to have a colourful signifier they could have raised above the crowd as most of the group ended up just following me because I was the tallest and in a bright blue raincoat haha!”

We also had a sake-tasting experience where Miko explained the differences between each type of sake. I don’t think we would have found this place on our own. Lastly, we went to a little hidden-away karaoke bar and met some new people. Overall, it was a great experience with Miko!”
