【What to Expect: Your Experience Timeline】

1. A Warm Welcome in a Nostalgic Atmosphere
   Your journey begins with a walk through the charming Sunamachi Ginza, a street famous for its “Showa-era” retro vibes and incredible food.

Our experts will provide fascinating commentary on the history, rituals, and the strict lifestyle of these modern-day warriors.
