Full description

This is a 1-hour experience in Tokyo. It is run by Ninja Experience Cafe Asakusa, Tokyo, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Tokyo is the largest city on earth by metropolitan population and it is best seen as a set of neighbourhoods on the Yamanote loop line rather than one place. Asakusa has Senso-ji, the city's oldest temple, and Nakamise's shopping lane; Shibuya has the scramble crossing and Shinjuku the bars of Golden Gai and Omoide Yokocho; Harajuku is Takeshita Street and Meiji Shrine's forest; Akihabara is electronics and anime; Ginza is department stores and sushi counters. Everything runs on time and the last trains are around midnight. Cash still matters in small restaurants, an IC card covers every train and bus, and tipping is not done anywhere.

The price covers Training with ninja weapons: shuriken, Guidance from ninja instructors, Photo opportunities and assistance, Ninja Costume Rental and Access to the indoor. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

Ninja Experience Cafe Asakusa, Tokyo sends the meeting point and time by email as soon as the booking is confirmed. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Ninja Experience Cafe Asakusa, Tokyo before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Includes

  • Training with ninja weapons: shuriken, blowgun, and katana
  • Guidance from ninja instructors
  • Photo opportunities and assistance (You can take photos anywhere in the cafe)
  • Ninja Costume Rental
  • Access to the indoor, climate-controlled facility
  • One non-alcoholic drink at the cafe

Das Ninja Training hat (besonders meinem Sohn (9)) sehr viel Spaß gemacht. Insgesamt hätte ich mir den Raum/das Gebäude größer vorgestellt, aber am Ende war es in Ordnung. Wir hatten nur das Getränk inkludiert, was vollkommen gereicht hat. Die Ninjameisterin war sehr nett und hat alle Übungen geduldig erklärt. Eine kurzweilige und spassige Aktivität.

It was fun to get into the ninja costume and try out the three different weapons. I wish it was longer! The whole session was just 30minutes (maybe because it was just me and my son). I was expecting little bit of a "ninja course/obstacle " experience too but maybe that is a different course. Overall I am still glad we did it.

Late March to early April for cherry blossom, or late October to early December for autumn colour and the clearest skies. Contrary to most advice, October is Tokyo's wettest month (234.8 mm), not the June rainy season. Full month-by-month figures are in our best time to visit Tokyo guide.
Get a Suica or Pasmo IC card and budget ¥1,000–¥1,400 a day. Do not buy a JR Pass for a Tokyo-only trip — it costs ¥50,000 and excludes Tokyo Metro and Toei entirely. Note JR East raised Tokyo fares on 14 March 2026, so Metro is now cheaper than JR on several routes. See getting around Tokyo.
Shibuya Sky releases tickets only 14 days ahead at 00:00 JST — it cannot be booked months in advance. teamLab Borderless tickets drop at 12:00 JST on the 1st of each month. Our 3-day Tokyo itinerary lists every booking deadline.
Yes — a Japanese licence or an International Driving Permit issued under the 1949 Geneva Convention. 1968 Vienna Convention permits are not valid in Japan. Licences from Switzerland, Germany, France, Belgium, Monaco and Taiwan need an official JAF translation instead. Arrange it before you fly; see the Tokyo go-kart guide.
Yes — the highway bus from Busta Shinjuku to Kawaguchiko takes about 1h 45m for ¥2,200. But manage expectations: Fuji is visible on 84% of December mornings and only 23% of July mornings, and cloud builds through the day, so go early. Details in our Mount Fuji day trip guide.
Edomae sushi (the Tokyo Bay style, where curing began as a workaround for having no refrigeration), monjayaki — a runny griddle dish unique to Tokyo with 80+ specialists on Tsukishima's Monja Street — and soba. Also worth knowing: Tsukiji Outer Market never closed; only the wholesale auction moved to Toyosu. See the Tokyo food guide.
The crossing itself takes about ninety seconds. What makes it worth an evening is one street back — Nonbei Yokocho, a lantern-lit alley of tiny bars a minute away that almost nobody who photographs the scramble walks into. Note street drinking is banned in the area 18:00–05:00 year-round, though the ordinance carries no fine. See the Shibuya Crossing guide.
Yes, some. Japan's cashless ratio reached 58% in 2025, so over 40% of payments are still cash — and card refusal is most likely at small independent izakaya, ramen ticket machines and market stalls. Tipping is not expected anywhere.
