Ninja experience - I used Golden Week to come and visit high mountains. There was a ninja experience cafe, so only my daughter experienced ninja. I threw shuriken, shot blowguns, waved swords and pretended to be a ninja with all the excitement!! It's a tourist destination, so I think it's a good experience. The prices are reasonable, too.

Ninja Master - You can experience ninja training. The kids were excited from start to finish, and they were able to experience everything from Toiai to Shuriken training and Fukiya training. It was like a master and apprentice, with good communication with the children, and they enjoyed it very much.
