Popular Tours in Tsukiji Outer Market

My daughter and I were visiting Japan for the first time and our first stop was Tokyo Ginza area. We booked a 2 hour walking tour for the day we arrived because we only had a week in japan and did not want to spend time trying to figure everything out on our own. Sergio was our guide he met us promptly at our hotel. We asked him if he would show us the area and teach us how to use the subway. He took us to some fantastic spots and showed us some very cool stuff that we would not have discovered by ourselves and that weren't in any guidebook. By learning the subway and getting the inside scoop on great things to visit in Tokyo we saved so much time. We were really able to hit the highlights in a very short amount of time. Sergios guidance helped our trip to be so much more better than it would have been otherwise. I can definitely reccomend this tour company and our guide Sergio to anyone!!

Overall the tour was really good in that we saw and learned about lots of different foods and were able to see, try and buy as we wanted. Our guide gave us time to stop and purchase items of food and drink in the outer market area and even helped us to go back to a particular shop to get some sake at the end so that we did not have to carry it around the whole time. Our only issue was that we felt rushed in the actual inner market and we had to move fast to keep up with the guide. I appreciate that the times of the market have changed and that tourist time inside is limited but we had hoped to see more of the wholesalers working and cutting up some of the daily tuna purchase. My tuna sashimi breakfast dream did come true.

Toshi was a superb host. He took us through a smorgasbord of food and finished up with the best....stand up sushi with the locals. Couldn’t recommend enough. Did some shopping on our journey and saw a unique part of Tokyo that we couldn’t have done by ourselves, worth every penny.

Our guide Yoyikin (probably not right way of spelling) was just greate. She showed us around the whole area and explained alot about the different kind of seefood. And she made us feel like we knew her since a long time.

Honoku was an absolute delight. She selected a location and activity in consultation that was exactly how I envisioned it. Peaceful, interesting and interactive. She was warm, flexible and considerate. Thank you Honoku.
