“Amazing way to explore an old fish market within Tokyo. Naomi is an amazing guide who taught us so much about Japan itself, as well as numerous types of foods and treats within Japanese cuisine. Then we were treated to sushi making with Miwa! Beautiful food and traditional ways of making it. And I learned my new favourite saying ... “oishi!!!” *delicious Thanks so so much from Georgina and Seamus.”
Explore Tsukiji Outer Market with a guide, temple visit, and nine Japanese tastings, from sushi and wagyu to dashi soup.
“It was not what we expected. Our guide was knowledgeable about the market and the area and we learned many things. But we thought it was going to be a food tour. The food we were offered was not great. Sushi rice balls (with tuna mayo!) and very average tuna sushi. Some greasy grilled fish and a strawberry something. A bit of a language barrier at the start maybe was the problem. As said, we liked our guide. But it was not what we expected and the price of the tour was ridiculous given the food we received.”
Pick a canal, a covered hall, a souk or a stove.
