Highlights

Eat and shop like a Japanese local and immerse yourself in this food-themed trip inside both of Tokyo’s two famous fish markets, Toyosu and Tsukiji. Quite possibly the best places to get a sense of Japanese culinary culture!


Meet up with your guide at your hotel or Toyosu to view the fish selling and processing from the observation deck. Afterwards, head toTsukiji Market where you will experience the energy and excitement of the local kitchen. As you navigate your way through this labyrinth of all things seafood, learn from your guide about the market’s history and why many of Japan’s top chefs visit daily to pick up the freshest-quality ingredients.


After the tour, you can stay in the market to enjoy the rest of your breakfast or lunch at your leisure.

Itinerary

  • Toyosu Market

    1 hoursAdmission Ticket Not Included
    Toyosu Market (豊洲市場, Toyosu Shijō) opened on October 11, 2018 on the man-made island of Toyosu in the Bay of Tokyo. It took over the wholesale business from the aging Tsukiji Market and provides tourists with an opportunity to observe the market action and to dine at restaurants across its large, modern premises. The huge wholesale market consists of three main buildings: two buildings for seafood and one for fruits and vegetables. All buildings are connected with each other and Shijo-mae Station via walkways, and tourists can enter them along dedicated routes and view the action from observation windows that look onto the auction and wholesale halls for tuna, other seafood and produce. This tour does not include tuna auction viewing.
  • Tsukiji Fish Market

    2 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    Meet up with your guide at Tsukiji Honganji Temple, just outside the market’s main gate, in the morning. As you navigate your way through this labyrinth of all things seafood, learn from your guide about the market’s history and why many Japan’s top chefs visit here daily to pick up the freshest-quality ingredients. You never know what you might find as you stroll past the stalls of this amazing food center. You might see piles of sea urchin (uni) stacked neatly in boxes, watch as vendors carve massive Bluefin tuna or spot puffer fish floating in tanks. You can also visit the temple and shrine in Tsukiji and learn about the history of this land that was reclaimed from the sea to become a bustling market!
  • Namiyoke Inari Shrine

    15 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    The history of Tsukiji is rich and you can lean about some of this history when you visit Namiyoke Shrine! This Shinto Shrine is meant to keep away the waves from this land reclaimed from the sea!
  • Tsukiji Hongwanji Temple

    30 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    Buddhism has a long history in Japan and there are many temples all across the country. The Honwanji Temple is known for its unique construction and is a great opportunity to learn about Japanese Buddhism on your trip!
