Embark on a morning adventure at the renowned Tsukiji Fish Market. Take a stroll through the bustling market, filled with lively food stalls and shops. This is the ultimate destination for the freshest and most delectable sushi breakfast imaginable. Although the wholesale section, famous for its tuna auction, has moved to Toyosu, Tsukiji remains the prime spot to explore and sample all the products sold in Toyosu.With over 2,500 tons and 450 types of fish passing through daily, you're sure to encounter some unfamiliar foods. Whether it's squid jerky or omelette on a stick, Tsukiji promises a sensory feast. At each stop, your guide will share stories about the ingredients, techniques, and traditions. Discover how ginger and wasabi enhance sushi, why dashi made from bonito flakes is essential to Japanese cuisine, and how daifuku (mochi) symbolises harmony through texture and simplicity. From rooftop terraces to stand-up sushi counters, this is Tokyo as experienced by locals: fast-paced, flavourful, and rich in significance.The tour also includes a glimpse into Japan's past and culture with a visit to a small shrine near the market. Observe local customs before and after passing through a torii gate and learn the respectful way to enter the main hall. Before exploring on your own, ask your guide for additional tips on must-visit spots during your stay in Tokyo.
