Great fun at Tsukiji Markets. - My son and I had a wonderful tour through the Tsukiji markets with our guide INok. The meeting point was easily accessible and the tour provided a quick easy insight into the markets, different foods and local culture including the local Buddhist Temple. The tastings along the way and the lunchtime meal were just perfect. INok is easy to talk to on lots of topics and a real “foodie”. Along the way he takes a few photos of you which he shares with you at the end. He even helped us book our train ticket back to our hotel. The tour ends with a view from the 46 th floor of the Shiodome. Even though it was raining it was still a special sight. Once you’ve done the tour you would have gained better insight if you choose to go again on your own. Definitely recommended and thoroughly enjoyable.

Good sampling of sushi and friendly guide - The food tour was a good introduction to Japanese ingredients and speciality foods. Inok was an informative tour guide, answering all of our questions as we walked around the Tsukiji market area. The food we sampled was tasty and we had opportunities to choose several options. Highly recommend.

Great tour of the fish market - The fish market aisles are narrow and crowded, so it would be hard to navigate and understand the various offerings without a guide. This tour offers good value given Inok’s knowledge and all of the tastings along the way. I definitely recommend it.
