Grazing the old fish market - I made an error and was a day late, but the company honoured our tickets for the next day. Very kind, they didn’t have to. Our guide Kyle, was thoughtful and patient started with a Buddhist temple introduction. Then off to the food market where we eat our way through many tasty seafoods from sea urchin to whale meat and everything in between! Got a chance to sneak through the commercial sea food section then sat down to a light lunch. After a lively discussion about all things Canadian and the local red light district we said our goodbyes. Lovely.

Miyu was an amazing guide! - Our tour guide Miyu was extremely knowledgeable about the history of Tsukiji Market and treated us to many dishes not just fish, but all kinds of foods. The tour ended on the best note! We got to eat sushi from the market on the rooftop, and the atmosphere there was absolutely wonderful.

Amazing tour - I had a wonderful time with Miyu. She showed me around and treated me to an amazing variety of foods. It felt truly luxurious, and everything was delicious. I highly recommend it, but you might want to skip breakfast beforehand.

It’s a Market tour not a food tour!!! - The only reason this tour received two stars is because the guide (Kyle) nice and did his best, this wasn’t his fault. However, it was completely misleading advertising as a food tour if no food is actually included. I’ve been on countless food tours around the world, and this was the only one that didn’t provide any food, making it by far the most disappointing! The listing clearly stated that tastings are included so it feels like a scam. For $160, we expected a true food experience, not simply someone accompanying us through the market. That’s something we could have easily done on our own. We took another food tour in Shinjuku the other day for the same money and it was amazing, and they gave us more food than we could eat. Would never give this company business again and do not recommend.

Did not work for us - We were ready for an amazing time based in the reviews but the tour fell well short of that. It only lasted for a little over an hour and our guide, Ran, read half of her printed out notes and did not discuss the culture, fish market or anything of relevance in the Japanese culture. It seemed like it was her first time as a tour guide and we expected a lot more for our family outing
