Tokyo Tsukiji Fish Market Food & Culture Walking Tour com um local!

We loved our tour with Ronnie. She is very passionate about the food on the superb market. Thanks to her we found the best tuna sashimi, the juiciest oysters and the most delicious marinated cod. We topped our lunch off with a strawberry moochi to die for and lovely sake. Ronnie is charming, witty and caring. She is a great source on interesting information about the Japanese food culture. She is truly one of a kind. Totally recommended!!

I would highly recommend this tour!! My parents and I had a wonderful time with Ronnie, our tour guide, who was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the Tsukiji market, what has changed with the market in the last few years with the pandemic and the Tokyo Olympics, the best stands to hit in the chaos (gotta try the miso cod), subtle recommendations that enhanced our experience (grinding the wasabi root ourselves), and smaller side markets that are both less crowded and possibly cheaper. The best part about the tour was that we were able to take our haul of goodies and sit at the 38KIOSK bar, which had incredible local energy and great drinks. This was one of the best things we had done on our trip to Tokyo — highly recommend doing this for any party to enhance your Tsukiji market experience!

Nao, our guide, was fantastic: knowledgeable and friendly. We will definitely recommend the tour to others. We are looking forward to the pictures he took.

We went on a Saturday morning before Christmas. The market was busy but managable. Later in the day it got more crowded. Our guide, Ronnie met us at the Temple main gate and walked us through the market pointing out unique food items that were being prepared for the holidays. She took us through the outer market and to some of the adjacent market place buildings where usually only restaurant owners and locals shop. It was so helpful to have her guide us through the market to explain what we were seeing and eating and to talk to the shop owners for us (we do not speak Japanese) After we did our walking and shopping, she took us to the small bar area owned by the tour company. There we sat and casually ate our food and drink. We met the bartender, Sean, and struck up a nice conversation with him as well. It was great experience and I highly recommend this to anyone who has never been to Tsukiji Market.

Touring Tsukiji Outer Market and a nearby temple and shrine with Risa was one of the highlights of our trip! We learned so much - about Buddhist and Shinto rituals - and of course food! We love visiting food markets wherever we travel and totally recommend going with Risa so you don’t miss things that you might otherwise miss without the insights of a local! We tried all kinds of food and took our favourites back to enjoy with a sake tasting at their affiliated bar in one of the little alleys right off the market - the perfect place to enjoy your delicious finds away from the bustle of the market streets. So nice to hang with you Risa and thanks for the excellent tips on where to eat in Niseko! See you next time!

The find food with locals tour was an absolute highlight of my time in Tokyo. I have wanted to visit the famous Tsukiji Market ever since I have known of its existence. However, some of my friends had warned me before going about how crowded it can be and how somethings have been known to priced for tourists. When I discovered this tour something that stuck out was that it offered a true opportunity to eat! On the day of, our local tour guide talked to us about what kinds of things we wanted to see and eat then expertly steered us through to bustling market. Once we had gathered up the items we desired (as well as some recommendations from our guide) we headed to the 38 Kiosk Bar. This little stall nestled inside an inconspicuous alley in the market was the perfect place to escape the shoulder to shoulder crowds and chow down on our delicious food. The bartender was extremely friendly and recommended us some Sake to drink with our meal. To anyone who wants to go to Tsukiji for the purpose of learning about the area, eating great food, and trying some great drinks, I highly recommend this tour!

My partner and I had an amazing time exploring the outer markets of Tsukiji. Risa, our guide, gave great insight into the fare and wares of the neighborhood, while also providing mini-history lessons to enrich our whole travel experience. Recommend this walking tour without reservation for novice travelers all the way to seasoned explorers.

I went with my girlfriend to explore Tsukiji but we wanted to do something more local. This was definitely the right thing to do. Was so much fun! our guide took us around the market and explained everything, while buying snacks for later. After that we went to this really cool little bar in a covered alleyway where we could eat all the snacks we bought and have a drink. We made friends with a couple of Japanese people who were sitting next to us. I can only highly recommend this!

I can't recommend this tour enough! Our guide, Risa, went above and beyond by not just showing us the best spots at the market, but also taking us to hidden temples and shrines. She shared some fantastic local insights along the way. The kids really enjoyed learning the culture! One of the best moments was having lunch and drinks at 38KIOSK, where we got to sample fresh market food and enjoy a great time with the locals, making it a memorable family experience!

I’m so happy we chose to do this tour ! It was such a cool experience and definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Japan. My favorite part was spending time at the cozy local venue where we ended the tour, there we could relax and enjoy all the delicious food we picked up at the market ! It was such a great atmosphere, sharing drinks with locals while eating fresh seafood made it extra special ! Our guide, Risa, was fantastic ! extremely helpful, with great shopping tips and cultural insights about the temples and shrines around the market. Traveling with my parents, this was the perfect way to experience Japan’s amazing fish and seafood. We had a fantastic time together as a family !
