Meeting Point

Tsukiji Honganji Temple

Arrival at Tsukiji Market

Short 7-5 minute walk into the Outer Market. I’ll give a brief history.

Tamagoyaki tasting

Visit a popular tamagoyaki (Japanese omelet) vendor to taste freshly made tamagoyaki and explain how it’s used in Japanese cuisine. I’ll recommend which styles to try and which shops sell the sweetest / most savory versions.

Fresh seafood sampling

Stroll the main alleys to watch seafood displays and sample small tastings (sashimi, hand rolls, shellfish) from trusted vendors. I’ll explain fish names, seasonality, and safe-eating tips. (Many stalls sell ready-to-eat portions.

Kitchenware & knife shop

Visit a traditional knife / utensil shop and show how Japanese kitchen knives and tools are selected and cared for.

Hidden stalls & local favorites

I’ll take you off the main path to small, lesser-known stalls where locals buy specialty items (dried fish, seaweed, pickles, sweets). I’ll share stories about the market families and local food culture. Time for souvenir shopping.

Quick sit-down sushi / recommended counter

If you’d like, we’ll stop at a small sushi counter or seafood restaurant for a recommended quick bite (1–2 pieces) or tea. I’ll suggest dishes based on your preferences and help order if needed. (Note: restaurants can be busy — I’ll choose a low-wait option.)

Final notes & end

Wrap up with final recommendations (best shops to return to, how to bring home items. Tour ends inside Tsukiji Outer Market at 11:00 AM.
