We had a great experience with Jack. He knows the area well (he lives walking distance) and showed our group all the best places to try and see. He speaks loudly and clearly which is important in a busy market. It would have been overwhelming without him and this tour enhanced my experience visiting this market. I learned a lot about the history of this market and the area. group size: 8
Nice intro tour for those completely new to Tsukiji Market. Meet up was very clear and guide Kenny was there nice and early. It was only our family and one other couple but Kenny was great and very friendly with us and our kids. She took us to a number of different stalls and even brought her own fresh wasabi to try.
Went this walking tour with Kawa this morning. What an amazing experiece! He was so knowledgable and gave us great snippets of culture and japanese history. The food he suggested was so good!
Akira was a great guide, very friendly and more than happy to answer any questions we had. The market is very busy, and this was our first full day in Japan, starting the morning with a guide made it not as overwhelming. Getting to meet people in the group was fun as well.
we booked this last minute and thank goodness because it was the perfect last day option. George took us through the market and showed us some terrific food options and gave us some great info about the area. we just paid for our food as we wanted it and having someone to order for us was great. highly recommend
This walking tour was just what we wanted from Tokyo fish market. George is a super nice guy and well educated with exceptional local knowledge. His English was perfect. George took us to a few food market vendors for snacks and nothing disappointed us. Just a perfect relaxing morning before we headed to our cruise ship. Thanks again George.

Our guide, Ms. Kenny, was fantastic. She was friendly and always helpful, guiding us well through the market. We stopped at the most important shops and were able to enjoy a tasting. We would book this tour again immediately.
Great way to see the market and try some amazing food. Ayaka was a great guide who we would all use again! It was very useful having a guide as we tried different things and got some information about the market and surrounding areas.
Kenny was an excellent guide and explained so much about the market and Japanese cuisine. I highly recommend trying this tour: it's short, easy, and delicious thanks to the dishes you can eat at the market.
we had the most amazing time with Ayaka and Mel on the tour. They were so knowledgable and had the best recommendations for food. Everything we ate was delicious - especially the three types of tuna, grilled scallop and crab leg! Would recommend this tour to anyone coming to Tokyo!
