1Tsukiji Jogai Market
Dive into Tokyo’s food culture on a short but flavor-packed walking tour of Tsukiji Market. Led by a young local guide who knows every corner of the district, this one-hour experience focuses on tasting the market’s most beloved specialties. Start with a sweet and fluffy tamagoyaki (Japanese rolled omelet), then savor a juicy wagyu beef skewer hot off the grill. At a century-old tea shop, sample refreshing sencha and hojicha, and at a bean specialty store, try sweet black beans and roasted peanuts. Round out your journey with a traditional dashi tasting, learning how kombu, bonito, and sardines form the backbone of Japanese cuisine. Along the way, your guide shares personal stories and insider knowledge of Tsukiji’s history, vendors, and food culture. If something catches your eye—like a famous knife shop or chopstick store—the guide can adapt the route so you can step inside.
