What Is a Private Toyosu Market and Tsukiji Food Tour Like? A Licensed Guide's Report
[Japan Guide Agency (JGA Inc.)](https://www.j-g-a.org/) guide led a private tour of the Toyosu Market tuna auction and a food-walking experience at the Tsukiji Outer Market for guests visiting from North America. The guests had already spent time traveling in Japan and were scheduled to return home the next day. As one of the guests enjoys fishing as a hobby, they looked at Tokyo's fish market with great interest. At Tsukiji, the guests bought many souvenirs and were delighted. At Kitani Suisan in the Tsukiji Fish Market, they watched the butchering of an Oma tuna right before their eyes, and when I recommended trying the chunk-cut pieces and the nakaochi part of that tuna, one of the guests who had hesitated at first was moved by how delicious it was.

Hi friends, I’m Seky, a tour guide in Tokyo, but I cover all over Japan, namely from Hokkaido to Kyushu. I have lived overseas for more than 15 years in total, such as US, UK, Singapore and others, and enjoyed local culture there. Back in Japan, I wish I could help travelers to Japan enjoy Japanese culture, and this is why I became a tour guide.
In Tokyo, my favorite places are Shibuya, Harajuku, Asakusa, and if you are interested in fish market, I’d love to take you to the world largest Tuna auction and/or if you are sports lovers, I’ll go to ball games (baseball) too.

Great tour, customized to my interests, Edo period cultural sites. Mr. Seky was an excellent guide who reached out to me before the tour and proposed an itinerary based on my interests. Tokyo is a large city, and having a tour guide who efficiently navigated the geography was invaluable. Also Mr. Seky was friendly, knowledgeable, and shared his insights and suggestions. I highly recommend this tour. Thank Mr. Seky.
