What Is a Private Tokyo Food Tour Like at Tsukiji and Toyosu? A Licensed Guide's Report
The guests came from Europe. One of the guests preferred a pescatarian diet, and they wished to try fatty tuna and crab, so at Tsukiji Fish Market we purchased both for them to enjoy, and they were very pleased. Since they already had a reservation for teamLab Planets, and also wished to see Toyosu Market, we headed to Toyosu Market, where I explained the vegetable and tuna auctions. At the end of the tour, they soaked their feet in a footbath to relax and ease their fatigue. They said they were glad to have learned so many things.

Hello!! My name is Mami. I was born and raised in Tokyo. I enjoy watching Japanese baseball games. I became a Certified guide in 2020. After the Pandemic, I resumed my guiding work in earnest, conducting approximately 80 tours in 2023 and over 100 tours in 2024. Please feel free to ask me anything about Tokyo! Not only information about tourist attractions, but I also love to eat, so I can suggest various restaurants! I live in an area called Yanesen, and the Yanesen area and Asakusa are my go-to walking areas. I also love exploring markets and discovering delicious restaurants at places like Toyosu Market and Tsukiji Market. Why don’t you come with me and walk through the small alleys that only the residents know about? I’m cheerful and can get along with anyone. Let’s have a fun trip together!

Tripadvisor review: Toyosu Market Morning Tuna Auction and Tsukiji Food Tour with Licensed Guide
Top Notch/Highly Recommended Fish Market Tour
This is a must see experience in Tokyo and our tour guide Mami was top notch and world class. Tour started with a visual viewing of the fish auction which included a full explanation of the history, operations, products and logistics of the market itself. Fascinating. Second half of the trip involves a food/vendor tour of the Tsukjii market area. We purchased a knife and sampled Wagu beef from a vendor. Bluefin tuna line was too long and we missed that opportunity. This tour was fantastic and the highlight of my trip. Mami is a world class tour operator and will be remembered. Thank you Mami!

Fish Auction and Market guide with Mami – excellent guide arrived at our hotel on time and
came with us to auction. Very knowledgeable. After the auction we also wondered with her
around the markets – provided good local tips on what foods to try best quality and price.

Vroeg opstaan maar dan heb je ook wat! Onze uitstekende gids Mami was ruim op tijd in ons hotel en samen pakten we een taxi naar de visveiling. Om 5.30 begon het bieden, echt fantastisch om te zien. Er is een observatie dek dat over de grote veiling vloer uitkijkt waar je honderden tonijnen ziet liggen.
Verder geeft onze gids ons ook nog andere gedeeltes van de veiling laten zien zoals kleinere vissen, schelp en schaaldieren en groente.
Tenslotte hebben we een taxi genomen naar de oude veilingsite waar nu een markt is met allemaal leuke winkels en restaurantjes. De gids wist veel te vertellen, paste haar tour aan onze wensen aan en sprak goed Engels. Een aanrader !

Viatorレビュー：豊洲市場の朝のマグロ競り見学と築地グルメツアー（公認ガイド付き）
早起きは大変ですが、それだけの価値があります！
私たちの素晴らしいガイド、マミさんはホテルに予定より早めに来てくださり、一緒にタクシーで競り会場へ向かいました。午前5時30分に競りが始まり、その様子は本当に見ごたえがありました。
観覧デッキからは広大な競り場を見下ろすことができ、そこには何百ものマグロが並んでいました。
その後、ガイドは競りのほかのエリア（小型の魚、貝類や甲殻類、野菜など）も案内してくれました。
最後に、旧市場の跡地にある築地場外市場へタクシーで移動し、たくさんの楽しいお店や飲食店を巡りました。
ガイドは知識も豊富で、私たちの希望に合わせてツアー内容を柔軟に調整してくれ、英語もとても上手でした。おすすめのツアーです！

This tour was amazing. Our guide, Mami, was the best and had tons of information to share.
She met us at our hotel and guided us through the auction explaining everything and then
through the market. Such a wonderful time. Definitely recommend.
