Tokyo is one of the most famous gourmet cities in the world. It is the famous Tsukiji Market, with a total area of 230,000 m2, that makes this possible. On the basis of "visiting rules" established by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, one of the guides in our group will show participants around the market, safely in a small group of 4 or less exploring both the vegetable and fruit sections and the impressive seafood section. Especially attractive are the more than 480 different kinds of seafood on display in the seafood section ranging from fresh fish, to shell fish and prawns. There may also be an opportunity to see a complete tuna being cut and filleted. In Tsukiji Market, active shopkeepers and craftsmen work their traditional skills and way of life daily.
Guests on this experience will also enjoy browsing in various kinds of shops selling fish, vegetables, nori (dried seaweed), and dried seafood in the outer market. Since shoppers are buying direct from intermediate wholesalers in the inner market the volume of food and ingredients is substantially larger, often sold by the kilo.
