Amazing experience! One of the highlights of our trip! - Our guide Emi was amazing! So knowledgeable about the auction. Even other people were listening in to our tour to learn more about the auction. After the auction, we had some incredible sushi from a place she recommended. Then we got to explore the markets and ended up getting so much cool stuff. We ordered some pottery and she helped us facilitate the transaction with the store, down to arranging shipping directly from the store to the US. Really went above and beyond. I would not hesitate to book another tour with her. She’s an expert on Tsukiji and Toyosu!

Great early morning activity - We had a great morning with Yumi. The meetup at 5 am was a little worrying but it worked out perfectly and she was waiting for us when we got to the appointed location (taxi required). She had a great depth of information about what we were seeing, came prepared with visual material, and has excellent English skills and a lovely personality. Tip: go hungry and you can enjoy a market breakfast

Great experience - We had an incredible time. Mayumi was a wonderful guide. She brought us to places in the market we would have never found on our own and tailored the tour to our specific interests.

Great guide, great tour, great food! - Yumi was a great guide, who is very proactive and took good care of us! She is very knowledgeable about the markets and came with printed guides that she prepared for us! She also drafted a message in Japanese so we could pass it to the taxi driver to get us to the right place to meet her (fish market is huge and we won'twant to get lost at 5am and miss the tuna auction!). All these little thoughts count! Yumi speaks English well.

Best Ever Tour with Yumi - Best tour I have had in Japan. The experience was unique, interesting, fun and now I know so much more when ordering sushi. 10,000 whole Blue Tunas get graded, auctioned and shipped in a day ... amazing. We then got to tour the wholesale stores in the same complex where we found a family run knife store, true craftsman. Bought several knives (some of the best in the world) and they even engraved them. Off to complete the lifecycle of the blue tuna by going to a local market where they were sold (along with other seafood and vegetables) followed by a walk through a neighborhood with cute places to eat. Felt less like a tourist and more like a part of the everyday locals lifestyle. As usual everything was so clean, well organized and fresh. Our tour guide, Yumi, was amazing. Excellent english, comfortable energy, fun and of course very knowledgable. She followed up with other recommendations (sites and dining) via Whatsapp and sent pics. Can't wait to spend time with her on another tour. Thanks Yumi !!

Tsukiji market - Visit to Tsukiji is all about the market and trying different foods. If you are not interested in that then less appealing.
