Amazing personalized experience! - We had such a wonderful time with Oku, right from the start he was so welcoming, friendly and helpful! It was just the two of us that morning and we started with some history of Japan, seeing the theater and learning about the kabuki. It was a cold day so he even gave us little hand warmers to keep warm since much of the tour is outside (dress warm and wear comfortable shoes!) Oku showed us to so many gems of the fish market, covering the spectrum from strawberries to tamagoyaki to soybeans to matcha to dashi, kobe beef and tuna and more! We got to see behind the scenes action for so many spots, like where and how the tamagoyaki is made and some gigantic frozen tunas. All throughout Oku weaved in historical and current cultural information about Japan and was always hilarious, helpful and easy to understand. He even has explanatory photos, maps, and even models to help demonstrate. We tried everything in small, digestible quantities (would advise don’t come starving but come ready to taste). If you need coffee or more food along the way Oku will certainly oblige. He has friends everywhere in the market which makes visiting every stall so pleasant and easy! At the end we were able to see a shrine and learn about more Japanese culture before all having delicious sashimi and sake together. Overall we had such a lovely, unhurried time, learned so much and laughed so much. What a treasure of a tour! Thank you Oku!

Fun tour through Tsukiji market - Oku was our guide and he was so sweet! He took us to multiple places run by shopkeepers he knows, and clearly made an effort to explain the history behind the food and Tsukiji market. We saw a knife maker, a matcha producer, got to try tuna belly, and warmed up with dashi. Oku was so well prepared and thoughtful. Would recommend this tour!!

Fresh seafood - Tour guide was knowledgeable. Picked up some premade tuna sushi in a package and fried tuna from a side indoor place and took us to a bbq place to eat. Would have liked to eat at the actual market where the rolls are made right in front of you. I had to ask to stop and try oysters at a stall. Otherwise it was great getting glass the market. FRESH SEAFOOD And convenient to have someone show you around.

Still room for improvement - I could tell that the guide wasn't really familiar with the market. It was a new tour for her. Also English skills weren't the best. I regret to tell this but I paid a good deal of money for a tour. A lunch was tasty, tuna and salmon rolls. Sake tasting also very nice.
