What to expect

Experience Tokyo’s legendary fish market beyond the public galleries on this exclusive, behind-the-scenes Toyosu Fish Market tour.

After years of controversy and delay, Tokyo’s legendary Tsukiji Market —once the largest in the world—relocated to Toyosu market in Tokyo Bay in October 2018. While Tsukiji’s wholesale floor was once accessible to visitors, Toyosu now restricts public access to upper observation galleries only.

On this exclusive experience, you’ll go far beyond the viewing decks. Accompanied by a professional chef, enjoy rare access to the Toyosu market floor, an area normally reserved for licensed buyers. Wander through a labyrinth of seafood stalls, select the finest ingredients, and learn the subtle art of seafood grading and selection, that shape the menus of Tokyo’s most celebrated restaurants.

The experience concludes with a visit to the Tsukiji Outer Market, before savoring a meal crafted from the fish you personally chose.
