Guide was super friendly and informative. Sushi making was a fun time and the master sushi maker was encouraging
Response from Host, Sep 2026
We profoundly appreciate your exceptionally enthusiastic feedback on your recent combined market tour and sushi-making class.
It is genuinely rewarding to learn that your guide was remarkably amiable and extensively insightful! The sushi crafting session was clearly profoundly enjoyable, and the culinary master was truly encouraging.
Your outstanding comments will certainly be shared with the guide and the sushi master; they will be absolutely thrilled to know the profound impact they had on your cherished day.
We are deeply appreciative of you taking the time to share your perceptions. We eagerly anticipate the opportunity to welcome you back for another memorable culinary adventure on your next visit to Japan.
This booking offered two very different experiences. The market tour was disappointing. Our guide offered little insight beyond things that were obvious on signs around the market and focused on just about everything other than the fish vendors. Toshi was a very kind and well-intentioned guide, but we left the market tour feeling like we would have been happier experiencing the market on our own. We have had other market tours where the guide knows a lot of the vendors and can give us the VIP treatment that could not be experienced otherwise. This was not that kind of tour. The sushi class on the other hand was terrific. Our guides Kate and Coco we professional, fun, and informative. It was a great experience! My suggestion would be to skip the market tour and do the sushi making class.
Response from Host, Aug 2026
We sincerely appreciate you sharing such comprehensive feedback on your recent experiences.
We are truly regretful to learn that your market exploration with Toshi did not fully meet your aspirations.
We deeply value your specific observations regarding the desire for more profound vendor interactions and unique experiences.

Our guide was Nick, who was very knowledgeable and kind. He took us through Tsukiji market and pointed out lots of things we would have not noticed or known. He recommended some places for us to stop and eat. It was a relaxing time. He then dropped us off at our sushi making class with Kate and Haruko. The class was so fun and we learned a lot! They even give you the instructions and recipes at the end, so you can make sushi at home. I enjoyed this tour.
Response from Host, Aug 2026

It's wonderful that you enjoyed two outstanding experiences back to back! The market exploration was clearly very interesting, and the abundance of excellent samples was a delightful highlight.

This is a very silly experience. Absolutely not necessary to have a tour of this market. You can do it alone!!! The sushi making was soooooooooooo bad. What a joke. This is meant for 4 year old kids and that’s not!!!! DO NOT RECOMMEND. We’ve done so many other cooking experiences that were great. This was terrible
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Thank you for sharing your honest feedback. I sincerely apologize that the market tour and sushi-making class fell so far short of your expectations, especially compared to your previous cooking experiences.
We completely understand your frustration regarding the simplicity of the class. We take your criticism very seriously and will review the content of our sushi-making experience to ensure it provides a much more engaging and worthwhile activity for our adult guests.
We truly appreciate your insights, as they are essential for our improvement.
My 20 year old daughter and I did this tour during our first trip to Tokyo and it was one of our favorite activities! We met outside of a Buddhist temple and started with a short tour there. We then went into the fish market and learned about its history, as well of some the guide's favorite stalls. We had the time to purchase snacks before moving onto the class.
Our class was led by Coco and an experience sushi chef. The chef demonstrated how to prepare fish for sushi, as well as sashimi. Plates with prepared fish and bowls of rice were set out for us and the chef walked through how to make different types of nigiri. Finally, we learned how to make a roll. We then got to eat our creations - delicious. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone who enjoys sushi!
Response from Host, Aug 2026
We profoundly appreciate your exceptionally detailed and heartwarming feedback on your recent combined market tour and sushi-making class.
It is genuinely rewarding to learn that this exploration was one of your and your 20-year-old daughter's absolute favorite activities during your inaugural visit to Tokyo! Your commencement at a Buddhist sacred site, followed by an insightful traverse of the fish market, gaining insights into its heritage and discovering the guide's cherished establishments, clearly set a superb tone. The opportunity to acquire treats before transitioning to the culinary session was thoughtfully appreciated.
Your sushi class, expertly led by Coco and an experienced sushi chef, sounds truly outstanding. The chef's masterful demonstration of preparing fish for both sushi and sashimi, coupled with the meticulous guidance on crafting diverse nigiri and rolls, provided a truly engaging and educational experience. Savoring your delectable creations at the conclusion was undoubtedly a highlight. Your fervent recommendation for anyone who relishes sushi truly resonates with us.
Your outstanding comments will certainly be shared with Coco and the sushi chef; they will be absolutely thrilled to know the profound impact they had on your cherished day.
We are deeply appreciative of you taking the time to share your perceptive insights. We eagerly anticipate the opportunity to welcome you back for another memorable culinary adventure on your next visit to Japan.
Yusei was our tour guide and he was great! I'm so glad we had him to take us around and point out specific items to try. Otherwise we may not have ended up trying as many new things, or would have ended up in long lines unnecessarily. Don't eat breakfasts before this tour! You will eat quite a bit along the way.
The tour through the market was fun and interesting. Our guide was amazing and introduced us to a lot of different aspects of Japanese culture. The last part of the tour was our sushi making experience. The interpreter spoke English very well, and the chef was great! We all enjoyed our time.
Sean led us through the fish market. He had insight and humour. We learned about Japanese food at street level and had a many opportunities to buy samples of hot off the grill sea and meat dishes. Kate taught us how to prepare 5 kinds of sushi. The class had a great vibe. Good insights wrapped in clear here’s how you do it instruction. 100% recommended.
We had a great time exploring the Tsukiji market with our guide Ko who recommended all the “must try” items that were all oishii! Then we had an awesome experience learning how to make sushi with Miky and Chef Tanaka. They made it very simple to follow and it was all so delicious! It was definitely a highlight for my husband’s first trip to Japan! We would definitely do it all again and recommend it to our friends who plan to come to Tokyo!
THE MARKET IS CLOSED ON SUNDAY AND WEDNESDAY.
This is in the fine print which we, and everyone else on the tour, didn't see. Please make this clearer, especially since there is no replacement activity to take it's place. Instead the guide took us very slowly from stop to stop.
Outside the market there are some stalls which you can try a few things, but that was it. Each stop would be very controlled and no one in the group could go check out other stalls on their own will.
The sushi making class itself was good. I just wish the market closure and morning tour was handled better as it was 2 hours we could have easily maximised ourselves.
Response from Host, May 2026
We are genuinely concerned and wish to express our sincere apologies upon receiving your comprehensive feedback regarding your recent market and culinary experience.
It is deeply regrettable that the marketplace was not operational on the day of your excursion. We are, however, pleased to learn that the hands-on sushi creation segment of your visit proved to be enjoyable.

The guides (Akiko) and sushi chef (Kate) were lovely. They toured us through the market stopping as needed and then we went to make sushi. The class was taught well and the food was delicious after when we ate it.

The tour of the outer market was great! Shoko-san did a great job in helping navigate the busy streets, pointing out long standing businesses in the area, and encouraging to try some delicious local foods. She allowed enough time to do purchases and also consume the food while we were moving around the area. She has excellent English and knows the area very well.
As for the sushi class, it was such a treat. We have the pro-chef teach us the right way to prepare the sushi with a food instructional demo before we made our own. There was also a very professional presentation and presenter that helped explain what we were doing and the ingredients we were using. The objective of the class was to learn how to form the sushi pieces, not making everything from scratch. The rice recipe and other useful materials were shared at the end of the class via QR code.
Overall, it was a good half day spent knowing better about Japanese food culture, and being able to assemble and then enjoy the shushi we made during the course.
Response from Host, May 2026

Her thoughtful allocation of time for both purchases and on-the-go enjoyment, combined with her superb English and extensive local insights, truly enhanced your journey.
The sushi session itself was evidently a true culinary delight. It is especially pleasing that our seasoned chef meticulously demonstrated the precise methods of preparation, followed by a remarkably professional elucidation of the process and ingredients by our presenter. The hands-on objective of mastering sushi formation, culminating in the provision of essential resources like the rice recipe via QR code, was clearly well-received. It is wonderful that this comprised such a superb half-day, profoundly enriching your understanding of Japanese food customs and culminating in the enjoyment of your own beautifully crafted sushi.
Your outstanding comments will certainly be shared with Shoko-san, our seasoned chef, and their dedicated team; they will be absolutely thrilled to know the profound impact they had on your cherished day.

For the price, I expected a lot more from this experience. The guide showed us very basic food stalls and then dropped us off to meet with another group to make the sushi in a very small, basic room that was upstairs from the food stalls where a group of 30 of us crammed in to make very basic sushi. I had a question for the translator about what the chef was saying and she immediately shut me down and said ‘not now’. if this was half the price, it would’ve been fair, but for what they charge this was not a personal experience and the quality of the tour and room the sushi making was in should’ve been a lot nicer. you can do the food stalls by yourself…. You don’t need a guide. Especially if they’re going to take you to all the basic places where all the other tourists are.
Response from Host, Jan 2026
We are truly sorry to learn that your recent food tour and sushi-making experience fell significantly short of your expectations, particularly concerning the value for the price paid.
Your feedback regarding the lack of a personalized experience, the quality of the facilities, and the feeling that a guide was unnecessary for such basic stops, are all taken with utmost seriousness.
Please be assured that we are launching an immediate and thorough internal review of this tour's itinerary, the quality of the venues, group sizes, and guide training to ensure such issues are addressed. We aim to provide experiences that are both personal and enriching, reflecting a fair value.
We sincerely appreciate you taking the time to share your candid perceptions, which are vital for our continuous improvement. We regret that we could not provide the memorable and high-quality experience you rightfully expected.
Exploring the market was informative and fun. And making the sushi was not only enjoyable, it was delicious! All of the staff along the way were perfect!

We are truly appreciative of you taking the time to share your perceptions. We eagerly anticipate the opportunity to welcome you back for another memorable culinary adventure on your next visit to Japan.
The market tour was fine. Our guide was very nice and very knowledgeable.. But, in retrospect we should have booked a tour that included tastings, although we were able to purchase food from any of the stalls. The timeframe was too long and we had tine to burn after the end of the tour and the beginning of the sushi class. We were mistakenly under the impression that this would include a tour of the fish market and it did not. I should have paid more attention to the description.
The sushi class was wonderful, a highlight of our trip!
Response from Host, Jan 2026
We appreciate your candid and comprehensive feedback on your recent experience, distinguishing between the market tour and the sushi class.
It is genuinely rewarding to learn that our guide for the market tour was very amiable and extensively knowledgeable, though we note your reflection that a tour inclusive of tastings might have better met your expectations. We understand your desire for greater efficiency and regret any confusion regarding the inclusion of the fish market within the tour, as well as the downtime between activities. Your feedback regarding the tour's length and the expectation of included tastings is valuable for our continuous improvement.
However, we are profoundly pleased that the sushi class was truly wonderful and a definitive highlight of your trip! It is always rewarding to know that a portion of our offerings deeply resonated with your experience.
Your comments will certainly be shared with the guide and the team involved in both parts of the experience. We are deeply appreciative of you taking the time to share your perceptions. We hope to offer you an even more refined and enjoyable experience on your next visit to Japan.
