Full description

This is a 3.5-hour experience from Tokyo, built around Toyosu Market Fisheries Intermediate Wholesale Market Building, Toyosu Market and Tsukiji Outer Market. It is run by Clover Travel Co., Ltd., an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Tokyo's wholesale fish market moved from Tsukiji to Toyosu in 2018, but the Tsukiji Outer Market, the lanes of shops and stalls around the old site, stayed and is where the food walks go: tamagoyaki on a stick, tuna cuts, uni, grilled scallops and knife shops, busiest from about 8:00 to 11:00 and closed on Sundays and some Wednesdays. The tuna auction itself is at Toyosu, watched from a viewing deck before 6:30 with an advance lottery. Sushi classes teach shari, the vinegared rice, and the hand pressure of nigiri; most run two to three hours and you eat what you make.

The price covers Walking Tour, guided tour of Toyosu Market and the tuna auction and Toyosu Market to Tsukiji Market transportation costs. It does not cover Breakfast, Tips, Personal travel or accident insurance and Drop off service, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

Clover Travel Co., Ltd. sends the meeting point and time by email as soon as the booking is confirmed. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Clover Travel Co., Ltd. before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Had an amazing tour of the markets with Alex! He was very knowledgeable about the markets and their history. He also showed us some great spots a little off the beaten path and gave excellent suggestions on where to get the best food for the best price. He kept us perfectly on schedule, and the transport between the markets was super smooth. I’ll definitely be recommending this tour to anyone looking to explore the fish markets and Tsukiji Market.

This tour was good in that you definitely got to see the tuna auction at Toyosu but these days Tsukiji is not much to look at other than more Tourist type shops and food. Our guide was from China and while very nice lacked some specific knowledge to some questions.

The tour introduced the history of Japan’s seafood industry and also let us compare Toyosu’s modern auctions with Tsukiji’s traditional market. It was very interesting and we learned a lot.

I loved every minute of this early-morning tour! The efficient route saved us a lot of time, and the seafood breakfast was very fresh. The guide was professional and friendly, and the audio guide made sure we didn’t miss any details. The whole experience went very smoothly. I will definitely recommend it to my friends!

This tour exceeded my expectations! Watching the tuna auction from the viewing deck was such a unique cultural experience. The guide’s knowledge about the seafood supply chain was impressive, and every part of the itinerary felt well-planned. Transportation was included and hassle-free. Definitely a must-do in Tokyo.

Late March to early April for cherry blossom, or late October to early December for autumn colour and the clearest skies. Contrary to most advice, October is Tokyo's wettest month (234.8 mm), not the June rainy season. Full month-by-month figures are in our best time to visit Tokyo guide.
Get a Suica or Pasmo IC card and budget ¥1,000–¥1,400 a day. Do not buy a JR Pass for a Tokyo-only trip — it costs ¥50,000 and excludes Tokyo Metro and Toei entirely. Note JR East raised Tokyo fares on 14 March 2026, so Metro is now cheaper than JR on several routes. See getting around Tokyo.
Shibuya Sky releases tickets only 14 days ahead at 00:00 JST — it cannot be booked months in advance. teamLab Borderless tickets drop at 12:00 JST on the 1st of each month. Our 3-day Tokyo itinerary lists every booking deadline.
Yes — a Japanese licence or an International Driving Permit issued under the 1949 Geneva Convention. 1968 Vienna Convention permits are not valid in Japan. Licences from Switzerland, Germany, France, Belgium, Monaco and Taiwan need an official JAF translation instead. Arrange it before you fly; see the Tokyo go-kart guide.
Yes — the highway bus from Busta Shinjuku to Kawaguchiko takes about 1h 45m for ¥2,200. But manage expectations: Fuji is visible on 84% of December mornings and only 23% of July mornings, and cloud builds through the day, so go early. Details in our Mount Fuji day trip guide.
Edomae sushi (the Tokyo Bay style, where curing began as a workaround for having no refrigeration), monjayaki — a runny griddle dish unique to Tokyo with 80+ specialists on Tsukishima's Monja Street — and soba. Also worth knowing: Tsukiji Outer Market never closed; only the wholesale auction moved to Toyosu. See the Tokyo food guide.
The crossing itself takes about ninety seconds. What makes it worth an evening is one street back — Nonbei Yokocho, a lantern-lit alley of tiny bars a minute away that almost nobody who photographs the scramble walks into. Note street drinking is banned in the area 18:00–05:00 year-round, though the ordinance carries no fine. See the Shibuya Crossing guide.
Yes, some. Japan's cashless ratio reached 58% in 2025, so over 40% of payments are still cash — and card refusal is most likely at small independent izakaya, ramen ticket machines and market stalls. Tipping is not expected anywhere.
