Tsukiji Fish Market Experience: Explore Behind the Scenes & Enjoy 10 Seafood Samples

Exclusive Behind the Scenes: 60-Year-Old Seafood Restaurant

Your adventure in Tsukiji starts with a unique insider experience! While the majority of visitors stroll through the outer streets, your local MagicalTrip guide will lead you behind the scenes of a time-honored 60-year-old seafood restaurant. Gain an exclusive, up-close view of the chefs' morning preparations, uncover the market's distribution secrets, and appreciate the remarkable commitment needed to deliver the freshest fish in Tokyo.

Premium Tasting of Tuna, salmon roe, and sea urchin!

Get ready for an extraordinary seafood tasting experience! Enjoy a selection that showcases rare treats such as Nakaochi (tuna rib meat) and a three-part tuna comparison featuring Zuke (marinated), Chutoro (medium fatty), and Otoro (premium fatty). Additionally, you'll sample small servings of the highly sought-after Uni (sea urchin) and Ikura (salmon roe). Your local guide will demonstrate the proper way to taste these delicacies, allowing you to appreciate both the flavors and the rich culture of Japanese seafood.

Bustling Street Foods & Deep Cultural Shrine Visit

Following the tastings, we will explore the lively streets of the Tsukiji Outer Market for more seafood samplings! Relish local favorites such as fluffy Tamagoyaki (rolled omelet) and savory eel skewers while admiring beautifully crafted ceramics and renowned Japanese chef knives.
