⛩️🍣🍢🥩🍘⛩️ - I enjoyed this tour so much! the fee included most of the food we tried, including a wagyu beef experience, which was a pleasant surprise!
we had a good spread of different foods and cultural sites around the market, including behind the scenes of some of the eateries, and a few shrines
we had a small group of 4, the tour was very well-paced and our tour guide yoshi was very knowledgeable on history and answered every question we had
overall: 10/10 and would definitely recommend our tour guide: yoshi and his lovely group of trainee guides that accompanied us today
thanks again

Very helpful - Minoru was our guide and was easy to find in our meeting place. His information when attending the temple was very helpful. And our tour through the Tsukiji Market made the experience more enjoyable with his knowledge on local food types. I would recommend this tour for any new people to the area.
