Toyosu, Tsukiji with fish auction
Our tour to explore Tokyo’s famous fish market scene exceeded our expectations. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and made sure we got a prime viewing spot for the action at Toyosu — well worth arriving early with someone who knows the process. There was so much tuna! Luckily at the end of the auction part of our tour we were able to have an outstanding omakase breakfast that was incredibly fresh and delicious. From there, our guide walked us through the original market, pointing out different fish species and navigating us through the maze of stalls with ease. Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting an authentic, well-guided look at Tokyo’s massive fish market.

Set your alarm clock and go!
Set your alarm clock and do it! Hiro was a fantastic guide from start to finish! He began with excellent communication on our meet up time and place which made us feel comfortable with him already. We loved that Hiro shared his knowledge and experience, answered our questions with warmth and great storytelling. The tuna auction was fascinating. We especially enjoyed our tour of the old market and enjoyed the best sushi of the trip (and our life time. Really,) Initially, we didn't want to get up so early and we didn't book this tour- but we kept hearing about how great it is. We are so glad as we did!.We highly recommend this tour and our guide, Hiroshi Nishiyama

Amazing experience
Bobby was the best tour guide we had in our 10 days in Japan. It was clear he was passionate about what he did. Don’t sleep on Tsukija market. He knew everybody, and was super informative.

Amazing experience!
Fabulous tour. Hiro was an amazing guide. He met us on time. Explained everything about the auction. We were lucky enough to have won the auction for better viewing and got to see all of the areas of the floor. Would highly recommend.

Awesome fish markets tour with Sachiyo
Great experience viewing the tuna auction at Toyosu. Sachiyo was an amazing guide. Went to a huge effort to accommodate out group of 6. Lots of great information. Then a short trip to Tsukiji outer market and some great street food. Highly recommend this tour with Scchiyo.

Why this scores 72
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Morning Market Adventure: Toyosu & Tsukiji with Tuna Auction: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tokyo.
How much does Morning Market Adventure: Toyosu & Tsukiji with Tuna Auction cost?
+
Prices start at $16080 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tokyo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Morning Market Adventure: Toyosu & Tsukiji with Tuna Auction take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tokyo is not rushed.
Is Morning Market Adventure: Toyosu & Tsukiji with Tuna Auction worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 143 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tokyo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Morning Market Adventure: Toyosu & Tsukiji with Tuna Auction?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Morning Market Adventure: Toyosu & Tsukiji with Tuna Auction suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Morning Market Adventure: Toyosu & Tsukiji with Tuna Auction?
+
Around 50 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tokyo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tokyo and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Morning Market Adventure: Toyosu & Tsukiji with Tuna Auction start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tokyo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tokyo?
+
Tokyo is less a city than a stack of neighborhoods with completely different opening hours. A guided food crawl through Shinjuku's Omoide Yokocho gets you past the no-tourist curtains, while the day trips west to Hakone and Fuji need an early start to be worth the fare. Our ranking weighs guide quality heavily here, because in Tokyo the guide is the product. On Outty we rank every Tokyo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Tokyo Shinjuku Chopsticks Making Class, Tokyo : Asakusa Chopsticks Making Class, Shinjuku Night Food and Bar Crawl. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tokyo?
+
Late March to May for blossom, October to November for clear Fuji views. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tokyo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
