Experience Details
Tsukiji is one of Tokyo’s most iconic food districts, where tradition and modern city life meet.
Once home to the city’s famous wholesale fish market, it remains a vibrant culinary hub, especially around the Tsukiji Outer Market, known for fresh seafood and specialty ingredients just steps from Ginza and Tokyo Tower.
In this hands-on sushi experience, you will be welcomed by a professional sushi chef and guided through the art of sushi-making using fresh ingredients and authentic tools sourced from the market. The class is designed to be both educational and interactive, giving you a closer look at Japanese food culture.
You will begin with a short introduction to the history of sushi, followed by a step-by-step demonstration from your chef.
