This experience combines a guided visit to the Tsukiji Outer Market with a private, hands-on sushi-making session at a Japanese home — a setting rarely open to visitors.

Participants learn simple, practical methods of sushi-making that can easily be recreated after returning home. The goal is not to imitate a sushi chef, but to master the essential skills — such as preparing sushi rice, slicing tuna, and grating wasabi — in a relaxed, home-style setting.

Itinerary
This is a completely private tour, and a vegetarian option is available.
Your nationally licensed tour guide — who is also an experienced sushi instructor — will lead you through the lively Tsukiji Outer Market. Along the way, we’ll purchase fresh ingredients such as tuna, sashimi, and wasabi.
After about an hour, we’ll take the subway to my home, where you’ll prepare sushi rice, slice tuna, grate wasabi, and cut seaweed. Then, we’ll make three types of sushi: maki (rolled), nigiri (hand-shaped), and gunkan (boat-shaped).
Finally, enjoy your handmade sushi with miso soup prepared by me.
The class takes place at my home with a beautiful view, directly connected to Higashi-Ikebukuro Statio...
