Tokyo Cultural Experience by IJCEE

Tour Point

Tsukiji Walk

  Tokyo is one of the most famous gourmet cities in the world. It is the famous Tsukiji Market, with a total area of 230,000 m2, that makes this possible. A professional tour guide will escort participants around the market, safely in a small group, exploring both the vegetable and fruit areas plus the impressive seafood section.  On offer in the seafood section are more than 480 different kinds of seafood ranging from fresh fish to shellfish, and prawns. There may also be an opportunity to see a complete tuna being cut and filleted. Guests on this experience will also enjoy browsing in various kinds of shops selling all manner of ingredients from fish to vegetables and nori (dried seaweed), plus in the outer market participants can shop for dried goods.

  After buying various ingredients participants will visit a typical Japanese home. The guide will answer any and all questions about Japanese culture and everyday life in Tokyo during transfer by public transportation.

Making Sushi at Home

  Ms. Kuniko Kikuchi, a food advisor specializing in health food featuring ingredients such as soybeans, will show guests how to cook. She has extensive experience abroad and a good command of English. (In case she is not available, one of her students will instruct you.)
  Learn to prepare “maki sushi” (rolled sushi), "gunkan maki" (sushi rice wrapped with a strip of seaweed and topped with soft ingredients), and "nigiri sushi" (sushi rice topped with a slice of raw fish). The beautiful sushi designs created are sure to delight and will appeal to guests of all ages, especially children.

Sushi Party

  After making sushi and arranging them beautifully, it’s time for a sushi party and to enjoy eating together.

  Following the tour participants may take with them the utensils used in the cooking lesson. Impress your family and friends with your new sushi making skills by throwing a sushi party at home – the perfect Japanese souvenir!

  The guide will take you back to the nearest station, Oji or Akabane Station of the JR Keihin-Tohoku line.
