*************************** please READ ME!!!!!!!!!! :) *************************** updated: Nov 29th 2016 Hi all! In the video you will discover that we had missed the tuna fish auction (that we so badly wanted to see for months!!!). We were super bummed out about missing the auction that day. We should have followed our own previous research and go earlier (around 1:00am vs. 3:00am) rather than listening to this "travel blog" that we had found on the internet (that was our mistake). If you'd like to go to see the tuna fish auction but are a bit overwhelmed with planning, and don't know exactly where to go or what to do, going there with a professional guide might be a good idea. If that's what you're leaning towards then the one I'd suggest is this one: http://bit.ly/2gEag1g It's a 1 day guided tour through the tsukiji fish market, and you'll actually get to attend the tuna fish auction with a professional guide there to explain everything to you (they know multiple languages including English). If you do not wish to get up that early for the tuna fish auction, but would still like for a guide to take you through the tsukiji fish market, give you insight into the history of the market and ease the anxiety of planning (and the language barrier!), then you can also do this short tour, that's just a small part of the day: http://bit.ly/2gi10zm Planning a trip to Tokyo and would like some suggestions?

Valentina ------------------------------------------------- Lining up for the famous SUSHI DAI @ Tsukiji Fish Market (Tokyo, Ginza) It was quite an experience to be lining up for 4.5 hours for sushi. We went in October so it was just a little cool during the early morning hours and it got warm by the time the sun came out. The sushi and the experience itself was worth it, but would I do it again?? Probably not, unless I am able to wait for only 1 or 2 hours (maximum -- that would be my limit). 4.5 hours was a bit too much and our legs and backs were so tired by the end of it. We also wished that we hadn't missed the Tuna Fish auction! That would have been awesome to see the action up close and personal. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
