Edomae Sushi Tour with Expert Interpreter

Sushiuniversity is not a school where you learn how to make sushi. It is a fun dining experience designed to give tourists a deeper understanding of Japanese sushi culture. First, an interpreter will accompany you, so you don't have to worry about how to eat sushi or differences in Japanese customs. We also understand that you don't need an explanation of the menu. Still, talking with a sushi chef will definitely give you a sense of fulfillment that you've never felt before.
This is a bear warning in Japan added to the UK government's website on October 28, 2025.

Bear sightings and attacks have increased in parts of Japan, especially in mountainous and forested areas, including near populated zones.

Follow local advice and alerts, and take precautions if travelling in these areas.

You should:
・research the region to learn about the local wildlife
・avoid walking alone in areas where bears have been sighted
・take all rubbish with you, including food waste
・report any sightings to local authorities

Concept

How would you like to sit at an authentic, Edomae sushi (Edo style sushi or Edo sushi) counter, enjoying sophisticated conversation with the chef? Your sushi experience at Sushi University isn’t just eating delicious nigiri sushi. Each excursion includes a skilled interpreter who accompanies you from start to finish, allowing you to experience the culture and history of sushi as well as learn about seasonal sushi ingredients the chef’s specialties and style of the restaurant. It is also a unique opportunity to ask any questions that come to mind during your experience, all in Tokyo, the birthplace of Edomae sushi. If you’re coming all the way to Tokyo to eat sushi, take the time to sit at the counter and taste the work and tradition put into a single piece of sushi, making it an experience you will never forget.
