Location, Instructor
Ginza is one the world's leading department store districts. Consisting of 10 major department stores: Mitsukoshi, Matsuya, Ginza Six, Wako, Tokyu Plaza Ginza, Marronnier Gate Ginza 1, Tokyo Midtown Hibiya, Lumine Yurakucho, Hankyu Men's Tokyo, and Marui; Ginza is a town loved by a wide range of people.
Home to commercial facilities, luxury boutiques, bars, and sushi restaurants for days while also having the highest land prices in Japan, being able to even open a store in Ginza is said to be a status marker for Japanese people.

The name "Gin za" (Silver place) is said to have originated from the fact that silver coins were once manufactured here in the Edo Period 400 years ago.
At that time, Ginza was mainly a town where craftsmen lived. However. gradually kimono shops and general stores opened up one after the other, turning the place into a thriving business town that continues to this day.


【Introduction of tour guide】
(Ms.) Yukako
I have resided in Tokyo for 10 years, living in a town that is 10 minutes away from Ginza by train.
Because my workplace is also a 10 minute walk from Ginza, I am very familiar with the town of Ginza both professionally and personally.

I studied for 3 years abroad in New York and had the chance to visit the Grand Canyon during a vacation.
I love traveling and browsing food spots so much that I have visited more than 20 countries so far.
I always like to enjoy travel and food as a set, like enjoying a bucket of shrimp in San Francisco and buying authentic Sachertorte in Austria as a souvenir.

When I went to France, I saw rare side dishes and a variety of cheeses. Since I didn't understand the language very well, I missed out on tasting these foods.

This experience inspired me to start this tour since I want to show people the delicious food found at Ginza's underground food markets, where all the delicious Japanese delicacies are gathered in one place.
