\\The Live Auction & The People:// Witness the high-energy tuna auction right before your eyes! While you capture photos and videos of the impressive rows of tuna, I will introduce you to the different roles of the people working here—from the buyers to the market staff. Feel free to ask "What is that person doing?" or "How do they work together?" the moment the question pops into your head.
\\Deep Dive into Tuna Culture (Exhibition Room)// After the excitement of the port, we move to a specialized exhibition room. Using maps, illustrations, and videos, I will explain the "hidden stories" you can't see from the surface—such as our sustainable fishing methods, the town's history, and the deep connection between the sea and our community.

5.00Stella is a highly professional guide and also very kind! My husband and I attended a private tour of the tuna auction with her recently. She shared a lot of information with us in a very clear manner. She brought us a handout, used visual aids on her tablet, showed us the auction floor of course (explaining the roles of the different people, what the auction process was like, and what different kinds of fish there were), and brought us to a museum-like area near the auction. She answered our questions as well. Even though it was only about an hour in duration, we came away feeling that we got the most of that hour. Stella was also a super helpful local point person for us. She helped us find local restaurants that accommodated extensive dietary needs. We also had a safety issue the afternoon before… we were hiking in the mountains nearby and heard a siren. Thinking that it might be a tsunami warning, I messaged Stella, and she got back to me right away telling me not to worry, that it was actually a memorial siren. We went on a handful of tours while in Japan, and it is clear that Stella is a top-notch guide. Highly recommended!

5.00Despite last minute booking, Stella accommodated us beautifully, providing a sef-guided audio option at our preferred time, then meeting with us later at our hotel for Q&A. Couldn't have been better in any way!
It’s all about tuna fishing in Nachi Katsuura that we didn’t know, and it helps us understand better♪ It’s too much without a guide.

5.00We learned that Katsuura tuna fishing is an environmentally friendly fishing method, and we answered all the questions that outpoured from it, deepening our understanding ♪ Thanks to meeting Chizu-san, a wonderful person guide♪ and getting local information, the subsequent trip was also fulfilling and made me want to visit Katsuura again. Next time, I would like to participate in Katsuura living experience tour and tuna cutting experience etc. ✨

5.00Stella san met us at our hotel shuttle stop and guided us to the auction area. Her English is excellent and she knows so much about the auction, tuna, tuna commercial fishing and business. It is well worth it - we learned so much that we would not have if we visited the auction on our own. She gave us great recommends for the rest of the day!
Fun and informative tour

5.00We had a fantastic tour with Chizuko-san who showed us the tuna auction, museum, and walked us around a portion of the port. We learned a lot from her about tuna and the local and Japanese fishing industry. Highly recommend if you’re in Katsuura or walking the Kumano Kodō!
Educational and fun
