A tool conveying system (10) includes a machine tool (400), a tool storage portion (250) that stores a plurality of tool holders, a work station (200), a conveying device (300) that conveys a designated tool holder to a designated conveying destination, and a control portion (50) that controls the tool conveying system (10). The control portion (50) performs processing of determining a tool holder that holds a tool in an unusable state from among the tool holders located in the machine tool (400) based on a situation in which a recovery instruction of a tool holder is received, controlling the conveying device (300) to convey the tool holder out of the machine tool (400) in preference to other tool holders located in the machine tool (400), and controlling the conveying device (300) to convey the tool holder conveyed out to the tool storage portion (250) or the work station (200).
