What you can expect

Embark on a magical journey through Tokyo Bay aboard a traditional yakatabune houseboat with a rich history dating back to the Heian period (794–1185). During the Edo period (1603–1868), yakatabune became a popular form of entertainment enjoyed by nobles and merchants.

Step aboard this traditional Japanese boat and enjoy breathtaking waterfront views as you cruise along Tokyo Bay. This unique experience perfectly combines Japanese cultural heritage with stunning scenery. Departing from the pier, the historic vessel sails along the beautiful coastline, passing by the iconic Rainbow Bridge before returning to the boarding pier.

During the cruise, enjoy a live shamisen performance and immerse yourself in the charm of Japanese traditional culture. Unlimited soft drinks are served throughout the journey, creating a relaxing and comfortable experience. While cruising inside the cabin, you can admire the spectacular waterfront views along the way.

After the cruise, the boat will return to the original boarding pier.
