Traditional Yakatabune River Cruise with Lunch or Dinner in Tokyo

4.80· 97 reviews

What to expect

Slowly float down the Sumida River as you pass through Tokyo. See Tokyo Tower, Rainbow Bridge and the colorful night views of Odaiba while drinking and enjoying a Japanese lunch or dinner.

Pamper yourself with a day of delightful cuisine and romantic views from this yakatabune. These 'pleasure boats' have been operating since the Edo Period, when the feudal lords and wealthy merchants would throw parties or host cherry blossom viewings or poetry gatherings on them. Today the boats are popular for romantic cruises and celebrations. Join the brightly colored boats as they congregate in Tokyo Bay and raise a toast to the city skyline with your choice of beverage.

The food was much better than I had imagined, so I was very pleased. The drinks were also all-you-can-drink, and I would like to recommend it to my friends.料理が想像してたものより美味しかったのでとても良かったっです。飲み物も飲み放題で、友達にもすすめたいと思います。

Boat is very comfortable and really cute- half of our group was 6'/183 cm or taller. Cruise itself showed a lot of Tokyo, and the views are unparalleled. Cruise itself with the views are a great value, but the food takes it way over the top. We ordered the Wakayima dinner plan- what a feast! Not only was the food really good (esp the tempura), but they were not skimpy with the portions. We had big people, and we were all full! Plus, all you can drink sake and beers made this trip a total steal.

I always judge my trips, food, and activities with one simple question- would I go back? The answer is a resounding YES! Bring a group- it's a blast!

I thought the event might be canceled due to the approaching typhoon, but the weather held up, and we were able to enjoy it as planned.

The staff were very pleasant, and I had a great time. The food was delicious, especially the sashimi and tempura, which left a strong impression on me.

The night view was also wonderful, and I had a fun time. I would like to use this service again.台風が接近していたため中止になるかと思いましたが、天気も何とかもってくれて、予定どおり楽しむことができました。

従業員の皆さんもとても感じが良く、気持ちよく過ごせました。お料理も美味しく、特にお刺身と天ぷらが印象に残っています。

夜景も素晴らしく、楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。また利用したいと思います。

What should I do for sightseeing in Tokyo? I found this plan while I was unsure. I thought 13,000 yen for a two-and-a-half-hour cruise with dinner and unlimited drinks was reasonable. Since it was mid-June, it was bright when we set sail, and we were able to see the sunset near Odaiba at the turnaround point, along with the illuminated Rainbow Bridge. As we headed north, we also had a beautiful view of the lit-up Tokyo Skytree. The weather was calm that day, so there was no rocking, and the food… What should I do for sightseeing in Tokyo?

The drinks were brought to us right after we ordered, and the service was excellent. 東京観光どうしよう？って迷った中で見つけたこのプラン。2時間半のクルーズに夕食、飲み放題ドリンクも付いて13000円はリーズナブルだと思いました。6月中旬だったので、出航時は明るく、折り返し地点のお台場付近で日が沈み、レインボーブリッジのライトアップも見ることが出来ました。北上して、ライトアップしたスカイツリーもキレイに見えました。天候も穏やかな日だったので揺れもなく、料理も天ぷらが１つずつ運んで来てくれたり、飲み物もオーダーしたらすぐに持って来て下さって、接客もよかったです。

I made a reservation for a lunch course for seven people to celebrate my parents' 80th birthday. All the dishes were delicious, and the freshly fried tempura was the best! The views of the Sumida River were fantastic, and the explanations on the boat were enjoyable too. We were able to dock in time for the fountain show in Odaiba, and we took lots of photos.

お料理全て美味しく、揚げたての天ぷらも最高でした!
隅田川の見どころ満載で、船内の説明も楽しかったです♪
お台場の噴水ショーに合わせて、停泊してくれ写真も沢山撮れました。
デザートには花火を添えてくれ、バースデーのサービスまでして頂き大喜びの両親でした。
また利用したいです！ありがとうございました。

Tempura is the best!

The food was even more delicious than I expected. The tempura, in particular, was freshly fried, and the shrimp, fish, and vegetables were all big-sized. They quickly accommodated our request for all-you-can-drink options, which was fantastic. There was also a photo time in between, and I was able to take plenty of pictures from the deck. I really felt like I was traveling in a foreign country, and I'm so glad I participated.お料理は期待以上に美味しかったです。特に天ぷらは揚げたて、しかもエビも魚も野菜もビッグサイズ。飲み放題の追加もすぐに対応して頂けて、最高でした。途中で写真タイムもあり、デッキ上からゆっくりたくさん写真も撮れました。異国に旅行にきている気分で、参加して本当によかったです。

My girlfriend. Happy Birthday!!

It was a truly once-in-a-lifetime memorable trip. We stopped the boat at the shooting spots about twice, and it was amazing to have around 10 to 15 minutes to take photos after going up to the upper deck! There were various foreigners, and even though we couldn't understand each other's languages, taking photos together somehow felt heartwarming, and I sensed world peace. As expected of Japan.

At the end, everyone sang the happy birthday song to my girlfriend with a surprise cake! It was just the best. The foreigner behind us saw the five candles and asked, "Five years??" (laughs). The idea of being five years old was also a funny episode!

To that person, I said happy birthday again at the very end, and he encouraged me by patting my shoulder, which moved me towards world peace. Thank you for this wonderful time filled with unforgettable memories. I'm so glad to have encountered this yakatabune tour, which may only happen once in a lifetime. Everyone should definitely ride a yakatabune! とても一生に一度の思い出に残る旅。
2回くらい撮影スポットで船停止し、
上のデッキへ昇り、10分〜15分くらい撮影できる時間は最高ですね！
様々な外人さんがいて、お互い言葉がわからないですが、写真を撮りあいしたのも、なぜかほっこり、世界平和を感じました。
さすがJapan。
最後にsurprisecakeでみんなから彼女へ
大合唱でhappy birthday song！！
もう最高です。
後ろの外人さんから、ろうそく5本みて
five year？？笑笑
5歳？ってのも、いい面白いエピソードです！
そんな彼に最後の最後にもhappy birthday！！と改めてgoodポーズと
僕にも肩… とても一生に一度の思い出に残る旅。

Vraiment super croisière

La nourriture était excellente, on a pu goûter à plein de spécialités locales; sashimi, crevettes et poisson en tempura....L'anguille était hyper bonne. Les desserts (mochi) délicieux et entraient quand même malgré le fait que nous étions vraiment repues. Le parcours de nuit était parfait. Allez-y sans hésiter.

I participated in the "70th Birthday Tour" with five friends. While enjoying the wonderful night view, we were served a variety of dishes including a boat platter of crab and sashimi, and freshly fried tempura, which made us very satisfied. The all-you-can-drink alcohol flowed freely, and we had a fantastic night.「古希ツアー」で仲間５人で参加しました。素晴らしい夜景を見ながら、料理もカニや刺身の舟盛り、揚げたての熱々天ぷらを順番にお皿に置いてもらえて、大満足でした。飲み放題のお酒もすすみ、ステキな夜を満喫できました。
