Geibikei Gorge River Boat Ride Experience in Iwate

Buying boat tickets through the app is very easy, and the price is slightly cheaper than at the counter. The place is very beautiful. I went during the fall foliage season. There are ducks, and you can feed them too. It's amazing that the boatman can row with up to 50 people on board. On the way back, they even sang songs live for us. I highly recommend it.

great tour! very relaxing and worth if u want to look at nature! our tour guide also sang for us as part of the tour and it was pretty mesmerising. highly recommended! beautiful pictures speak for themselves.

Very unique and quaint experience where you get to eat on the boat ride! The boat ride was more spacious than I expected, and not wonky at all. I could eat your bento and sukiyaki in peace as the boat slowly strolled through the gorges. The guide would introduce the different views as you go along the streams. In the middle, there would be a short 20 minute break where you get off the boat and walk to see the lion's nose and the wishing hole. Overall, it was a really nice and quaint experience. Would really recommend to get it with the bento and sukiyaki set to make it a unique and special one!

My mother was pleased with the trip. The staff were friendly and welcoming, although they could speak a little English but were willing to give advice. The food provided was very delicious.

Very easy to redeem. It is 100 yen cheaper than booking the ticket onsite. There are multiple departures for the time slots that match the train arrival time.

it was beautiful! Was hoping for snow, but probably too late for that. the food was filling and very nice, the poleman where very helpful and nice day trip. There is a lot of travel to get to Geibikei Gorge but the trains are easy and one was even Pokemon themed.

We had a wonderful time cruising down the Geibikei Gorge with all the little ducks swimming next to our boat. We're also given some time to explore on land before heading back, with entertaining us with songs.

better than expected boat ride in deep winter! Boats are fully sheltered so not cold, but duck feed to feed the hungry ducks in the river. the quiet snowy scene made for a very relaxing tour. boatman (lady in our case) will explain highlights with pamphlet. get off for a 20min walk and try yr luck throwing auspicious disks into a hole in rock wall. our boat lady sang the geibi song upon return ride. she was very good! check train timing to and from Ichinoseki. not frequent so plan ahead!

When autumn turns to winter, the cruise ship will be equipped with a windproof cover to keep warm, and we will buy some feed to feed the ducklings. The ducklings want to eat and paddle hard, which is very cute! The tour guide on the boat introduces carefully and speaks various languages. He is very friendly. When you arrive, you can buy an engraved log (like a chess piece) and throw it into the longan, and your wish will come true! Ni=lion, one part of the scenery looks like a lion’s nose, so it’s called Nibi Creek. It’s one of the top 100 scenic spots and worth a visit~

The number one attraction in this area. A must visit. I do think that the singing might vary depending on the boat personal.
