Sumida Park cruises

One of the best experiences of our trip here in Tokyo. Very nice, friendly and attentive staffs. Very delightful, good food, clean and on time. It’s all worth it!!! Recommended!!! 5 star for you guys! Keep it up! God bless everyone! Merry Christmas!!!👋🥰🙏

The time is a little too short if you want to cook food, look outside, take pictures, and chat. However, because of the excellent tour guide Sheila, the tour still gets 5 stars.

A massive thank you to Ashley. It was so refreshing to have someone who was upbeat and fun. We aren’t big eaters so could have shared a pot of food between us. I felt rude wasting so much beautiful food. The entertainment was good with explanations given of the instruments being used and the songs sung. We were lucky enough to still have some cherry blossoms that had not totally fallen, stopping in front of the Tokyo Skytree for a photo. A pleasant evening.

We used this experience in January (Winter) when the water was low and were blown away by our incredible hosts on the boat. They were super knowledgeable about the local area as they shared different significant locations and comings and going of local wildlife (including Mario and Elephants). Safety was their #1 priority with ensuring you enjoy your trip a very close #2 with their great humour making the 2 hours go by super fast. Highly recommend this for your trip! Aim for spring for Sakura that line the river or Autumn for the foliage as maple and cypress line the river too. Don't forget to use the splash guard or invest in a poncho sold at the cruise building alongside souvenirs of the Hozugawa River Cruise experience.

The meet up point is a bit misleading. It stated to meet opposite a restaurant but did not mention the front or back entrance of that restaurant. I waited 20mins at the wrong entrance and decided to walk around to check. Managed to find the place eventually. Could be improved by inserting photos for meetup point. The service staff was very friendly and gave us each a blanket as it was quite cold. The overall cruise was 20plus minutes along the dotonburi river, to and fro once. Price is a bit on the high side. But we got the best seat, the front seats, as the whole boat was only us (5 pax). All the photos we can take were unobstructed. There was no vocal guide as we know exactly what we want. No time was wasted so maximum photo shots.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A fun and relaxing way to see Osaka at night! The Dotonbori Cruise was lively, with amazing views of the Glico sign and the city lights reflecting on the water. The staff made the experience entertaining and easy to follow, even without knowing Japanese. A great short activity to add after dinner or shopping in Dotonbori — highly recommend! 🚤✨

what an absolutely wonderful experience! From the moment we got near the pier and the constant staff to guide us in the right direction, to the amazing service on the boat, the delicious food (and being taught how to cook it) and the lovely talented musician and singer, the whole experience was a night to remember. Thankyou to everyone involved, the service, the views, the gifts, everything was just beyond amazing and I fully recommend this cruise to everyone!!!

It’s my husband and I’s first time and Japan and to kick start our trip we booked this river cruise! It was absolutely amazing and Lulu, our guide and host was wonderful. The beef sukiyaki we had for dinner was delicious. Everyone on the boat was gracious and kind and the experience was unforgettable. We highly recommend!
