Overview

Experience the magic of Tokyo’s cherry blossoms from a traditional Yakatabune boat — a unique blend of scenic views, authentic culture, and Japanese cuisine.

Originating over a thousand years ago during the Heian period, Yakatabune boats were first used by nobles and samurai for elegant moon-viewing gatherings and later embraced by wealthy merchants. Today, these wooden boats retain their classic design and interiors, offering guests a cultural journey back in time as they cruise along Tokyo’s cherry-lined riversides each spring.

Live Shamisen
Enjoy the captivating sound of the Shamisen, one of Japan’s most iconic traditional instruments. With centuries of history, its crisp and expressive tones were the soul of Edo-period banquets and theatre.
and continue to enchant audiences today.

Combine stunning cherry blossom views, live Shamisen music, and authentic Japanese cuisine for an unforgettable springtime experience in Tokyo.
