Highlights
Experience Yokohama’s famous Minato Mirai waterfront and cherry blossoms in one unforgettable cruise! We begin near the upper Ooka River and cruise downstream, passing under many picturesque bridges and rows of beautiful cherry blossom trees lining both sides of the river. From the boat, you’ll enjoy a stunning “cherry blossom tunnel” view that you can’t see from the street. As we continue, the river opens into the wide Minato Mirai waterfront and out into Yokohama Bay, where the city’s most iconic skyline comes into view. After the cruise, we’ll take a short walk through Noge on the way to Sakuragicho Station. Noge is a lively food and drink district popular with Yokohama locals, often compared to Golden Gai in Shinjuku. I’ll be happy to introduce some favorite local spots for food and drinks. You will experience the old city of Noge and the new development of Minato Mirai, divided by Negishi Line (JR)

About Yokohama
Yokohama is Japan's second-largest city, a port south of Tokyo with a modern waterfront, the country's biggest Chinatown and hillside foreign quarters.
Yokohama grew from a fishing village into a treaty port after 1859, and its harbour still defines the city. Minato Mirai 21, the waterfront district, has the Landmark Tower, a Ferris wheel and a promenade with views over the bay. The Red Brick Warehouse buildings are now shops and event halls, and Yamashita Park runs along the water beside the Hikawa Maru, a retired ocean liner.
