Cherry Blossom Viewing from a Boat: Tour in Yokohama Minato Mirai

5.0(2)Rated 5.0 out of 5 from 2 reviews1 h 30 minBy Mari's Local Gems
Night view of the cherry blossoms are great. There will be a lot of food booths along the river.

About this activity

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)
