From the Okawa River to the Dojima River at dusk.
In the past, people in Osaka would gather by the river in the summer and enjoy the cool breeze while rocking in boats.
The light of lanterns, the night breeze blowing across the bridge, the city lights reflected on the water's surface—
This summer-only cruise recreates the "evening relaxation culture" that thrives in Osaka, the "City of Water," in a modern setting.
Onboard, a rakugo storyteller will guide you through the history and charms of Osaka.
Escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy a special evening with a gentle river breeze.
