Yanagawa River Boat Tour
A river boat experience cruising through Yanagawa's canals in a traditional donko boat, guided by a boatman's skillful pole handling. Enjoy seasonal charm throughout the year.
Yanagawa River Boat Tour is a 70-minute water-based stroll through approximately 4km of canals in this castle town aboard a donko boat. The boatman skillfully maneuvers the boat with a single pole while sharing stories about Yanagawa's history and highlights. Experience seasonal attractions: spring cherry blossoms and fresh green willows, summer cool breezes across the water, autumn foliage, and winter heated kotatsu boats. After disembarking, sampling Yanagawa's specialty eel steamed in a bamboo steamer is the standard itinerary. Literary walks exploring the birthplace of Kitahara Hakushu and the Ohanagarden are also appealing.
