"Boat Trip Commuting" Boat for Kids
In October this year (2023), "Boat Trip Commuting" started with the backup of Tokyo Metropolitan Government. A cruise of 500 yen for 20 minutes one way from the dock under Nihonbashi to Toyosu.
When you go down the Nihonbashi River and enter the Sumida River, you will see Eitai Bridge, an important cultural property of the country. River City 21 apartments can be seen over the bridge is spectacular.
The journey is faster on the subway, but it is a small trip rather than traveling for 20 minutes while feeling the flow of the river while watching the scenery of Tokyo Bay. You can bring beer and knobs on a large ship named Urban Lunch (bicycles and wheelchairs are OK)
Currently, it is operated by 11 ships, but this time it was a small boat called a limousine boat with a capacity of 11 people, so there was no beer. At this time, the operation time of "boat trip commuting" is close to high tide, so it seems that your head will hit the bridge at Urban Lunch. Particularly note that Minato Bridge is at the last minute.
After passing the sailing ship at Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology, Meiji Maru, and Koba's wood storage yard, you will find the Toyosu dock.
In front of you is LaLaport, a large shopping mall with 62,000m2. KidZania is famous, isn't it? For example, I leave Nihonbashi at 4:25, enjoy a few hours in Toyosu and return by boat. Kids, there is no doubt.
The operating days as of November 2023 are Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, 4:00 pm from Toyosu and 4:25 pm from Nihonbashi. After that, it's about one flight an hour. There is also a temporary suspension due to the weather. Please confirm and make a reservation on the Internet (if there is space, you can purchase it at the boat landing).
