Full description
This is a 1.5-hour experience from Tokyo, built around Eitai Bridge. It is run by Orange Tour Co., Ltd, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.
Tokyo is the largest city on earth by metropolitan population and it is best seen as a set of neighbourhoods on the Yamanote loop line rather than one place. Asakusa has Senso-ji, the city's oldest temple, and Nakamise's shopping lane; Shibuya has the scramble crossing and Shinjuku the bars of Golden Gai and Omoide Yokocho; Harajuku is Takeshita Street and Meiji Shrine's forest; Akihabara is electronics and anime; Ginza is department stores and sushi counters. Everything runs on time and the last trains are around midnight. Cash still matters in small restaurants, an IC card covers every train and bus, and tipping is not done anywhere.
The price covers Tokyo Bay cruise experience, Tea ceremony and dessert, Japanese sukiyaki meal, Tokyo Tower 150m Observation Deck Ticket and Unlimited soft drinks. It does not cover Transportation between Tokyo Tower and The Pier/Bay, Hotel pickup and drop-off, Tokyo Tower 250m ticket and Extra alcoholic drinks: Asahi beer, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.
Etchūjima Pier. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Orange Tour Co., Ltd before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Traveler Reviews
An absolute must if in Tokyo. We had a great evening on board the house boat. The folk music and singing really made it. And the food was fantastic. Greats views down the river. Great night
It was great. My family really enjoyed it. It would have been nice to know no shoes on boat in the description prior to going so we would have known what shoes/sandals to wear.
Karen and Midori were exceptional it was a great boat ride with fantastic entertainment
I loved the entertainment and food. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I would love to do this again.
I met some great people there with very enjoyable entertainment. Got to see amazing sights and learned new things.
The food was very good. The traditional performance was lively. Guide was very educational. The views of Odaiba and the Rainbow bridge were awesome!
The whole experience exceeded my expectations; food was fresh and delicious (cooked in front of me), the traditional Japanese folklore singer was excellent. Moreover, the service provided was great. The views on the river were so beautiful. Thank you for making this experience unforgettable.
Such an amazing experience, we felt like in the past, i'm pretty sure that the Japan Culture is complete unforgettable. 😍🇯🇵 We woukd like to repeat this experience once again. Grettins from Angie and André from Germany.
It was very good! The meeting point was a little bit hard to reach, so I recommend going earlier! The staff was super nice and helpful and they took a lot of pictures for us! thank you a lot ♡
The boat experience was 10/10, it exceeded all expectations!! Karen our host, Yuzu our singer and Hibiki our musician were absolutely incredible. The food was delicious and we got a real insight into Japanese culture. Would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Tokyo!! Thank you!!
I went on an evening tour without Tokyo Tower and it was a truly fun evening. I was running slightly late due to heavy traffic and the tour operator was very responsive to my messages and made sure I still made it to the boat. I was on my own and joined a table of 4 other people. The sukiyaki dinner was delicious and filling - cooked at the table ourselves. The view of the Bay, Rainbow bridge and fountains was spectacular. The music and show, with some sing along, was fun. Overall, great experience.
3rd time lucky after being cancelled, it was really good the staff were all friendly and the cook yourselves idea was fun, the entertainment was nice. And stopping in Tokyo harbour was a good thing.
