💡 Tips for Visitors

River cruise boats operate regularly from Asakusa Pier with English audio guides available; consider purchasing tickets in advance during peak seasons. The best times to visit are during cherry blossom season (late March to early April) or for the summer fireworks festival (late July). Most ticket booths accept credit cards, but some smaller vendors near the riverside are cash-only.
