💡 Tips for Visitors

The ferry is cash-only and very affordable (around 200 yen per person). Best visited during spring for cherry blossoms or autumn for colorful foliage along the riverbanks. Operating hours are limited and may be suspended during bad weather, so check locally before visiting. Little to no English signage, but the process is straightforward—simply board and pay the ferryman.
