Experience Details

Board an elegant yakatabune (traditional Japanese ‘pleasure boat’) for a private cruise and dining experience in Tokyo! Marvel at stunning views of Tokyo Bay, Odaiba, and Rainbow Bridge, dine on a luxurious kaiseki meal prepared right in front of you by skilled chefs, and enjoy a Japanese pastime from a bygone era.


The history of yakatabune boats in Japan dates back to the Edo period (early 17th to mid-19th century). During this time, Tokyo, then known as Edo, was a bustling and prosperous city that relied heavily on its waterways for transportation and trade. Yakatabune, which translates to "roofed boat" in Japanese, were originally designed for practical purposes, primarily as cargo vessels. Over time, these boats evolved to cater to the growing demand for entertainment and leisure; transforming into floating teahouses and dining establishments, becoming popular venues for social gatherings and celebrations among the city's elite.


Aboard your own private yakatabune, discover a world of luxury and sophistication while dining at the elegant counter seating (designed to accommodate 2 to 10 guests). Accomplished chefs, with experience gained at renowned hotels, will showcase their culinary artistry right before your eyes. They meticulously craft each dish using the finest seasonal ingredients, striving for both aesthetic beauty and exceptional taste. The result is an unforgettable omakase kaiseki course meal that will engage all your senses.


While savoring this mouthwatering meal, enjoy breathtaking night views of Odaiba, Rainbow Bridge, and Tokyo Skytree from the yakatabune.
