Cruises along the Dotonbori, the legendary canal that runs right through the heart of Osaka, are
actually an all-year round occurrence. However, they are probably best enjoyed in the summer evenings, as the cool, gentle breeze emanating from the water takes the edge of the stifling daytime summer heat. There are a variety of cruising options available depending on what type of entertainment you’re after.
Party boats, reminiscent of the “booze cruises” that are popular in certain tourist venues in southern Europe and the U.S., offer dance music, drinks and a nightclub-type atmosphere.
If you prefer something a little more sedate, but still musical, then how about a boat with its own private brass band!
Of course, if you want to keep it simple, then regular tour boats that simply give you a 30-40 minute “no frills” ride along the river are also available.
