Product Info
- Experience the tradition of Japanese boats! Learn about the history, shipbuilding, and navigation techniques from the boatman. The Tenryu River boat tour has a long history, evolving into the current Tenryu River Traditional Boat tour. We will share these traditions in simple terms. Learn about rare shipbuilding techniques, such as the rhythmic hammering of special 'wa-kugi' (Japanese nails), which is now rare across the country. You can even try your hand at rowing using a model boat! Traditional boats get a winter makeover with an engine! Enjoy the river's unique winter scenery and engine-powered navigation. The river is not just for going downstream. Travel upstream against the current and float on the rapids. Experience the Tenryu River in winter like never before.
