You'll see the lake's brackish waters, eel and oyster farming operations, surrounding mountains, and Bentenjima island. Mount Fuji is visible on clear days.
Most pleasure boats have covered seating areas with windows, though some may offer open-air deck sections. The enclosed areas provide protection from weather while maintaining views of the lake.
Commentary and announcements are primarily in Japanese. English materials may be limited, so basic Japanese knowledge or a translation app can be helpful for understanding tour information.
Accessibility varies by vessel. Some newer boats accommodate wheelchairs, but older vessels may have stairs or narrow passages. Contact the operator beforehand to confirm accessibility for your specific needs.
