Nice little trip on a boat - not a sightseeing cruise

We went on this cruise as it was part of our Have Fun in Kansai pass, which we got for free when booking Universal Studios tickets from Klook. I’m glad it was free because the sightseeing cruise was the least informative one I’ve ever done. It’s more like a nice, little trip down the river to see the area from the water instead. I think we were only told 2 facts. Most of the guide’s interaction involved getting us to shout hello to passing boats. Go in the cruise if it’s free (included in a pass) but definitely don’t pay for it.

Nice tour, but limited information

The tour itself was good and staff was kind, however there were limited information in English regarding the pick up point, slot reservation and places passed by with the boat.

Fun!

Fun tour. Well worth taking 20 mins out of your day to do this. Views from the river were great. Guides engaging and lots of great photo opportunities

This was the best way to...

This was the best way to kick off our time in Osaka. I really enjoyed seeing the city from the boat at night. I also really liked that we could go at anytime because we got to Osaka later than planned.

Fun short boat ride

This was a fun short river boat ride in Osaka for the family. This was an opportunity to look at Osaka in a different viewpoint and to take good pictures of the billboards and landmarks.

Cruise down Dotombori River at night is a must!!

We needed to swap ticket from Fri night to Sat night & that was accommodated very well. Cruise was great, short about 20-30 mins but saw all the sights along Dontonbori river. Host was good, blankets provided as was a bit chilly. Able to purchase a couple of drinks for the trip. Recommend this activity 🙌

Worth the ride.

It was lovely experience, definitely worth it. Only thing it was rushed and the lady was a bit rude to me even though I was showing her my ticket she just shunned me aside, luckily the other guy helped and told her it's fine he saw my ticket and then she allowed me on the boat.

Not bad

Look it’s a 10 mins ride, plenty of opportunities to take photo. Host is amazing and funny. The boat has a cover on top which hinders from taking photo video whilst you’re sitting inside the boat. You can’t stand.if you’re stuck in the middle aisle you just have to wait for the host to tell you to come up when he stops to take photos. Should be cheaper for this sort of thing.

Probably best to just walk along the river bank.

The crew and staff put a lot of effort in to their job but at the end of the day it's just a 6 or 7 minutes ride up the river a 5 minute stop and back to the drop off point - just walk it.
