Activities
The Tokyo Water Taxi, also known as the Tokyo Water Bus, is a network of different ferries that operate in the city of Tokyo and serve different routes on the Sumida River as far as Tokyo Bay.
Asakusa: This is where most of the lines start. The Asakusa-Odaiba line begins in Asakusa and goes from there directly to Odaiba Seaside Park (approx. 60 minutes, 1,720 ¥). The Sumida River Line also starts in Asaksua and goes to Hamarikyu Park (approx. 35 minutes, 1,040 ¥) or to Hinode (approx. 40 minutes, 860 ¥), admission to the park is included in the ticket price. Both lines run around 8 to 10 times a day, depending on the type of ferry, while the connection to Toyosu usually only runs twice a day (around 35 minutes, 1,200 ¥). The Mizube Cruising Line also starts in Asakusa and runs on various courses along the Sumida River via Takeshiba and Odaiba Seaside Park in Tokyo Bay to Kasai Rinkai Park.
Hamarikyu Park: The pier is located in the paid part of the park and you can buy tickets for the ferry to Hinode (approx. 5 min, 210 ¥) or to Asakusa (approx. 60 min, 740 ¥) there. If you get off at Hamarikyu Park, entry to the park is already included in the ferry ticket.
Hinode: This is where the Odaiba line starts, which goes directly to the Odaiba Seaside Park (approx. 20 minutes, 520 ¥). There are also ferries from here, which go to the two stations on Odaiba, Palette Town (approx. 25 minutes, 460 ¥) and Tokyo Big Site (approx. 35 minutes, 460 ¥), but they run less frequently.
Odaiba Seaside Park: From here ferries go to Hinode, via Toyosu back to Asakusa or on to Kasai Rinkai Park.
The prices can change depending on the type of ferry, for example there are surcharges for the two panorama ferries Himiko and Hotaluna. Tickets can be bought on site at the respective pier or purchased online in advance.
