See Sumida's sakura from the water on this 45-minute evening cruise, which departs from Asakusa at 5.40pm every night between March 22 and April 9. Standard tickets are ¥1,240, but we recommend shelling out ¥2,800 for the ride, a set of appetisers and a drink of your choice to be enjoyed onboard as part of the 'Horoyoi Set'. There are extra cruises from 7pm and 8pm on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays throughout the event period (except for the last weekend).
