最上川三難所舟くだり乗船場

Nice boat ride on the Mogami River. No English support, however--you either need to know Japanese or have a translator. (Though it is enjoyable to simply gaze at the scenery while you float down the river.) Commemorative photo was taken of our group and available for ¥1000 afterwards, which was great.

Great local experience

Awesome!!!

Unfortunately, due to the low water level of the river, the boat ride was canceled. Instead, he guided me around the Mogami River by bus, and we had a really fun time. I would like to visit again when the river level rises.

I called after 9am on Saturday morning and was able to reserve the 10am boat. To be honest, I didn't have high expectations, but the boatman's speech was interesting and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The boat trip takes about 1 hour from the boarding point to the disembarkation point, and the return trip is only about 10 minutes, although a bus will take you back to the departure point. It reminds me of the hardships of the days when there were no engines. The schedule seems to change frequently, so we recommend calling to confirm.
