Osaka Round Kayak tour in Dotonbori

Overview

Rediscover Osaka from a unique and sustainable perspective. Kayaking is one of humanity's oldest forms of travel; an experience powered only by you. This makes it the ultimate eco-tour, with nearly zero impact on the environment.

Join us on a journey through the "Urban Jungle" of Nakanoshima Island. As you glide across the water, you'll paddle past gleaming skyscrapers and iconic cityscapes, seeing the heart of Osaka from a tranquil viewpoint. This is a unique opportunity to enjoy the fusion of city bustle and natural serenity.

The Dotonbori tour takes you through the urban jungle of Nakanoshima, through Dotonbori, Osaka's busiest shopping district beyond the water gates, and around Osaka's waterways, covering a total distance of 16 km and taking 4.5 hours.
The feeling of racing freely through the middle of Dotonbori, Osaka's most bustling shopping district, is an experience that can only be had by kayaking.
