(Translated by Google) The advantage of this cruise is that there are many souvenir shops and transportation is remarkably good. However, an outboard motor ship made of FRP (plastic) seems to be expensive to ride a few kilometers on a river like the Dobu River where the domestic wastewater flows. Here Sawara is a tourist destination, so it can't be helped. If possible, go to the twelve bridges across the Tone River and go around the Ayame Suigo with a wooden rowing / push bar. Among the so-called sightseeing boats, you can taste the most primitive boats and a better atmosphere there. (Original) ここの船巡りの利点は、お土産物屋さんが多く、交通の便が著しく良いところだ。しかしFRP（プラスチック）製の船外機船で、生活排水が流れるどぶ川のような川を数km乗るのには料金が高い気がする。ここ佐原は作られた観光地だから致し方ない。 可能であれば、利根川を挟んで対岸の十二橋まで行って、木製の手漕ぎ・押し棒で進む船で水郷あやめ巡りをしてほしい。いわゆる観光船の中でも、最も原始的な船と、もっと良い風情が、あちらでは味わえる。

(Translated by Google) Have you enjoyed seeing the built and maintained cityscape in these years? I often drop money like this (Original) この何年かで、建てられ整備された街並みを見て楽しいのかね(笑) こんなもんによく金を落としてくもんだ

Very nice boat ride and tour along the river. Tour consisted of about 15 minutes up the river and back to the starting point. Sawara is a very historical town and the boat tour was a good way to see the older buildings and hear of the history. The tour guide was very sweet older lady who talked about how much she loved her job. It was worth the 1,300 Yen.

(Translated by Google) I tried to ride it even if I was told that it was okay for one person, but it was the worst because I was riding with a family I did not know. I'm talking about history, but it's not a fun atmosphere because I feel like I have to make a hammer hit, and I don't know anyone who wanted to take a photo but didn't know it. To be honest, I don't want to ride anymore. (Original) おひとり様でも大丈夫と言われて乗ってみたが、知らない家族と一緒に乗らされて最悪だった。歴史の話をされるけど無理に相槌打たないといけないって感じで楽しいとかの雰囲気じゃないし、写真を撮りたかったが知らない人が映るわで、払った金が無駄になった気分。正直もう乗りたくない。

Very pleasant to ride a traditional mini boat while listening the history of Edo Sawara.

Yes Old village at the border of China préfecture with a canal. Try the boat tour to get a full sense of the city. Many restaurants are available along the canal offering traditional Japanese food. Visit the small street around and don't miss the old temple.

Ticket price is 600 yen one way for adults. It is a nice boat ride going under bridges and railway tracks. Amazing views.

there was no boat tour when we went on Monday. very few tourists around, which was nice in a different way. the water was shallow in the canal. i wonder how the boats could pass through.

It was raining on the day I visited, but it added new experience to float in the boat through the river with sprinkling water, and it soothing sounds (white noise). You can visit many stores with traditional facets around.

(Translated by Google) It wasn't running without water. Just take a walk along the river Enjoying the old townscape It was fun as it was (Original) 水がなくて運行していませんでした。 ただ川沿いを散歩して 昔の町並みを楽しむのは それなりに楽しかったです

(Translated by Google) On August 10th, I went to Sawara, a town in Katori City in northeastern Chiba. It is the town where Ino Tadataka lived, who walked around Japan and completed the map of Japan. The Ono River coast, which runs through Sawara, was designated as an important traditional buildings preservation district for the first time in the Kanto region. If you take a sightseeing boat, you can take a walk on the water in the cityscape full of Edo atmosphere, which is different from walking. It takes about 30 minutes and operates every 30 minutes from 10:00 in the morning, depending on the season. The boarding fee is 1300 yen for adults and 700 yen for children. If you park at a nearby parking lot, you will receive a discount ticket for a sightseeing boat and a 200 yen discount. At the Ino Tadataka Memorial Hall, we surveyed Japan after the age of 50 and made a walking map. We follow the life of Ino Tadataka in chronological order and introduce the surveying process and Ino map. Admission is 500 yen for adults and closed on Mondays (Original) 8月10日、千葉北東部の香取市にある町、佐原に行ってきました。 日本を歩いてまわり日本地図を完成させた、あの伊能忠敬が住んでいた町とのことです。 佐原を縦断する小野川沿岸は、関東で初めて重要伝統的建造物群保存地区に指定されたところ。 観光遊覧船に乗ると、徒歩とはまた違った江戸情緒いっぱいの街並みを水上散歩できます。 所要時間は約30分で運行時間は季節により異なりますが朝１０：００から３０分おきに運航しています。乗船料金は大人１３００円、子供７００円です。 近くの駐車場に止めると観光遊覧船の割引券をくれ２００円割り引いてくれます。 伊能忠敬記念館では50歳を過ぎてから日本を測量して歩き地図を作った、伊能忠敬の人生を年代順に追い、測量の行程や伊能図を紹介しています。入館料は大人500円、月曜日は休館です

(Translated by Google) I thought to catch with their parents, but Google's business hours had finished business because it was past the 15 o'clock for the summer conventions. Since the opening hours are different depending on the season, please be careful. It is not for you understand, such as posting it ends what are you doing large time display and the landing. It was the second time of the visit did not ride as well this time. (Original) 親と一緒に乗ろうと思いましたが、グーグルの営業時間が夏表記のため１５時を過ぎていた為営業がおわっていました。 季節によって営業時間が違うので、きをつけてください。乗り場に大きく時間表示ややっているのか終わっているのかわかるような掲示はありません。二回目の来訪でしたが今回も乗れませんでした。

Good place to visit for historic Japanese events.. It takes you back to the 1800s history

its really like a time slip to Edo era with all its old buildings and houses, just mins walk from Sawara station there are restaurants and museums too

(Translated by Google) Normally, the line of sight changes and it is good, but the water level is low and it is hard to see, which is a negative factor even during the revetment work. It's a pity that the woman's cross-legged maneuvering did not give a good impression. (Original) 通常目線が変わり良いものですがぁ～水位が低く見に辛く、護岸工事中もマイナス要因です。女性が足を組んでの操船も印象が良くなかった残念。

This place is also called "Little Edo of Hokuso". It has prospered as a water town since ancient times, and even today there are many townscapes that retain their vestiges, such as wooden and storehouse-style townhouses, earthen storehouses, and Western-style architecture.

The ticket was for ¥1300, Its a 15-20 minute boat ride. It's okay, not that great, but there's not much to do at Sawara

(Translated by Google) The story of the boatman was interesting. (Original) 船頭さんの話が面白かった。

Well preserved cultural and historical town with excellent tours. You must visit in summer when the parade of floats comes out. You can catch a tour bus for this place at terminal 2 of Narita Airport.

(Translated by Google) Buildings and rivers that have a history of the times, known as Koedo / Small Kyoto, and the depths of the river. Boat tours have changed according to the season, and the boat tour was still held at around 15:30 on this day. Sorry (> <.) I want to revenge in the next warm season 暖 か い ️😀 (Original) 小江戸・小京都と言われる位🌟時代歴史が感じられる建物と川の🌟奥ゆかしさ🌟素晴らしい景色を見渡しながら🌟川のせせらぎに耳を傾け🌟探索しました٩꒰｡•◡•｡꒱۶ 舟めぐりは季節に寄って時間帯が変わりしまして、この日15:30頃まだ舟めぐり開催されていたのですが、16:00前乗ろうと思いまして、急いで行ったのですが終わっていて残念（＞＜。）次回暖かい時期にリベンジしたいと思います💕🙇‍♀️😀

(Translated by Google) Very taste of the Edo period (Original) 很有江戶時代的味道

(Translated by Google) People who explain are better to study a little more and should explain in more detail to tourists. (Original) 説明する人はもう少し勉強した方がいい、観光客にはもっと詳しく説明すべきだ。

(Translated by Google) Thank you Uncle who taught me carefully. I'm surprised that the bridge is a canal. ️ (Original) 丁寧に教えてくださったおじ様ありがとう。橋が、水路になっていること、びっくりです‼️

Very nice view, ticket was around 8.5USD on Klook. The tour is completely in Japanese though, just a note:)

(Translated by Google) It was fun. (Original) たのしかったです。

(Translated by Google) It seems to be one of the three major Edo regions in the Kanto region. The atmosphere of the city is good. It seems that it has been used for movie locations since ancient times. Also, it would have been nice to ask the people in the city that there is a kaiseki restaurant called Souma in the back alley. We were quite satisfied with the price of 5,500 yen. It was a good memory on the 33rd anniversary of my marriage. Thanks ~~ (Original) 関東の3大小江戸の1つらしい。街の風情が良い。昔から映画のロケにも使われていたらしい。また、路地を1つ奥に入ったところに、そう馬と云う懐石料理屋さんがある事を街の人に聞いていったら良かった。二人で￥5,500で結構満足出来た。結婚33回目の記念日にはいい思い出になった。感謝〜〜

feel the old of japan, edo architecture! Maybe little bit similar as kyoto? So cool pla e! At winter, the kotatsu table to make our body warm is set on the boat!

Relaxing place👍👍👍👍

If you are a frequent traveler to Japan andIf happen to have time to go out of Narita airport during a transit, I truly recommend this place to enjoy an old and traditional Japanese village.

Nice for killing time

Highlight of Sawara. Don’t miss it. There’s no english explanation of the boat tour. Look for tiny clock tower, the boat pier is there. The ticket counter is inside an old house. Ticket price ¥1,300/pax. Everything is in Japanese. Just enjoy the ride.

One trip takes about 30mins. The guide will give history facts during the ride, and you can catch a swan idling along the banks (seems like it made his home there).

(Translated by Google) Small Edo style, suitable for walking (Original) 小江户风情 适合散步

(Translated by Google) The uncle of the captain was kind and gave me food for swans, and he waited for the train on the Narita line to come, and the streets of Sawara were very beautiful. (Original) 船頭のおじさんが親切で白鳥の餌をくれたり、成田線の電車が来るのを待っててくれたり、佐原の町並みもすごくキレイでした。

(Translated by Google) For a short time, I was relieved by the tasteful local guide. I am also satisfied with the warmth of the kotatsu boat. (Original) 短い時間ながら、味のある地元の方のガイドにホッコリしました。こたつ舟の暖かさにも満足です。

(Translated by Google) The fathers who steer the ship were all friendly people and had a good time! ️ (Original) 船の操縦をする、お父さん達も、気さくな人たちばかりで、楽しい時間を過ごしました‼️

(Translated by Google) It will be a holiday if I go on the first Saturday of December. Sorry. But maybe I couldn't get on because the river was dirty. (Original) 12月の最初の土曜日に行ったら休みとのこと。残念。 でも川が汚かったので乗れなくてよかったかも。

(Translated by Google) A place to visit a nearby camping site after an overnight stay. The parking fee is 500 yen, but the ticket is reduced by 500 yen. 200 yen for adults and 100 yen for children. The ship is a motorboat, and it explains about it by going around the canal for 30 minutes round trip at a very slow speed. I got on because my child wanted to take a boat, but honestly, there was nothing to see and nothing to enjoy except the act of boating. Because it is the hometown of a person like Kim Jong-ho in Japan, there were some people, and there were not many people trying to get on a boat, but it was there. Light in terms of cost performance. (Original) 근처 캠핑장에서 일박 후 관광거리를 찾아서 온 곳. 주차비가 오백엔인데 배표를 오백엔 깎아줌. 어른 200엔 아이 100엔씩. 배는 모터보트인데 아주 느린 속도로 왕복 삼십분 동안 운하를 한바퀴 돌며 설명을 해줌. 아이가 배를 타고 싶어해서 탔는데, 솔직히 볼 거도 없고 배타는 행위 말고는 아무 즐길 거리가 없음. 일본의 김정호 같은 분의 고향이라 그런지 사람은 더러 았고, 배를 타려는 사람도 많지는 않지만 꾸준히 있긴 했음. 가성비 측면에서 비추.

(Translated by Google) It's far from social distance. The explanation is a little hard to hear due to the sound of the engine of the ship. If you try to come here with a car navigation system, you will be guided along the river because you do not know the parking lot, but it is not along the river, so it is better to park at the parking lot along the road. You can get a discount ticket for the boat at the parking lot sold by Gerrard, so that is recommended. (Original) ソーシャルディスタンスには程遠いです。説明は船のエンジン音でちょっと聞こえずらい。カーナビでここに来ようとすると、駐車場が分からなくて、川沿いに案内されますが、川沿いには無いので、道路沿いの駐車場に停めるのが良いです。ジェラードの売っている駐車場で舟の割引券が貰えるので、そこがオススメです。

(Translated by Google) I used it because I was on a JR day tour. It was a leisurely cruise, and the story of the boatman was not a guide on the script, but of course there was a commentary on tourist attractions, but topics such as today's life and the state of the boatman's childhood were also interwoven. It was very interesting. It was good to see the river from a different point of view than walking. (Original) JRの日帰りツアーの中に入ってたので、利用しました。 のんびりとした船旅で、船頭さんのお話が、台本通りのガイドじゃなく、もちろん観光名所の解説もありましたが、今日の生活や船頭さんの子供の頃の様子などのトピックも織り交ぜられてて、非常に興味深かったです。 歩いて見るのと違う視点で見る川も良かったです。

(Translated by Google) It is a motor ship. It doesn't match the surrounding atmosphere. (Original) モーター船です。周囲の雰囲気と合わない。

(Translated by Google) It makes you feel nostalgic (Original) 懐かしい気分にされられますね

(Translated by Google) Many shops are closed on weekdays, We recommend visiting on Saturdays and Sundays. (Original) 昨今の時節柄、平日お休みの店舗が多く、 土日に伺うのがおすすめです。

(Translated by Google) The best (Original) 最高😎

(Translated by Google) Kawakaze feels good (Original) 川風が気持ちいい

(Translated by Google) The scenery looking up from the river was tasteful. Winter is warm with kotatsu. (Original) 川から見上げる景色は風情がありました。冬はコタツがあって暖かいです。

(Translated by Google) It is a small townscape of Koedo. Please be careful when walking as cars are passing by normally. Soy sauce gelato was very delicious (Original) こじんまりとした小江戸の町並みです。 普通に車が行き交っていますので、歩く時は注意をしてください。 しょうゆジェラートがとてもおいしかったです

(Translated by Google) The story of Mr. Boatman was more interesting than I expected. In the summer, there's no roof so I need a hat. (Original) 思ったよりも船頭さんの話が面白かったです。夏場は、屋根もないので帽子必要かなぁ

(Translated by Google) The best boat trip ❗️ (Original) 舟めぐり最高です❗️

(Translated by Google) I enjoyed listening to the explanation of the cityscape while entering the kotatsu. The river is not so beautiful to compliment it, but the view from a low perspective was very good with an extraordinary atmosphere. (Original) 炬燵に入りながら街並みの説明を聴けて楽しめました。 川はお世辞にもキレイとは言えませんが、低い目線から見る景色は非日常な雰囲気でとても良かったです。

(Translated by Google) Be healed (Original) 癒やされる

(Translated by Google) Very nice. However, you need to be careful because there are times when the boat does not leave depending on the amount of water. (Original) とても素敵です。 でも、水量によっては、船が出ない時があるので注意が必要です。

(Translated by Google) The view from the boat is wonderful unlike a walk (Original) 舟からの眺めが、散歩と違い素晴らしい

(Translated by Google) There is a kotatsu on the boat, you can enjoy a boat tour while warming up (Original) 船にはこたつがあり、暖まりながら舟めぐりを楽しめます

(Translated by Google) For weekdays, there are few people. However, the houses along the river slip back in time. It is stored securely. (Original) 平日のためか、人が少ない。しかし、川沿いの家並みは、昔へ、タイムスリップ。 しっかりと保存されています❗️

(Translated by Google) There are few parking lots around Koedo. The scenery I saw in the distance was "ho", but each store felt "...". It was an atmosphere where I went there somewhere. (Original) 小江戸周辺の駐車場が少ない。 遠目に見た景観は、「ほー」と思うけど、店舗それぞれは、「・・・」って感じ。 どこかに行ったついでに寄る程度の雰囲気でした。

(Translated by Google) You can slowly view the historical cityscape of Sawara. At that time, you can hear interesting stories about Sahara's history. It will take about 30 minutes. I think the price was cheap. Sawara sightseeing is a place you can not miss. (Original) 佐原の歴史ある街並みをゆっくりと眺めることができます。その時には佐原の歴史について興味深い話を聞くことができます。約３０分ほどの行程になります。価格は安価だったと思います。佐原観光では外せないところです。

(Translated by Google) Did it pass in the evening? The reception was over. (Original) 夕方過ぎましたかね。受付が終わってました。
