What to expect

What You'll Get

Every year from late March to mid-April, it is a good time to enjoy cherry blossoms everywhere. In parks, gardens, and river banks, various spring events and flower viewing sessions will be held. It is a good opportunity to enjoy the beauty of spring with the locals. 


Sakura Season at Iwate's Takamatsu Park. Enjoy one of Japan's Top 100 Cherry Blossom Spots. 


Our Japan shore adventures are created by Western destination experts who live in Japan combined with local Japanese tour specialists to showcase all the best attractions in Japan and provide a unique understanding of Japan from a Western point of view. This is why our Japan tour packages are the most comprehensive and unparalleled.

  • Enjoy delicious Japanese wagashi sweets and green tea in a quaint cafe
  • Private English-speaking tour guide.
  • Private transportation.

Tour Brief

Iwate's Takamatsu Park features on the list of Japan's Top 100 Cherry Blossom viewing spots, and it's a popular destination during the spring season. The park grounds are home to over 1000 sakura trees that line the Takamatsu-no-ike pond, and boats are available for rent so that visitors can enjoy the blooms from a unique vantage point.


Feasibly, if you visit Takamatsu Park you could also fit in Kitakami Tenshochi Park into your visit - it's another of the prefecture's top cherry blossom spots and is around an hour's drive away.


Cruise passengers: You may get this excursion for FREE if you book the cruise through us or transferring your existing reservation to us (meaning we are your travel agent who booked the cruise for you with nothing changed). Please contact us to learn how.
