The boat passes under various bridges, sluice gates, and overhead highways, giving passengers the chance to view Osaka from a different perspective than the usual. The ship’s morning cruises which come with a breakfast of fresh-picked vegetables are quite popular. The closest station to the Hachikenyahama docks where the boat leaves from is Temmabashi Station.

While Osaka prefecture is the country's second smallest prefecture, its capital, Osaka City, is the country’s third-largest and arguably one of the most popular in the Kansai region thanks to its vibrant nightlife, the Osaka people’s openness, and its much-loved cuisine, which has earned it the nickname "the nation’s kitchen."
