Asakusa/Daiba by water bus + Yurikamome 2008/2/7 13:02
I would like to take the water cruise from Asakusa to Hinode. Can anyone tell me the cruise schedule?
And from Hinode can I get on the Yurikamone train to reach Odaiba?I know that the Yurikamone train start from Shimbashi station,but does it stop at Hinode?

Yes, Hinode Station is just a short walk from the pier.

I know that the Yurikamone train start from Shimbashi station,but does it stop at Hinode?

May I recommend that you take the water bus from Asakusa directly to Odaiba. That way goes right under the rainbow bridge, very nice. :) You can then take the train over the bridge on your way back and at Hinode station, make a short detour to the detached palace garden. :)

If you want to follow Haf's good suggestion, note that you have the option of either transferring at Hinode Pier to a different boat that goes to Odaiba, or take a special direct boat all the way from Asakusa to Odaiba. The options are all introduced below:

Great information 2008/2/8 12:06
Thanks Haf and Uji for the websites and suggestions.
The direct cruise from Asakusa sounds good.On the return trip,I'll take the Yurikamone train to Shimbashi.
Should I buy the round trip ticket that is valid for 2 days? From Japan-guide information, there seems to be a lot to see and do in Odaiba. I can go there a second time on the next day,after Tsukiji,Pokemon center and Tokyo tower.
I would also like to take the Himiko boat.It's so futuristic,my kids will love it.

Hi everyone!
I would like to take the special water bus called "himiko" from Asakusa to Odaiba. Can anyone tell me where it exactly stops in Odaiba and how long it takes? Thank you so much in advance!
Yours Momo
