Tokyo to Kumagaya Sakura Tsutsumi: Private day trip

One of the Kanto region’s most famous sakura promenades, wide, open, and unhurried. Named one of Japan’s top 100 cherry blossom viewing spots, this relaxed walk along the Arakawa River is home to around 500 cherry trees that form a continuous blossom-lined path for two kilometers (1.2 miles). Stroll beneath the sakura, stopping often for photos and river views. During peak season, temporary food stalls appear near the main access points, making it easy to grab a snack or drink. If you visit during the Kumagaya Sakura Festival, lanterns and banners add a festive atmosphere. Take time to sit along the embankment, enjoy the open space, and experience hanami in a setting designed for lingering rather than rushing.
