Helpfulness
I think that it is a tourist trap to go on this cruise cos it is expensive
(JPY5000 per person) with low quality food. It was a "buffet" dinner. Inverted commas because if you do not rush to the food table before everyone else does, you will end up with cheap food nobody want to try. This is because, no refill for the food. Once it is finished, no more food for you then. This is way below my expectation for a buffet.
For views on the lake, well, too dark to see for most part of the journey. Not very impressive to me. Perhaps I have been to the highlands in Scotland.
Unique Suggestions: Stand near to the food table and rush to it when it start. Expect to stand and eat.
Fun Alternatives: For that money, you can try a mini kaiseki in Kyoto.
