AFUMI has 12 glamping accommodations on a large site of approximately 8,500 square meters. The name AFUMI was taken from the ancient name of Lake Biwa, "AWAUMI: OUMI. This resort plan is a boat cruise to such a beautiful location full of nature, which can be said to be the origin of the resort, to lunch and a cafe.

Since this is a private cruise boat, passengers can steer the boat if they wish. This is a valuable experience for young children to be able to drive a real boat.
*Operation is possible only when our specified safe water area and weather conditions are met.
The captain will always provide driving support.

If you drive the boat while looking at the route map displayed on the ship's navigation display, you will arrive at your destination without hesitation.
