Based on the concept of a “tiny inn floating in Setouchi,” GUNTU entered service in October 2017.
It is a cruise ship that offers unparalleled luxury as it drifts through the calm Seto Inland Sea and encounters the spectacular scenery and charm of the islands.
Here we introduce some of the attractions of the GUNTU and more.

GUNTU is located in the magnificent Seto Inland Sea.
The ship arrives and departs from the Bella Vista Marina in Onomichi, Hiroshima Prefecture.
Guests leave their luggage in the dedicated lounge and go through check-in procedures while enjoying a view of the sea.
The ship was designed by architect Yasutsugu Horibe.
The ship’s distinctive triangular gable roof was designed to blend in with the landscape of the Setouchi islands, which are home to many villages with tiled roofs.

The charm of GUNTU is that you can spend an elegant time while having the entire ocean to yourself.
Inside the ship, which is dotted with various facilities, you can go out on the terrace and look at the sea, or enjoy a bath for training with the sea at your side.
GUNTU is also equipped with two small tender boats.
Here you can board and head out to the islands that dot the Seto Inland Sea on a daily basis.
Various extra-vehicular experiences are one of the best parts of the trip that can only be experienced on GUNTU.

When it comes to “food” in the Setouchi area, seafood is what it is all about. In order to provide guests with the freshest ingredients, GUNTU purchases fish of the day from fishermen wherever they go.
The basis of a meal at GUNTU is “anything you want, as much as you want.
If you visit the dining room during business hours, you can enjoy your meal at your leisure while you are on the water.
In addition to fresh fish, there is a wide variety of meats, creative dishes, and fruits.
