By Yukimaru’s Japan Travel ユキ丸のぶらり旅

In this Japan travel vlog, YouTuber Yukimaru's journey takes us on a peaceful and leisurely cycling and food-hopping adventure along the rain-kissed banks of the Tama River (多摩川), nestled away from the hustle and bustle of central Tokyo. This nature-infused outing embraces the tranquility of Tokyo’s Setagaya Ward (世田谷区), and features a blend of scenic spots and hidden culinary gems.

The exploration kicks off with a visit to Bakery Petit-House (パン工房プチハウス), a cozy neighborhood bakery—perfect for picking up freshly baked breads ideal for a light riverside snack. Shortly afterward, Yukimaru visits Tosha Kebab, a mobile doner kebab kitchen car serving hearty and flavorful street food. Not long after, there's a stop at a trendy eatery called BETTY, where he continues his casual exploration of the local food scene.

As the journey continues, one of the most scenic stops is the serene Todoroki Ravine Park (等々力渓谷公園), the only ravine park in Tokyo. Located in the heart of Setagaya, this lush natural oasis features wooden walkways nestled beside the gentle stream—creating a fantastic backdrop for a calm break from city life. The park is a favored local escape, offering visitors the rare blend of silence, green nature, and flowing water, all within Tokyo.

The food journey doesn’t stop there. Yukimaru visits Setsugekka (雪月花), a charming restaurant offering beautifully presented Japanese dishes. He caps off the cyclo-tour with a stop at Komedokoro Nagomu (米処なごむ), a cozy rice shop and eatery where soothing flavors and home-style cooking warm the soul.

By combining the beauty of Tokyo’s lesser-seen nature spots with delightful small eateries, this video paints a wholesome portrait of local discovery. Ideal for foodies, cycling enthusiasts, and those looking to escape the city crowds, Yukimaru’s route through Setagaya and along the Tama River offers a model for a slow travel day in Japan.
