As a pioneer in Japan's leisure cruise industry, it has been active for 35 years, undergoing two refurbishments and renewals in 2010 and 2020, and has created a variety of experiences and memories for its guests.

Taking advantage of its compact size, the NIPPON MARU has called at various ports, both large and small, served meals showcasing local specialities, hosted extraordinary events created in conjunction with local communities, and received tremendous support from local governments, tourist associations, and residents of its ports of call.

During the last cruise, the NIPPON MARU will offer special dinners featuring seasonal ingredients from the ports of call associated with the cruise, as well as small gifts as a token of the company's appreciation. (Note) According to MOL Cruises records through March 2025.

The itineraries and events after February 2026 will be announced as soon as they are finalised.
