Hozu River Boat Ride 保津川下り

Reviewed by: ぴろ

On a Sunday when the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, I was prepared to wait quite a while, but I was able to board the boat right away. The conversations with the boat crew were enjoyable, and I was very satisfied to be able to buy some dango during the trip before leaving the boat.

桜満開の日曜日かなり待たないと行けないかと覚悟してましたが直ぐに船に乗せてもらえ船上中船頭さんたちのトークも楽しく途中船上での買い物で団子を買って頂く事が出来大変満足し船を後にしました

It was a fleeting moment! While enjoying the seasonal cherry blossom scenery, I was moved by the boatmen's dedication and their entertaining talks that made us laugh. Thank you for your hard work! I would love to visit again during the autumn foliage season.

Kyoto Sagano Scenic Railway & Hozugawa River Boat Ride Tour

Lovely day bus and train trip (cancelled boat ride due to weather)

Reviewed by: Ellen

The tour guide was lovely. She didn’t speak much English but she had a book of phrases she needed to tell us written out so we knew what was going on. The bus ride had an English audio guide which was generally interesting. The train was beautiful, and the scenery was amazing. The boat trip was unfortunately cancelled due to the heavy rain the day before, so we had a long coach journey instead. The bamboo forest was incredible but very busy so if you want quiet maybe go by yourself instead of on a tour. we had three hours at Arashyama which was actually perfect, if we’d had a boat trip too it would have only been an hour which would have been too short!

京都・嵐山 貸切屋形船 水面から季節を楽しむ優雅な舟遊び＜飲食物持込OK／1時間貸切＞by 嵐山通船

First time on a yakatabune (traditional Japanese houseboat). 初めての屋形船

Reviewed by: そらみみさん

We took a private yakatabune (houseboat) ride for the first time with four people. What was great was not only the scenery but also the kindness of the boatman, who spoke to us at just the right distance, neither too close nor too far. He was a wonderful person.

We brought our own bento, but along the way, a shop boat came by, and we purchased some mitarashi dango (sweet rice dumplings). It was such a nice surprise. I plan to recommend this experience to others as well.

四人で貸切の屋形船に初めて乗船しました。
何が良かったかって、景色もさることながら、船頭さんが優しくて、付かず離れずよい距離感でお話ししてくださったことです。とても良い方でした。
お弁当は持ち込みましたが、途中、売店の船が来てくれて、みたらし団子を購入。こういうのもすごく嬉しいです。周りにも勧めようと思います。

It was so much fun! めっちゃ楽しい

Reviewed by: 優一郎

Whenever I go to Arashiyama, I always take a boat ride down the Hozu River and then enjoy walking around and eating in Arashiyama. It's so much fun, and I recommend it especially during the autumn foliage and cherry blossom seasons as it's beautiful. You might get a little wet. There are no restrooms for about two hours, so make sure to go before you start.

いつも嵐山行く時は必ず保津川下りしてそのまま嵐山で食べ歩きします。めっちゃ楽しいし紅葉シーズンや桜のシーズンはきれいなのでおすすめ。若干濡れます。トイレは2時間ぐらい行けないので必ず行っておくこと

During the peak season for autumn leaves in Kyoto, I spent a relaxing time away from the crowds at tourist spots. 京都紅葉のハイシーズン　観光スポットの大混雑を他所にゆったりとした時間を過ごしました

Reviewed by: 京都大々好きおじさん

During the peak of autumn leaves in Kyoto, I pondered where to go on a Saturday and decided to book a ride on the Hozu River, thinking it would allow me to enjoy a less crowded experience. The result was a great success; I immersed myself in a leisurely time while admiring the colorful autumn leaves along both banks of the river. Although the water level was low, resulting in a two-hour ride—double the usual time—it was still delightful, with the sounds of waterfowl and the humorous commentary from the boatmen making it an unforgettable experience. I am very grateful to the crew for their kindness and commitment to safety. I would love to take a ride again during cherry blossom season.

京都紅葉の真っ盛り、しかも土曜日何処に行こうかと思案したなか、保津川下りを予約すれば混雑に紛れない時間を過ごせるのではと申し込みました。結果は大成功、保津川両岸に色付く紅葉を目にしながら、ゆったりとした時間に浸りました。水かさが少ないという事で通常の倍の2時間という乗船でしたが、それもなお可というか水鳥の囀りと船頭さん達のユーモア溢れる解説やらで時を忘れるほどの心地良さでした。親切かつ安全第一で案内していただいた船乗りの皆さんには大感謝です。桜の頃も乗船したいと思いました。

It was thrilling! スリルありました‼️

Reviewed by: ローボレー

I took a boat ride during this year's autumn foliage season (November 26). According to the boatman, the water level was low due to a water shortage, causing the boat's bottom to hit rocks, which created a loud noise that was a bit frightening, but it also added to the thrill. Despite the low water volume, there was a sense of speed, and I almost got splashed several times, desperately guarding myself with a plastic sheet. The autumn leaves were beautiful, and along the way, we encountered a trolley train, waving enthusiastically at each other. I would love to take another ride at a different time in the future. The boatman mentioned that the water volume is higher in March and April, which is his favorite time of year.

今年の紅葉時期(11月26日)に乗船しました。
船頭さんのお話では水不足で水位が低いので船底に岩が当たるのでゴンゴンと音がするとの事で少し恐怖感がありましたが、返ってスリルも増しました。水量が少ないとの事でしてがスピード感もあり何度も水しぶきがかかりそうになり必死でビニールシートでガードしました。
紅葉は綺麗でしたし途中ではトロッコ列車にも会え乗客同士で手を大きく振合いました。
いつかまた違う時期に乗船したいと思いました。
船頭さんは曰く3～4月は水量が多く自分は一番好きな時期とのこと。

I was able to fully enjoy the autumn leaves. 紅葉を堪能出来ました。

Reviewed by: みいみ

On the last Sunday of November, due to the high season, my reservation for 9 AM was canceled about four weeks in advance. Not wanting to give up, I managed to successfully rebook for 9 AM about two weeks ago, which was a relief.

It seems that slots that were previously unavailable are now opening up at the last minute, so it might be worth checking frequently. Although you are asked to arrive 15 minutes before your reservation time, there is a shop in the waiting area where you can eat and drink, and there are spacious, warm benches to sit on, so arriving early shouldn't be a problem.

You can bring food and drinks onto the boat, so you can enjoy snacks while calculating restroom breaks. The travel time by boat seems to vary depending on the river's water level. If it's not winter, there is a shop on the boat towards the end where you can also get warm food.

We happened to see a monkey, which made my child very happy. We enjoyed the autumn leaves while being entertained by the fun talks of the three boatmen. If I have the chance again, I will definitely come back!

11月最終週の日曜日ハイシーズンの為、4週間程前に朝イチの９時からの予約が一旦キャンセルとなってしまいました。諦めきれず2週間程前に9時を無事予約が完了してホッとしました。
ギリギリになって今まで空いていない枠が開く様なのでこまめにチェックもありかも。
予約時間の15分前を指定されますが待合室の中に売店があり飲食できる広くて温かいベンチに座りつつ食べるスペースがあるので早めに到着しても困らないかと。
船に飲食物持参可能なのでトイレを計算しつつ飲み食いしながら楽しめます。川の水量によって船での移動時間が変わる模様。冬季でなければ終盤に船の売店があるのでそこでも温かい物が食べられます。
猿とたまたま会えたので子供がとても喜んでました。
紅葉を楽しみながら船頭さん３人の楽しいトークに引き込まれました。また機会があればお世話になります!

Reviewed by: mama

The boatman’s paddling skills and enthusiasm are truly amazing! The scenery met my expectations. If you come to Kyoto, I recommend the riverboat ride just a short walk from Kameoka Station. The boat ride is thrilling yet relaxing, and once you reach the dock near Togetsukyo Bridge, enjoy some herring soba, visit the Kamo Shrine, then head into the crowds for a stroll through the bamboo grove and to enjoy the autumn leaves. It’s a packed itinerary! I’ll be going again in spring.

船頭さん、漕ぐ技術と盛り上げと、ホントスゴイ!景観も期待通り。京都に来たなら、亀岡駅から歩いて直ぐの川下りがオススメ。舟はスリルとまったり、渡月橋近くの桟橋着いたらニシン蕎麦食べて、御髪神社参拝して、人混みへ、竹林散策と紅葉狩り、もりもりコースです。次は春に行きます。

A world that has continued since the Heian period, where you can enjoy wonderful scenery, thrills, laughter, and fresh air. 素晴らしい景色にスリルと笑いと新鮮な空気が味わえる平安時代から続く世界

Reviewed by: hirosaki

I visited on November 11, 2023, and although it was a bit early for the autumn leaves, the stunning scenery, thrill, laughter, and fresh air were incredible. The activities, which have been ongoing since the Heian period (130 years ago), attract 600,000 visitors from 120 countries annually and span 16 km over two hours. If you ever have the chance to visit Kyoto, be sure to include this in your plans. I recommend taking the Arashiyama Torokko train there and returning via the Hozu River boat ride; you will definitely be highly satisfied and find it perfect.

2023/11/11に行きましたが、紅葉には少し早く見れなかったが、素晴らしい景色にスリルと笑いと新鮮な空気が味わえる平安時代（観光は130年前）から続く世界120カ国年間60万人が訪れる16km2時間のアクティビティは素晴らしい。京都来られる事があるなら、是非予定に入れてください。行きは嵐山初のトロッコ列車で帰路は保津川下りで嵐山観光すれば絶対に満足度高いし完璧と思います。

The hardworking boatman. 頑張ってる船頭さん

Reviewed by: しん爺

The procedures were simple and on time, departing at 9 AM in the mist. After about 30 minutes, the fog cleared, and it was quite a charming moment. The autumn leaves weren't very beautiful, likely due to the nationwide lack of rain, but I enjoyed myself thanks to the boatman's thoughtfulness and playful banter.

I stayed at Route Inn near Kameoka Station, which is about a 5-minute walk to the boat dock. However, since parking was free, I moved my car from the hotel parking lot, which took just 2 minutes. If you park at the hotel, there’s an additional fee of 500 yen if you stay past 12 or 1 PM. For the return trip, since the tram station is far from the boat dock, I might take a taxi. If I return by JR, it’s only a 10-minute walk even at a leisurely pace. By the way, after exploring Arashiyama and Sagano, my wife took the tram while I took JR.

I hope to ride again during cherry blossom season someday.

Be careful as you can't go to the restroom for two hours, especially if you drink a lot. Although you arrive right in front of Arashiyama, there may be a wait during peak times.

手続きも簡単で時間通り、9時朝霧の中　出発

亀岡の駅近くのルートインに泊り　5分くらいで歩いて船着き場に行けますが、駐車場が無料だったので、ホテルの駐車場から車で2分で移動。ホテルでの駐車は　１２時だったか１時を過ぎると、追加料金５００円を取られます。
帰りはトロッコ電車で帰ると,船着き場へは遠いのでタクシーかな？

Hozu River Boat Ride 保津川下り

Reviewed by: ココ

On November 12th (Sunday), it was still a bit early for the autumn leaves, but I was able to enjoy the pleasant scenery without it being too cold. I experienced this about 20 years ago, and it felt like the river was flowing faster back then, but the boatman mentioned that the water level was low, making it difficult to paddle. For 4,500 yen, you can enjoy nearly two hours and feel like you're on a trip. However, since my seat was towards the back, I could only hear the cheerful laughter from others and could hardly hear the boatman's stories, which felt unfair. I think it would be nice if they could use a microphone or adjust the seating prices accordingly.

11/12(日)紅葉にはまだ早いですが、寒すぎず長閑な風景が楽しめました。
20年ほど前に一度経験しましたが、もっと川の流れが早かったように感じましたが、やはり船頭さんが、水位が低くて漕ぐのが大変だと仰ってました。
4,500円で2時間近く楽しめて、旅行気分が味わえます。
席が後ろの方で、楽しそうな笑い声が聞こえてくるだけで、船頭さんの話がほぼ聞こえず、不公平感があり、マイクを利用するか、席で金額に差を付けて貰えると良いなと思いました。

The Torokko train and the Hozu River boat ride. トロッコ列車と保津川下り

Reviewed by: ともちゃん

The course is to take the Torokko train from Arashiyama and return via the Hozu River boat ride. I purchased the e-ticket for the Torokko train on KKday. I made a reservation for the Hozu River boat ride on Veltra, but I couldn't change the number of people, so I had to cancel everything and rebook. I was worried that I might not be able to rebook. This concern lowered my overall rating.

I was also anxious about whether I could take the shuttle bus to the boat dock, but I was able to buy tickets with a coupon at Torokko Saga using my Manaca card (¥310 per person). The shuttle bus itself wasn't too crowded, and it seemed you could pay with cash or a transportation IC card. This might have been because the Torokko Saga train departed at 9:02 AM.

Since I had purchased tickets on KKday and Veltra, everything went very smoothly overall.

The Hozu River boat ride was a leisurely experience powered entirely by human effort. It felt quite long. However, I thought the lack of a service to take pictures while on the boat was a bit lacking in customer service. Also, although it was clear in the morning, I heard that the boat service was canceled in the afternoon due to bad weather. We didn't encounter any rain, but it did suddenly become overcast in Arashiyama. We were lucky!

嵐山から行きはトロッコ列車、帰りは保津川下りで嵐山に戻ってくるコースです。
トロッコ列車はkkdayでEチケットを買っておきました。
保津川下りはベルトラで予約しましたが、人数減の変更が出来ず、いったん全部キャンセルして再予約の必要がありました。
もしかして再予約できないのでは？と不安でした(^^;(^^;
その点の不安が評価を落とした理由です。

あと船乗り場への連絡バスも乗れるのか不安でしたが、トロッコ嵯峨でクーポン付きの切符をマナカで買えました(\310×人数分）
連絡バス自体はそう混むこともなく、現金でも交通系ICカードでも乗れるみたいでした。朝一トロッコ嵯峨9：02発だったためかもしれません。
kkdayとベルトラで購入しておいたため全体としてとてもスムーズでした。

保津川下りはすべて人力のゆったりとした川下りを楽しめました。
とても長く感じました。
ただ船に乗ってる写真を撮ってくれるサービスが全くないのがサービス精神にいまいち欠けるなと思いました(^^;(^^;
あとこの日は午前中快晴だったのに悪天候のため午後欠航になったそうです。
私たちは雨には逢いませんでしたが、たしかに嵐山では急にどんよりした空になりました。運が良かったです(^^;(^^;

At two and a half years old, he was over 80 cm, so he was able to join. He seemed to have a great time in the rapids, which was wonderful. The boatman's talk and skillful maneuvering were entertaining, and the two hours flew by.

行きは嵐山からトロッコ列車に乗り、連絡バスで船乗り場まで行き、こどもにとっては初めての保津川下り。2歳半ですが、80cm以上だったので乗ることができました。急流で楽しそうにしてくれて、とても良かったです。船頭さんのトークと巧みな舟捌きが面白く、2時間があっという間でした。

This is my third time, and it was great.
The scenery changes with the seasons—autumn, spring, and late summer—was refreshing.
The boatman's stories and calls were exquisite.
I highly recommend you take a ride at least once.

3回目ですがよかったですよ。
秋、春、晩夏と四季折々景色が違いいやされました。
船頭さんのお話や掛け声は絶妙です。
おすすめ一度は乗ってください。

京都・亀岡 保津川下り 事前予約でハイシーズンも安心！絶景・伝統・激流を楽しむ日本最古の川下り＜約2時間＞

The advance information and the guidance for reservation confirmation and boarding at the embarkation point allow passengers to wait with peace of mind (the boat ride itself was rainy, but it was still good). 事前案内、乗船場での予約確認や乗船までの案内内容で乗客は安心して待つことができる（船下り自体は雨だったがまあ良かった）

Honestly, I was filled with anxiety and impatience until we boarded the ship!
◎ Situation on the day
Our reserved boat ride was scheduled to depart at 11:00 with check-in at 10:45.
The shuttle bus from Torokko Kameoka Station left around 10:40.
The reservation information stated that the shuttle bus takes about 15 minutes, and that they would accept passengers even after the check-in time until the boat departs.
The bus was full, and we arrived at the boarding area around 10:50.
Since we were seated at the back of the bus, many people in front were unfamiliar with the payment process, causing delays, and as time passed, I became quite anxious as 11:00 approached.
When we reached the check-in counter, there was a long line (approximately 80 people).
There were separate lines for same-day tickets and reservations, so we naturally lined up in the reservation line (the same number of people were in line).
At this point, we had to fill out a card, wondering what the purpose of the reservation was as we waited.
It was well past 11:00, and the staff kept repeating, "We will call you in order," as numbers were called in the order of check-in, but what I wanted to know was whether everything would be alright since we were already past the check-in time.
Even though we had a reservation, we ended up on the last boat, which departed around 11:40.
Does that mean that many of the people in the same-day ticket line boarded earlier than us?
What is the point of making a reservation?
In the rain, we ended up on the last boat scheduled for 11:00 (departing at 11:40), but the boat ride was enjoyable thanks to the humorous guides.
◎ What I thought about it
If the connection with the Torokko was smooth, there would be no need to feel rushed (and it wouldn't be too long).
As first-time passengers, it would be helpful to have clear and polite guidance on the procedures for boarding, what to expect, and how long it would take to board in the crowded waiting area.
Creating an environment where passengers can wait comfortably until boarding, with clear displays of boarding order numbers, would be beneficial.
Shouldn't reservation customers have priority boarding?
I understand that they are in a difficult situation due to the harsh changes after COVID-19 and the circumstances surrounding the boat ride, but I hope they can continue this traditional boat ride safely.
I wish for their prosperity during the autumn foliage season.

正直、乗船まで、焦りと不安でいっぱいだった！
◎　当日の状況
私たちの予約した船下りは11:00発チェックイン10:45のもの
トロッコ亀岡駅着し連絡バスが発したのは10:40ころ
予約時の案内には連悪バス所要時間約15分で、チェックイン時間を過ぎても船発までは受け付けるとの記載があった
バスは満員で乗船場に着いたのが10:50ころ
バスの後ろに乗ってしまったため前から降りる人の支払いが不慣れな人も多くもたつき、ドンドン時間が過ぎ11:00が迫りかなり焦った
チェックインカウンター着くと長蛇の列（目算80人ほど）でごった返し
当日券と予約の列があり当然予約の列に並ぶ（同数の人が並んでいた）
ここでまた記載するカードがあり何のための予約かと思いながら記載して待つ
時間はとっくに11:00を過ぎ「順番に案内します」をスタッフが繰り返し、順番に先の受付順に番号が呼ばれて乗船していくが、ここで知りたかったのはチェックイン時間をドンドン過ぎているのに大丈夫なのかということ
私たちは予約していたのに最後の船11:40ころ発になった
とうことは、あの当日券の列に居た多くの人の方が早く乗ったとうこと？
予約って何？と思った
雨の中、11:00発予定の最後の船（11:40発）となったが、船下りは、ユーモアある船頭達の案内で楽しく過ごせた
◎　そこでどう思ったか
トロッコとの連絡連携がスムースなら焦ることもない（また長過ぎず）
乗客はまず初めてである　ごった返す乗船待合での「乗船までどういう手順なのか」「自分たちはどうなるのか」「どのくらいで乗れるのか」などの分かりやすく丁寧な案内や掲示、乗船順番号の掲示版などで乗船まで安心して待てる環境づくり
予約客から優先乗船ではないのかなぁ？
コロナ後の厳しい環境変化や船下りを取り巻く情勢などで苦境にあると思うが、伝統あるこの船下りを安全に続けていってほしい
紅葉季の繁盛を祈る
