貸切観光タクシー 外国人ゲスト歓迎!英語堪能なドライバーと京都名所を巡る自由観光コース<3時間~/1-9名/京都市内送迎可>by ヤサカ観光

The driver was kind, and the English explanation was good. 親切なドライバーさんで英語の説明も良かったです

Reviewed by: カイまま

The driver was very kind, and it was a fun time. The explanations in English for my family and the consideration for my elderly parents were wonderful. They even took photos for us, making it a very meaningful experience. I would like to request this again on another occasion.

ドライバーさんはとても親切で、楽しい時間となりました。家族のために英語での説明、高齢の両親の気配りも素晴らしく、写真も撮ってくれたりと、とても有意義な時間となりました。またの機会のお願いしたいと思います。

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

A blissful moment, a houseboat in Arashiyama. 至福のひと時、嵐山の屋形船

Reviewed by: sheis

I had a wonderful hour relaxing on a houseboat in Arashiyama! The floating convenience store was very appealing. There were so many tempting options like oden, grilled squid, and mitarashi dango!

嵐山の屋形船でのんびり楽しめた1時間 最高でした!水上コンビニの販売がとても魅力的です。おでん・イカ焼き・みたらし団子など、そそられるものが一杯!

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

As expected, a professional skill. さすが、プロの技

Reviewed by: とよ

It was a bit cold, but I was lent a blanket, which made it comfortable. There were many rowboats around, but true to their professional skills, they navigated safely with just a long pole. I also got to hear stories that touched on history, and the autumn leaves 🍁 were wonderful; the hour flew by. Arashiyama was very crowded, and I struggled to find parking, which made me late, but since it was a private tour, they kindly waited until everyone arrived. I really appreciated their warm hospitality. I would love to do this activity again. Highly recommended!

少し寒かったですが、ブランケットを貸して頂き、快適でした。周りに手漕ぎボートがいっぱいでしたが、さすがプロの技、長い棒1本で安全な航行でした。歴史にも触れたお話も聞けて、紅葉🍁も素晴らしく、あっという間の1時間でした。嵐山は、とても混んでいて、駐車場探しに手こずって遅れてしまいましたが、貸切だからということもあり、全員揃うまで待ってくださりました。とても暖かい対応も感謝でした。また、お願いしたいアクティビティです。
おすすめです。

Kyoto Arashiyama Private Yakatabune: Elegant Boat Ride to Enjoy Seasonal Scenery

Amazing Experience

Reviewed by: Lulu

Kyoto Arashiyama Private Yakatabune offers a serene and elegant 1-hour boat ride through Arashiyama’s breathtaking seasonal scenery — perfect for groups of four. The experience is made even better by the wonderful guide, who is not only accommodating but also helps capture amazing photos throughout the trip. Communication can be a bit challenging since the guide mainly speaks Japanese, so downloading Google Translate is highly recommended for a smoother and more enjoyable experience.

I thought it would be a bit longer. もう少し時間が長いと思ってました

Reviewed by: スマイル

As others have mentioned, 2025 was marked by heavy rain (the rain cloud radar was completely red). We had to endure the heavy rain and thunder while on the boat, and the cormorant fishing started once the rain lightened. There were 18 boats lined up in a row. This was part of our tour, along with another company, and some local bookings.

The cormorant fishing begins to show the passengers on these lined-up boats. Since it goes back and forth from one end to the other, we only had a few minutes to actually enjoy the cormorant fishing with our own eyes. Whether there is conversation inside the boat depends on the boatman. It's a matter of luck.

After the cormorant fishing ended, we saw the sending fire, and I was moved by this first-time sight. Shortly after, we moved to the dock and disembarked. The boarding time was about an hour. According to the itinerary we received, I thought it would be a bit longer (as the second sending fire was also visible from the boat), so I was disappointed. I found myself trying to see through the crowd. Additionally, when disembarking, there was a step over 60 centimeters high, which was difficult while carrying luggage and an umbrella. (However, this was just a matter of luck regarding the boarding location.)

Although there was no luck with the disembarking location, the boat I was on was the furthest from Togetsukyo Bridge, so I could enjoy the sounds of flutes and gagaku music flowing from a nearby restaurant in the quietness, and I felt elegant while watching other boats with maiko. I also enjoyed the sound of shamisen from other hotels, making for a pleasant time even in the heavy rain.

The boat was spacious, had a roof, and we sat directly on the floor after taking off our shoes. I had brought a poncho-style raincoat from a 100-yen shop, so I didn't get wet during the ride. Given the heavy rain, it was a good decision not to bring food or drinks, but I thought it would be nice if the weather had been good. Oh, by the way, the website mentioned that snacks would be included, but that was not the case.

ほかの方も書かれているように、2025年は大雨(雨雲レーダーで真っ赤)でした。大雨と雷を船に乗りながらやり過ごすかたちになり、小雨になってから鵜飼いが始まりました。船が18隻縦に連なっていました。こちらのツアー分ともう1社、あとは現地申込み分でした。
この連なる船の乗客に見せるために鵜飼いがはじまります。端から端まで往復しておわりなので、実際に自分たちの目で鵜飼いを楽しめるのは数分あるかないかです。船頭さんによって船内の会話があるかないか決まります。運です。
 鵜飼いが終わると送り火が見え、初めての光景に感激しました。そのあと直ぐに船着き場に移動し下船解散でした。乗船時間は1時間ほどです。頂いていた日程表ではもう少し長い(二つ目の送り火も船から見えると)と思っていたので、がっかりでした。人をかき分けてみるようになります。また、下船の際には60センチ以上の高さの段差を越える必要があり、荷物と傘を持ってでは大変でした。(ただこれは着船時の場所運です)

下船時の場所運はありませんでしたが、自分が乗った船は渡月橋から一番奥方向の船であったため、街灯などが目に入らず静けさのなか、近くの料亭から流れてくる笛や雅楽の音を楽しみ、舞子さんを仕立てたほかの船を眺めて優雅な気分になったり、ほかのホテルが仕立てた三味線?の音を楽しんだりと、大雨でも気分の良い時間でもありました。

船はゆったりとしていて、屋根があり、靴を脱いで直に床に座ります。100均のポンチョ型のレインコートを持ってきていたので、乗船中は濡れませんでした。大雨だったので食事や飲み物を持っていなくて正解でしたが、天気が良かったら気持ちが良いだろうなと思います。あ、そういえば、HPではお菓子付きということでしたが、それはありませんでした。

Went with my family, since we came the service was very efficient, no waiting line and it was a private reservation so we had the boat by ourselves.

The view is beautiful, the food was really good and had a lot of variety of Japanese food, the presentation of everything was really well thought!

There is also a convenience boat, which selled drinks, grilled squid and dango. It was very nice! 1 hour of boat trip but it was totally worth it.

Yakatabune cruise 屋形船遊覧

Reviewed by: ゆ う

The reception starts at 6:30 PM, but it began earlier than that. The restroom is right nearby. It was pouring rain, but I was able to see both the cormorant fishing and the Gozan no Okuribi (Daimonji Fire Festival). I feel like there was a lot of wasted time before the cormorant fishing started. Even though the boat ride was long, it ended rather abruptly. There are eight people on one boat, so it's quite spacious.

受付は18時30分ですが、それより前に受け付け始まってました。
トイレはすぐそばにあります。土砂降りでしたが、鵜飼も五山の送り火もみれました。

Last year, I learned about this course and wanted to participate this year, so I joined. Unfortunately, it rained, but I was able to see "ukai" up close. From the boat, I could clearly see the large bonfire, and it was very moving. I also got to see the torii-shaped bonfire and the spirit floating, which was very meaningful. When I got home, I found red paint on my polo shirt.

去年、このコースがあるのを知り、今年はぜひ参加したいと思い参加しました。
あいにくの雨でしたが「鵜飼い」を間近で見れました。船の上から大文字の送り火がはっきり
見え、とても感動しました。あと鳥居形の送り火と精霊流しも見れてとても有意義でした。家に帰ったら、ポロシャッに赤いペンキが付いてた。

Tips and suggestions

If the weather had been better, it would have been perfect. Since we brought beer and snacks, it was great to drink beer on the boat while swaying until the "cormorant fishing" started.

Tips and suggestions

天気が良ければ、もっと良かった。ビールとおつまみを持ち込んでいたので、「鵜飼い」が始まるまでの時間、船に揺られてビールを飲むのが最高です。

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

Chartered boat elegance 貸切船 優雅

Reviewed by: あっちゃん

Recently, despite the sudden heavy rain, we were blessed with good weather and enjoyed a private experience without the scorching heat. The boatman explained everything well and was friendly, allowing us to relax for an hour. With a roof overhead, we could enjoy the shade while fanning ourselves in a pleasant atmosphere. After dealing with a lot of unpleasant things lately, I was able to spend time peacefully. Additionally, there were other boats around, and it seemed like everyone was unsure of their direction and might collide, but the boatman helped us escape slowly. Thank you very much.

最近ゲリラ豪雨もある中天気に恵まれカンカン照りでもなく優雅に貸切で堪能しました。
船頭さんも良く説明のタイミングがよく
話したら気さくに話をかえしてくれてのんびり1時間過ごせました。
屋根ありなので日陰のなか扇子をあおぎ良い空間を過ごせます。
最近嫌なことが多かった為、心穏やかに過ごせました。また、周りにテゴキボートがいて、みんな行きたい方向がわからずぶつかられそうでしたが船頭さんはゆっくりと脱出してくれました。
ありがとうございました。

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

The best boat trip to fully enjoy the great nature of Arashiyama. 嵐山の大自然を満喫できる最高の船旅

Reviewed by: KENTA

At first, I thought, "Isn't one hour a bit long?" and "The price is a bit high (15,000 yen for a private boat for two for one hour)," but now I think, "I'm glad I made the reservation!" Since it was a private boat for two and the first time slot (9 AM), there were hardly any other tourists on board, allowing us to leisurely enjoy the scenery of Arashiyama! The boatman was very kind, often asking, "Shall I take your picture?" and sharing local stories. I really appreciated his kindness! Next time, I want to enjoy Arashiyama in the different seasons of spring, autumn, and winter!

最初は「一時間長くね?」「値段ちょっと高いなぁ(二人貸切一時間合計15000円)」と思いながら予約しましたが、今は「予約しててよかった」と思っています!
二人の貸切しかも一番目の時間帯(九時)のため、他に乗船する観光客もほぼいませんし、ゆっくりと嵐山の風景を堪能することができました!船頭さんも何回も「写真撮ってあげましょうか」って話しかけてくれたり、地元の話を紹介してくれたりして、すごく優しい人です!
今度はまた春、秋、冬の違う季節の嵐山を楽しみたいと思います!

Thank you for boarding with us. From 9 AM, there are usually not many boat customers, making it an ideal time for a peaceful experience. I believe you can enjoy various beautiful views throughout the seasons. Please do come again.

この度は、御乗船いただきありがとうございます。朝9時からは、ボートのお客様も比較的いらっしゃらないことが多く お静に御乗船いただくのには最適なお時間だと思います。四季折々いろんな景色を楽しんでいただくことが出来ると思います。ぜひ、またお越しくださいませ。

It would be better if there were a little more time. もうちょっと時間に余裕があればもっと良いです。

Reviewed by: こゆき

I visited three places, and two hours flew by. I wish I had a bit more time to explore the Arashiyama and Kiyomizu-dera areas. The meeting point was easy to find, and the driver was kind, making for a comfortable sightseeing experience.

3箇所にいくので、2時間があっと言う間でした。嵐山と清水寺界隈の散策時間がもう少しほしいです。
待ち合わせ場所はわかりやすくて、ドライバーさんも優しかったので快適な観光でした。

Reviewed by: jujuroom

The weather was nice, with Somei Yoshino cherry blossoms downstream and mountain cherry blossoms upstream. At the waterside, the ducks gathered around for food, looking adorable. It was an extraordinary experience, and I felt a deep sense of happiness living in Japan.

Thanks to the boatman’s stories, I was able to learn about a new side of Kyoto, and I appreciate the meaningful time I had.

お天気良くて、下流にはソメイヨシノ、上流には山桜🌸水辺には鴨🦆達が餌に群がり可愛い🩷姿。
非日常で、日本に住んでいる事の幸せをたっぷりと感じる事が出来ました。

船頭さんの話で、新たな京都を知る事が出来、有意義な時間を頂き有難うございました。
