It was more fun than I expected. 予想以上に楽しかった。

Reviewed by: ヨシヒコ

I thought I would get bored after riding for two hours, but the boatman's stories were enjoyable, and the river descent was not too intense, allowing us to have a great time. I was hoping to see cherry blossoms, but it seems I was a bit early. In Arashiyama, they were about 30% in bloom, but in Hozu River, there were hardly any blossoms. I would love to come back during the fresh green season.

2時間も乗っていると時間を持て余すかと思いましたが、
船頭さんのお話も楽しく、川下りも激しすぎず楽しい時間を過ごせました。
桜を期待していたのですが少し早かったようです。嵐山では3分咲きくらいでしたが保津川ではほとんど咲いていませんでした。
新緑の季節にまた来たいです。

Hozu River Boat Ride 保津川ライン下り

Reviewed by: coco

I thought I might get a bit bored since it was a long time, but the three boatmen took turns speaking, each with their own personality, and the 90 minutes flew by. If I have the chance to go to Kyoto again, I would love to ride again.

長い時間なので少し飽きてしまうかと思っていましたが、3人の船頭さんが順番にお話しされ、それぞれの方に個性があり、あっという間の90分でした。京都に行く機会があったらまた乗りたいと思います。

It's convenient to have a reservation. 予約していると楽

Reviewed by: シルケン

Without having to wait in line at the ticket counter, I wasn't sure if I could get a spot at the time I wanted, which made it difficult to plan. However, it was a bit more expensive to book in advance, but it gave me peace of mind. I waited about 30 minutes before boarding. You can eat and drink on the boat. There are refreshments available in the waiting room, and towards the end, they come around selling items on the boat. The boatmen were entertaining. It was a relaxing experience.

窓口で並ぶことなく、乗りたい時間が取れるかわからない、どうなるかにより予定が立たないこともなく、事前に少し窓口より高かったですが、
予約してあると安心です。乗るまでに30分くらい待ちました。船の中で飲食できます。待合室に売っていますし、最後の方ですが、船に売りに来ます。
船頭さんたちが面白かったです。のんびりしました。

I participated in the Hozu River boat ride! The weather was nice from the morning, and the autumn leaves were beautiful, making the view absolutely stunning! The boatman was also a funny guy, and we were laughing the whole time! In December, it gets cold, so it's better to dress warmly. Eating and drinking were allowed on the boat! There were boats selling oden and grilled squid, so buying and eating those would enhance the atmosphere and make it even more enjoyable! I want to ride this in every season!

Hozu River Boat Ride in the Autumn Leaves 名残もみじの保津川下り

Reviewed by: イケママ

Just a few days ago, there was strong wind, so we missed the peak of the autumn leaves, but we enjoyed the beautiful maple trees along the river for two hours. The water was quite shallow, and the boatman, while out of breath, entertained us with plenty of humor. We hardly got splashed at all.

4,100 yen seemed a bit expensive at first, but we were very satisfied with the entertainment provided by the three boatmen over the two hours. I would love to visit again in a different season.

つい3,4日前に強風があったこともあり、紅葉の季節を外れてしまいましたが、ところどころ美しいもみじの川辺を、2時間かけてくだりました。水深がかなり低く、舵を取る船頭さんも、息を切らしながらそれでもユーモワーたっぷりの会話で楽しませてもらいました。水しぶきはほとんどかかりませんでした。
4100円 最初は高いかなとおもいましたが、3人の船頭さんが2時間かけてのエンターティメントにだいまんぞくでした。また違う季節に行ってみたいです。

Hozu River Boat Ride in Kameoka, Kyoto 京都・亀岡 保津川下り

Reviewed by: ゆ　う

I participated on Saturday, November 20th. There was only a 9 AM departure, but it was great to start early in the morning. I think four boats left at the same time.

The check-in was set up exclusively for Veltra, and I was able to board smoothly. We were in the front row with four people, but there was a plastic cover, so we didn't get wet.

There were some rapids here and there, but it seemed like the water level was low that day, so we didn't get splashed too much. The autumn leaves were at their peak, and I enjoyed a boat trip of just under two hours.

11月20日土曜に参加しました。時間が9時便しかなかったのですが、朝一でよかったです。同じ時間に4隻は出ていたと思います。
受付はベルトラ専用に用意されていて、スムーズに乗船できました。
1列4名で一番前でしたが、ビニールがあるので、濡れることもなかったです。
所々激流がありましたが、水量が少ない日だったみたいで、それほど水しぶきがかからなかったです。紅葉が見ごろで2時間弱の船旅楽しめました。

Beautiful autumn leaves. 綺麗な紅葉

Reviewed by: ぐりとぐら

Although there were concerns about the rain from the previous day, we were able to enjoy the beautiful autumn leaves without any falling. The cold was not as severe as I expected, and in the sunny spots, it was comfortable as we leisurely enjoyed about 1 hour and 40 minutes of river cruising. However, I was a bit concerned about the close proximity of people, as those in front of us were talking while drinking alcohol and had their masks off. I think each season offers different scenery, so I would like to visit again during the fresh green season.

前日の雨が心配されましたが、葉が散ることなく綺麗な紅葉が楽しめました。寒さも思ったほどではなく、陽が当たるところは快適でゆっくりと1時間40分ほどの川下りを満喫しました。
ただ人と人との距離がとても近く、前席の方々がお酒を呑みながらマスクを外して話されていたのが気になりました。
季節ごとに違った景色を楽しめると思うので、次は新緑の時期に訪れたいです。

My husband & I ENJOYED this trip so much. At first we were very nervous about purchasing this trip due to the fact that it had a special “review rebate” but it turned out to exceed our expectations.

This trip wouldn’t have been the same without June! He was an amazing tour guide. Being in a different country can be nervous but he explained the culture in a way that you will be able to understand! We got to visit all of the popular destinations here in Kyoto without worrying about calling a taxi, time or even admission costs. June took care of everything!

Memorable tour

Reviewed by: Herry S

We spend 15 days in Japan and took many local tours from many different tour companies, this is by far the best we had.
Jun, our tour guide, a Japanese native with fluent english speaking, very punctual and organized and also gave us enough free time to explore our own. He is very passionate and knowledgeable about Japanese culture and very happy and proudly shared with us along the trip and on every location we visited.
For anyone looking for this tour, I suggest to travel lite, although there's enough time for everyone, we even have a couple with a toddler and stroller within our group at that time, we still manage to finish all location and have spare time. But without our punctual guide, we won't be able to see so many locations in a day.
Very well organized, I will definitely recommend this to everyone.

Effective and efficient tour of Kyoto in 1 day!

Reviewed by: Rachel

I would recommend this tour if you are looking for an efficient and effective use of time to cover all the main attractions of Kyoto in 1 day. The attractions covered were all the must see attractions so there was no time wasted at visiting attractions that were less popular. Time spent at each location is also about right - not too long and not too short. It didn’t feel very rush and we still had time to grab some but and walk around on our own a little. The bus was also comfortable and we manage to catch a nap between the attractions that were further apart. The explanations provided by the guide could be abit more detailed (as we are history lovers), but the information provided is definitely enough if you are looking for just an overview and the gists. Overall, it was definitely a day and money well spent given that we managed to cover all the attractions we wanted to see in Kyoto in one day. It was our first time in Kyoto, so this tour really helped to save us a lot of time and trouble of having to figure our way out via public transport. We wouldn’t have been able to cover all the attractions without this tour. The guided tour also helped us enjoy each attraction efficiently such that we do not have to loiter around aimlessly.

Very good experience overall. Professional bus driver who drove safely and kept to the strict timelines. Our guide Joon was very friendly and witty. Well done!
I would suggest that the lunch option should include seafood or halal options. After a full day of walking settling for pure vegetarian food was a bit of a let down. Otherwise, I strongly recommend this tour to visitors who have limited time in Kyoto. It takes you to all the major sites and provides you with a good orientation of the city.

Due to limited time We booked this tour the day before. Due to the Booking time already closed on the website we had to co-ordinate our booking through VELTRA facebook messenger. The team were very fast to rely & with great communication we were able to secure 3 seats on the Tour.
The meeting location across from Kyoto Station was very easy to find & we waited for our Tour Guide. Jorge Introduced himself & lead us onto the bus for a very full day of sight seeing.
At Each Cultural sight we were given a full educational history & cultural commentary by Jorge & then our own time to explore, if time permitted a little shopping. My daughters & I always seemed to be rushing for the bus as so much to see & do at each location. Even though Jorge is not a native from Japan his knowledge & insight is fantastic. We found Jorge to be funny, calm & professional.
Our Tour was on Saturday & a public holiday in Japan, so some locations such
as the Bamboo Forrest & 1001 Tori gates were busy. Due to the crowds & a few mishaps during the day, & through no fault of our Tour guides, we ran behind
time. WE made our last stop The Golden Pavilion 10 mins before closing & as the sun was going down. Luckily I was able to get a few photos & walk around the Temple before the gates were closed. Our supplied lunch at the Bamboo Forest location was very unique & tasty.
I Recommend NOT DOING the TOUR on the weekend or Public Holiday if
possible. I would use Veltra Tours again & 100% highly recommend Jorge as a Tour Guide. Its a very full busy day & was very glad to be able to rest on the bus between locations.

Great Tour to see three of the most popular sights.

Reviewed by: David Seaton

Finding the starting point was easy as it was very easy to see at the train station. It was nice that there were translations available as one of us spoke English and the other spoke Chinese. Despite rainy weather the tour was great. The tour obviously runs on a schedule so lingering to meditate will not work. There was enough time to follow the trails and get a number of photos but be aware that there will be crowds as these are very popular tourist places. This is an easy way to see the temples and to avoid numerous train and subway changes.

Great experience seeing top sights in Kyoto!

Reviewed by: MikeT

My wife and I wanted to see several top sights in Kyoto in one day, but without the feeling of “it is 10.30, here is the temple, you have 2 minutes to take a couple of pictures then off we go.” Veltra’s full-day Kyoto highlights tour provided more than adequate time to enter each site and absorb its character. We greatly benefitted from an excellent and good-humored tour leader who provided concise but insightful explanations of the site being visited and its historical context. We especially enjoyed Kiyomizudera, where one has the chance to drink from one of three “streams of wisdom” coming from the sacred spring; the Fushimi Inari shrine, with its amazing “tunnel” of ochre torii; and Kinkakuji as the setting sun reflected off its gold exterior. Signing up for the tour was easy; finding the meeting point was easy; and following along with the narrations was easy (though some pre-recorded narrations on the bus were garbled — the guide just jumped in to fill the gap). Taking the optional upgrade to have lunch provided was a fun and cost-effective move. We would not hesitate to tour again with Veltra — a well-run outfit providing great value for money.
