— What You Can Expect —
The Hozu River originates from the Tamba Highlands in the central area of
Kyoto Prefecture and surrounds the mountains of Kyoto to Kameoka, then crosses
a 16km canyon, and finally flows into the Yodo River through the Kamo River.
Local boatsmen use slender bamboo poles, rudders and oars to skilfully steer
the boat freely among the rocks. There are usually three boatsmen in charge of
steering, but depending on the wind direction and water level of the day, it
may take up to five boatsmen to maneuver the boat.
Hozu River Valley boasts distinct natural beauties through the seasons: cherry
blossoms in spring, frog songs during summer, vivid crimson leaves and perfect
reflection in autumn, and the valley blanketed in snow during winter. In
winter, the boats are lined with heated tatami to stay warm. The Hozu River is
long and ever-changing, winding its way around huge rock formations that make
the views unparalleled.

You have to do this activity. Catch the romantic Sagan train to Kameoka and then take this magnificent relaxing and interesting busy ride. The 3 man crew made it a pleasure with a mix of Japanese and English. Scenery is so interesting and the rapids make for a fun day
It was exhilarating and the boatmen were skilful and delightful while interacting with the guests on board. Couldn’t recommend enough to both the young and old.
Good experience, guided tour mainly with Japanese but did not impact too much
Cancelled without any notification.
good experience, easy ticket redemption boats leave when the required capacity is filled up
