“Hozu River Boat Tour” takes about 2 hours to go down the valley of about 16km from Kameoka to Arashiyama by a traditional boat.

It is thrilling to see the splashes of water between the giant rocks and the strange rocks. The beauty of the valley, which is colored by cherry blossoms and autumn leaves, is also exceptional.

In winter, it has a vinyl roof and an oil stove, so you don’t have to worry about the coldness.
