Fushimi Jikkokubune
  • Viewing cherry blossoms along the Fushimi Jikkokubune River can be done by walking or taking a boat, and in the pink flower rain, it is like stepping into a spring scroll.
  • Fushimi Momoyama Castle is surrounded by a large number of cherry blossoms, and the vermilion castle tower and the sea of flowers complement each other, making it a popular cherry blossom viewing spot in Kyoto.
  • The cherry blossoms of the Kyoto Yawata Sewaritei extend in rows, and walking along the embankment is like being in a dreamy cherry blossom tunnel.
  • The water color of the Kizugawa River and the reflection of cherry blossoms are intertwined, and the petals flutter in the breeze, creating a rich and charming picture.
  • Ninna-ji Temple, a World Heritage Site, is famous for its Omuro cherry blossoms and is the last blooming chapter of the Kyoto cherry blossom season.
  • The low and lush Omuro cherry blossoms and the five-storied pagoda frame the same picture, showing the most representative scenery of the ancient capital in spring.

What to expect

* Kyoto Cherry Blossom Day Trip: Capture Spring in Your Camera~ This is a relaxing and visually stunning Kyoto cherry blossom route, taking you through lesser-known tranquil spots and classic famous places in one go, allowing you to collect Kyoto's gentlest spring in a single day 🌸

  • The trip starts from Kyoto Fushimi. The following are 2-choose-1 attractions: Visit the Fushimi Jikkokubune River Bank for cherry blossom viewing (Note: Excluding boat tickets, please pay for the boat tickets yourself. During the cherry blossom season, queuing is required for non-reserved tickets, and guests with reserved tickets need to arrive at the boarding point 20 minutes in advance). Stroll along the river, with cherry blossoms and early spring willows lining the banks, and pink and white petals falling in the breeze. It has less hustle and bustle of the city and more of a life atmosphere: some people sketching, some people sitting and chatting, the air is filled with a slower pace. If you do not choose to take a boat to enjoy the cherry blossoms on the Fushimi Jikkokubune, you can also enjoy the cherry blossoms at Fushimi Momoyama Castle. This is one of the most popular attractions for local citizens and tourists during the spring cherry blossom season in Kyoto
  • Then head to the Seiwari-tei in Yawata City, Kyoto. It is famous for its rows of blooming Somei Yoshino cherry trees, extending along the levee to form a romantic cherry blossom tunnel. The river reflects the cherry blossoms and the blue sky. When the breeze blows, the petals fall. It is a favorite spot for photography enthusiasts and the most spring-like place of the year.
  • The last stop of the trip is a must-visit cherry blossom spot in Kyoto - the World Cultural Heritage Site, Ninna-ji Temple (admission fee is at your own expense). The Omuro cherry blossoms here are the last to bloom in Kyoto. The trees are only about 1 to 2 meters high, so you can enjoy the blooming flower sea up close without looking up. The five-storied pagoda stands quietly among the cherry blossoms. The ancient temple, the sea of flowers and the spring light intertwine to form the most representative picture of the Kyoto cherry blossom season.
  • From the secret riverbank to the ancient temple, this day leaves you with the softest spring in Kyoto 🌸~

Review for: English-speaking tour guide (experience not included)

I had such a great experience booking through Klook, and it was made even more special because of our guide, Ms.Mia, She was incredibly friendly, professional, and knowledgeable throughout the entire tour. Mia explained everything clearly and made sure everyone felt comfortable and included. You can really tell she’s passionate about what she does—she shared interesting insights and stories that made the experience much more meaningful. She was also very attentive, always checking if we were okay and making sure everything ran smoothly. Because of her, the whole trip felt well-organized and stress-free. Highly recommend this tour, especially if you get Mia as your guide. Thank you for making the experience memorable!

I'm not sure if anyone has experienced what we went through for this tour but here's my say in my experience, we'll start with the bus we were picked up in. it was a very small bus now I understand that there were only 20 of us but I had to squeeze into my seat where the wheel is I cannot imagine if it was a tall person, I'm 150cm and it was uncomfortable for me. Next since this experience was spilt between those who wanted to ride the boat and those who were going to visit Momoyama castle we had the misfortune of not being able to get into the castle because it was closed. How is it possible for a tour group to not know the opening dates for the castle they were bringing people to is beyond me, so you can imagine the disappointment my group was when we were stranded there while our tour guide was trying to find answers. So I recommend we take some photos and try to salvage whatever feel we can get and make way back to the boat. Guess what, the tickets for the boat was out of stock.

Review for: Chinese-speaking tour guide (excluding experience fees)

On March 28, we participated in the Kyoto: Fushimi Momoyama Castle & Jikkokubune Cherry Blossom Viewing Day Tour. We were fortunate to catch the cherry blossoms in full bloom. Although we couldn't get tickets for the Jikkokubune boat, walking along the river and admiring the cherry blossoms up close was still incredibly beautiful. Our tour guide, Mia, was very professional, taking care of every traveler, especially the elderly, with great attention to detail. She even answered other questions about traveling in Osaka. She deserves a five-star rating! 👍👍

Review for: Chinese-speaking tour guide (excluding experience fees)

The meeting point was quite a walk from the pick-up location, and I overheard some foreign group members asking if it was a walking tour. One of the planned activities was the Jikkokubune boat ride, but when we arrived, the tickets were already sold out. The tour guide should have known this is a common occurrence and booked the tickets for us! We then had to go to Momoyama Castle, but it turned out to be closed. The tour guide seemed unfamiliar with the local situation. At this point, two groups of foreign tourists were very unhappy and decided to leave the tour! The tour guide didn't introduce any of the attractions or their history; they just dropped us off and told us the meeting time! Fortunately, the cherry blossoms at the attractions were in full bloom and absolutely beautiful!

Review for: English-speaking tour guide (experience not included)

It was our guide’s first tour, he was friendly and kind. We consider he could have provided more information (recommendation of places to have lunch, information about the area, etc.). Ninnaji Temple is on the Northern part of Kyoto and it’s one of the latest areas to bloom so it didn’t make a lot of sense to be on the Southern area for the boat ride and the walk where the sakura are in full bloom and then move to the other side of the city where the sakuras will still take some time. It is a nice opportunity to get to know other places in Kyoto.
