Actually a great experience with a multilingual guide (Naomi). Timing and guidance was well paced and genuine. The boating activity was excellent and very accessible (and entertaining). There was no end of the day pressuring or "revew begging" from the guides to leave high ratings which really highlighted their professionalism. Thanks for an amazing day.

This was by far the best Klook tour I’ve ever been on! My husband and I absolutely loved our guide, Mr. Joe. He was incredibly kind and provided clear, detailed information about the itinerary, meeting point, and drop-off location. We especially appreciated how he shared interesting history about Osaka, Kyoto, and Nara along the way.
His English was very clear, which made communication easy and enjoyable. We were also lucky enough to ride Cabin No. 5 on the Sagano Romantic Train, and we didn’t miss out on the Hozugawa River boat rafting experience either. It was truly a memorable day! Okani Mr Joe! Hope we meet again!

Our trip was really nice with a very sweet guide eiko san… Romantic train was one of the most romantic experience in kyoto. our chauffer was really sweet and gave us a comfortable ride to all locations. due to rain boat ride was cancelled but she took us around bamboo forest and temple instead of the boat ride due to bad weather. i definitely recommend this trip 💯

We booked 2 rooms wanteI This was the closest hotel to the Hozugawa River boat ride. It was beautiful. Breakfast was delicious. There is a peaceful onsen on site, but you must cover your tattoos. You can purchase tattoo covers at the desk . Be aware that they really stick and it takes a lot of time to remove the stickers. The day of our boat ride, we checked out of the hotel, & we asked if they could watch our bags at the desk while we did the boat ride. They gave us a chip to come back that same day to retrieve our bags for free . After our boat ride we took the train back to the hotel to retrieve our bags. The staff was professional and kind. The only comment that I’d give a head up on is that the beds are small. I had to get 2 rooms for my family of 4 and we all had to share beds. My family is not very big and we were fine and slept really well. But if you were a larger person, sharing a bed, it might be kind of snug. I would still rebook at this hotel in a heartbeat. 10/10

Seemless and quick check in. They get you on the boat and provide safety and instruction. Where comfortable clothing that you don’t mid getting a little splash of water on because it may happen. The scenery is breathtaking. You will end up on the other side of the river near shops with food and souvenirs as well as the bamboo forest.

Kameoka at a glance
Quick facts about Kameoka
General info
What to know before visiting Kameoka
Quick snapshot of Kameoka and what draws visitors
Kameoka is a mellow escape known for cruises, guided tours and water-based activities, with visitor demand swinging noticeably through the year. Klook bookings show a strong winter peak and a deep late-summer trough, so the rhythm of the year alternates between busy December and much quieter late summer months.
Best time to visit based on demand and prices
Klook booking data indicate demand peaks in December and is lowest in August. Prices across the year are fairly steady, with past bookings showing the priciest month as September and the most budget-friendly month typically March. If you want smaller crowds and lower-priced options, consider visiting in March or the quieter months around August and September; if you prefer the livelier peak-season atmosphere, December is the time to go. Overall, demand and price don’t move perfectly together here—December is busy without being the absolute priciest month, while September can be relatively expensive despite lower demand.
Tips for travellers from the Philippines
Most visitors here book about a week in advance, with last-minute availability often possible within a few days, so a short, well-planned trip from the Philippines works well. If you’re travelling in December’s busy period, aim to secure key activities earlier (around the typical booking lead time) to lock in plans; for off-peak months you can be more flexible and book closer to your travel dates on Klook.
