Good to know
- Combine the two: take the Sagano Romantic Train from Arashiyama to Kameoka, then ride the Hozugawa boats back down the gorge.
- The boat ride through the Hozu Gorge takes about two hours and ends in Arashiyama. Bring a light jacket, as you may get splashed.
- Yunohana Onsen in the hills of Kameoka is a quiet hot-spring stay close to Kyoto.
