Discover Oxford with a sightseeing river cruise. Choose between the day or evening, both showcasing the beauty of Oxford.
Day Sightseeing River Cruise
We take in a fascinating stretch of River as we cruise down the university regatta course towards quaint Iffley village. We pass ancient Folly Bridge, Christchurch College and Meadows, and the university rowing houses. This is one of the busiest and most colourful stretches of the Thames (the stretch locally known as The Isis). Rowing eights, punts, university boats, and large pleasure cruisers come together in a lively display of all that the river has to offer. Setting out on this small group cruise aboard our elegant electric river boats, your knowledgeable skipper will be on hand to answer any questions throughout your journey.
Evening Sightseeing River Cruise with a Cocktail
Setting sail in an Edwardian River Launch just as the sun is waning in the sky, you can experience the wonderful changing light and distinctive calm of evening on the water, cocktail in hand. Choose from a selection of cocktails freshly prepared by skilled bartenders at The Folly.
The cruise is a classic tour of the River Thames as it meanders around Oxford. Enjoy the tranquillity as you gently drift past Christ Church meadows, and experience the serenity of the river winding down as we pass the university boathouses.
Further drinks can be purchased and enjoyed in The Folly bar.
