Boat Trips on the Thames

Established in 1973 our family business has grown from simple roots when we had one small open launch ferrying people between Caversham in Reading and Mapledurham. These days we have a diverse fleet of river boats that offer both a scheduled tripping service and private charter.

The view from our boats changes every day as the river ebbs and flows, seasons change and people glide by. We have Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire on our door step with amazing open countryside, picture postcard villages and no shortage of photo opportunities, it is hard not to fall in love with what we do, we are passionate about The River Thames!
