About

Riverside Homes at a gentle pace

The perfect river trip to get some air, grab a moment on the river and see a mixture of riverside homes, countryside and the Thames as it passes through Reading. Moving at a relaxed pace you have plenty of time for refreshments on board as you watch the wildlife pass as the boat glides along the Thames.

The trip

See the Three Bridges of Reading from the water

Our 45-minute trip takes you out of Reading, along The Warren and through the narrows. There’s river life in abundance and even the chance of seeing kingfishers and herons. Please note that on occasion if the river is flowing with a heavy stream we may need to alter the course of our river trips. The trip length will remain unchanged but the exact route may differ. This is a perfect cruise for those who fancy a taster, with plenty to see but leaving lots more for you to experience on one of our other trips. There’s a fully stocked bar onboard.

If you have any questions or queries about our cruises, please visit our FAQS page for further information.
