PLEASE NOTE - The Environment Agency will be closing a long stretch of the river from 01/10/2021 to 31/03/2022 for locks maintenance. We will resume our Experience in April 2022.

Private Group Tour - The River Thames is full of life, nature, people, architecture, history. Only from a boat you can fully appreciate the beauty of the river and capture the essence of life along it's riverbank. Join us for this quintessentially British Experience. Disconnect from work, from the news, from the traffic. Relax and adapt to the pace of life on the river. Reconnect with those around you by sharing quality time.

Skipper, diesel, tea, coffees, snacks, soft drinks and a light lunch are all included.  The barge is beautiful, very spacious, well maintained, clean and comfortable and you will be able to use all parts of the boat. 

About This Deal

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Pass By: Windsor Castle, Castle Hill, Windsor SL4 1PD England

Your tour will start just a stone's throw away from Windsor Castle and we will explore the river Thames going upstream up to Dorney Lake.

Stop At: Boveney Church, Boveney lock, Dorney England

St Mary’s, Boveney, nestling on the banks of the Thames, almost within sight of Eton College but a world away in a small remote hamlet, was saved by the Friends in June 1983.

The building is listed Grade I despite its low-key exterior. What tips it into that highest of all listing categories is the remarkable vernacular interior with 18th and 19th Century fittings, its romantic location adjacent to the Thames and its very early origins in the 12th century.

The church was built to serve the bargemen, or bargees as they were called, who plied their trade on the river, although the quay immediately adjacent is long lost. Outside you will notice the little slivers of flint pressed into the mortar coursing lines – this is a partly decorative, partly functional technique known as galletting.

Duration: 30 minutes

Pass By: Dorney Lake, Eton College Rowing Centre, Off Court Lane, Dorney SL4 6QP England

Nestled within picturesque Berkshire countryside between Windsor & Maidenhead, yet still just 20 minutes from London, Heathrow with direct links to M4 J7 and A404/M40, come and escape the hustle and bustle. Business or pleasure, our wide range of flexible, modern event spaces each with stunning views over the 400 acres of parkland, grounds and world-famous rowing course; the perfect setting for any event.
