Enjoy this relaxing cruise on the River Thames in Oxford and indulge in an afternoon tea served aboard!

This relaxing afternoon cruise sails downstream from Folly Bridge taking in the best-known reach of the River Thames in Oxford. Traveling down the University Regatta course, you'll pass Christ Church Meadows, the University College Boat Houses, and other landmarks on your way to Iffley lock. This is often a busy and vibrant section of the river where training rowing crews, punts, and pleasure boats jostle for river space in a wonderful display of Oxford at play. Passing through the lock at Iffley is an experience in itself. The river scenery and fascinating buildings combine to form a picture-perfect location.

Beyond Iffley, you'll travel into the tranquil water meadows that surround Oxford and there will be abundant opportunities to spot wildlife amongst the green banks and overhanging willows. Turn for home at Rose Island, a favorite destination of Lewis Carroll and Alice Liddell on their river journeys. Aboard the boat, you will be served an indulgent afternoon tea provided by the renowned riverside restaurant, The Folly.
