General information
Deal overview
All of these things are what make boat trips on the River Thames a lasting memory for children. We’ve got them all and more here in Richmond upon Thames! The current will take you downstream towards Kew, or you can go against it and row past Twickenham.
What could be better than taking the family for a day out on the Thames? We are a boating company based at Richmond Bridge that has a whole fleet of family-sized rowing skiffs available for hire.
The biggest of our boats can take eight people, but the group must contain adults as well as children. Find our adults’ price to organise a trip for all the family to enjoy.
All children will be given a life jacket to wear while on the boat (they can take it off if you stop for refreshments or a picnic) and adults can request one too. We will talk you through safety and the tide times before you leave. Allowing for seasonal variations, the tide is suitable for boating for about five hours per day.
Wholesome family fun was never so easy to find!
