This delightful experience provides a memorable day out for two adults. Take a scenic riverboat cruise on the Golden Slumber through Oxford on one of the busiest and most colourful stretches of the Thames. Head downstream towards Iffley village, passing the ancient Folly Bridge, Christchurch College, Meadows and the university rowing houses. This stretch (locally known as The Isis) is a particularly busy stretch of the river with rowing eights, punts, university boats and large pleasure cruisers, all coming together in a lively display of all that the river has to offer.
Your experience will begin with a warm welcome aboard the vessel where you will be greeted by your skipper who will provide you with a safety briefing before departure. Throughout your scenic cruise you will receive an informal commentary as you pass by the sights of Oxford on this fascinating stretch of river.
This experience is available Monday to Friday, subject to availability.

We were bought this as a gift. It was easy to book on line. The trip was really lovely and our skipper was just wonderful. She was both informative and a great sense of humour. Definitely recommend. One thing I would say is take some cash to tip the skipper. We didn't and I felt so bad as she made the trip so enjoyable.

It took a while to book this cruise as we could not find a date suitable until October! The whole experience was really amazing! we were only 5 people on the boat so we felt really safe. The skipper was really nice and happy to tell us all about the history of Oxfords rivers. We had a lovely time and would definitely do it again!

We were bought this river cruise as a gift, and had to postpone booking due to the summer lockdown. However the wait was worth it and we had a wonderful morning on the water on a sunny day in September. Our guide was excellent- very informative and friendly, and the route we took through Oxford was so beautiful. A really relaxing way to spend a morning - would definitely recommend! Thank you.

Thank you for your review. I am sorry to hear that you felt your boat trip wasn't very long. Having looked into this, I can see this experience is advertised as lasting 50 minutes, and I can only apologise if this was not the case. I once again thank you for your review, we greatly value customer feedback and will take your comments on board.

I received trip as a gift from my daughter but was unable to use it in the time, asked to extend it for six months, which was granted at a small cost. Went on the trip on 3rd August BRILLIANT the captain of the small craft was so charming and knowledgeable about the river, Oxford and its history, I would recommend the trip to anyone and would certainly go on the trip again, thank you.
