Amazing addition to our stay in Bristol. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff who helped us as we weren't confident what we wanted to do. Very patient. It was a lovely way to get around the centre of Bristol and to the attractions. A little tricky to find out times and stops on the day although we were up early so ghat would be why!. Perhaps some boards on the quays/railings with that days timings would help. Ferry started around 10 in the morning. Winter timings due.

I really enjoyed this, though it was labeled as a tour and no one explained what we were looking at along the way. It would have been great to hear even just a few fun facts or bits of history about Bristol to add some context. That said, the staff were very friendly and welcoming, which made the experience enjoyable overall. Neat to see all the different kinds of boats! Especially this beauty. It’s a beautiful way to see the river.

I only found out about the harbour ferry's on the way to Bristol. We used this service to hop on and off and make a full day out with the SS Great Britain, M, shed, lunch and walks. On the way back the lady I belive she was called (madeline) who works on the ferry, Madeline was amazing she helped with my ticket enquiry and was handing our great local knolledge to the passngers on board. We are now returning our return trip as we know theres more to see and do. I

We wanted to catch the ferry into the city centre. I didn't think I would be able to get aboard as I have trouble with my arthritic knees and mobility. The lovely ferry pilot and equally lovely young lady helped me to climb aboard. Thank you so much. I really enjoyed my trip.

We did the "Thirsty Thursday" cruise on the "Mathilda". Excellent experience. Very friendly crew, nice clean boat. 90 minutes of seeing Bristol from the water, very enjoyable and drink prices are moderate. Highly recommended!
