Booked the cream tea cruise for my partner’s Nan’s 90th birthday. We received lovely service on board and a nice cream tea. We also really enjoyed hearing the local history. The boat was lovely, clean & warm with an outside deck to take in the sights.

A worth while trip round the harbour. Excellent guide/skipper with many anecdotes and facts about the buildings, boats and people connected to Bristol and its harbour. Nice to have such an enthusiastic local guide who is very proud of his home city.

Best money I spent on our visit to Bristol. The guys were great on the boat. The talking guide he gave while steering us round the dock was fantastic. I learnt so much and it was really easy to hear and understand. We had a little dog that travelled for free and the skippers mate even brought her a little bowl of iced water. I would 100 percent recommend this boat trip to anyone. Thanks for an excellent experience.

Brilliant way to sight see around Bristol, did the cream tea cruise. Well worth the money you get tea and coffee which is included in the price you pay, a Scone each with clotted cream and Jam along with strawberries and a couple of small cake slices to eat while taking in the views. There is a bar on board where you can purchase Alcholic and soft drinks (not included in the price of the cream tea) Was a lovely chilled couple of hours seeing the sights you even get some commentary from the captain of the local history. Crew were great and helpful, i would recommend for anyone visting Bristol.
