River Cruises at Avon Boating
River Cruises
Enjoy a cruise aboard one of our traditional Edwardian passenger launches. Our Boats, originally from the Lake District and Loch Lommond represent some of the finest boat building of the Edwardian Era. Our Boats are lovingly maintained to ensure that you enjoy the boat, just as much as you enjoy the River.
Our Launches are available for Private Charter and Public Cruises and operate from Late March to Late October...
Electric Powered Boats
Our boats are electric powered, quiet and vibration free for a more enjoyable experience for all onboard. Our boats are zero emission and are therefore kinder to the river and its wonderful ecosystem.

Notes
Avon Boating Ltd is an outdoor visitor attraction. At no point do the general public enter a building. River bank is clearly marked.
The general public are assisted in entering any water craft by trained staff members. Due to the nature of our boats we are unable to take wheel chairs aboard any of our water craft. Any body with the ability to leave their chair is assisted safely into the water craft.
