Who knew the Thames could be so peaceful? The scenery was like a beautiful painting. The trip and the picnic lunch were fantastic. Enjoyable all the way .

This was a perfect river boat cruise helped by being a lovely sunny day with just a small group. The picnic was exceptional presented in a wicker basket which added to the experience. The cruise was very scenic and we loved going through Osney Lock. I believe it was Duncan and Will ? sorry if I've got your names wrong but they were both very informative and made us feel very relaxed during the trip. Also a special mention to the staff at the Folly Restaurant who were very welcoming and took our drinks order and bought out to us as we sat by the river before we set off. I would highly recommend this trip as a perfect way to spend the day in Oxford.

The first half of the cruise was a bit uninteresting, but the second half through the punting area and college views was lovely. Our Skipper was cheery and provided interesting information.
