Oxford Experience Boat Cruise
What your day looks like
We take in a fascinating stretch of River as we cruise down the university regatta course towards quaint Iffley village. We pass ancient Folly Bridge, Christchurch College and Meadows and the university rowing houses. This is one of the busiest and most colorful stretches of the Thames (the stretch locally known as The Isis). Rowing eights, punts, university boats and large pleasure cruisers come together in a lively display of all that the river has to offer. Due to the popularity of this cruise and limited capacity, we strongly recommend booking in advance. This cruise operates between April and October.

What travelers are saying
This was an enjoyable cruise for the afternoon and we enjoyed our guide. It is important to note that you don't see much of Oxford since the river doesn't flow through the center of the city or campus. The scenery did not feel that special. Doing the options with tea or champagne might make the cruise more of an "experience."
