4.00Difficult to hear the guide and then it became difficult to keep up with the English. Better if he had a microphone and that he talked a little slower.
Great trip along the riger

5.00Easy to find. Fun trip down the River Thames. The Guide provided a good history of the area.
Not enough history from the skipper about Oxford, preferring to talk about himself and his children.

3.00Not enough history about Oxford or the river, Shipper more interested in telling us about himself and his family

5.00Tranquil and beautiful trip in perfect weather. Cool glasses of bottled water aboard much appreciated and our guide Joe was so friendly and entertaining with anecdotes and information along the way. So appreciated the kindness and assistance for my 92 year old father who thoroughly enjoyed being back on the river having been a rower himself many years ago. Thank you for a perfect Father’s Day afternoon. Highly recommended.
Excellent boat trip
