Well worth the money. - What a great trip. We took the hour and a half cruise with lunch included. Informative, witty, commentary from the Captain. Food was lovely, well cooked, good selection. Gorgeous old boat, beautiful scenery. The Captain pointed out points of interest and historical facts. You can sit inside downstairs or upstairs or undercover at the back.
All the staff were very helpful and friendly. Very reasonable price for the experience.

Great experience - Two standouts - the captain’s commentary and great views of the Derwent. The captain’s wit, details and personal reflection made this a memorable trip

Informative - The skipper was very informative and we learnt a lot. The cost was very reasonable. The boat could really do with a make over, but I did like how traditional it was.
