Daglig sightseeing bådsejlads i York

Wonderful cruise well worth money very informative and clean boat

Lovely cruise along the Ouse. A nice 1 hour journey and a great way to see some of the sights of York and hear some history and stories about the city from the captain and guide. Nice bar option on board so a wee drink and some snacks available for your journey and the boat was clean and so were the on board toilets. Look out for the cats on the windowsills and roof on your way back.

Went on the boat cruise this week with my family as a very pleasant was to kill some time. Had to queue for a while to get on in the blistering sun as no real shade available but the process of getting on was very smooth. We sat indoors due to the heat, had a few drinks from the bar (my husband said the fruit cider was very nice!) and enjoyed the pleasant views. Being honest, you don’t see much in terms of sights but it’s beautiful riverside scenery, especially on such a sunny day. We couldn’t hear all the commentary but I’m not complaining- they stated clearly at the beginning that you could request if you wanted the volume up. We were happy with the wee snippets we heard and just enjoying the views as a family. Maybe a wee shade pricey for the duration but overall very enjoyable way to spend a sunny hour in York!

Money wasted. Useless navigation along the Ouse River. Nothing about the monuments and the historic center. Only bridges and houseboats. Misleading title: panoramic cruise of the city. Dishonest, this title reflects nothing of the content.

The cruise was ok but basically up and down the River. The annoying bit was the commentary in a very annoying voice.

A nice relaxing way to start our day. Not a great deal of sights to see along the route though the commentator did his best to make it interesting

Andy was our skipper and he was welcoming, engaging, and knowledgeable about the surrounding area of York. He was very funny! The team was also kind, even providing water for the dogs traveling on the boat.

A pleasant cruise along the River House let down by the incessant chatter over a poor microphone by the tour guide. Please give your poor audience a break.

Sit on top deck, if weather permits, great views and commentary from the skipper on the day, refreshments available.

Things started well, boarding was smooth and the staff were very friendly. After that it went downhill. We went to collect our fish and chips which were basically in a box in a back. No idea how long they had been there for. The boxes were swimming in grease underneath. Part of our order was missing and the staff member said they would ring the chip shop to get the missing parts delivered before we set off. We went up to the top deck to eat. The fish wasn't white, more cream or pale brown, a sure sign it has been frozen at least once if not multiple times. The batter was soggy. There's no real provisions to eat upstairs and owing to the greasy box you daren't put it on your knee. The missing items arrived after those that could eat had finished their males and put the empty boxes in the bin. Quite what I was going to do with a carton of peas at that point is anybodys guess. The tour set off and the commentary was barely audible, got every other word and the odd sentence. Nobody could hear so people just talked amongst themselves which made the commentary even harder to hear. What we did catch was comical. The "captain" Josh did it almost in a style of a bingo caller. There's really not much to see on the tour, the highlight being told if you look to the right you can see the roof of the Railway Museum. Sure it was the best looking corrugated roof I saw all day but wasn't noteworthy. You'll get to see lots of bushes by the river bank. The patrons of the pubs on the riverside are actually more entertaining. So all in all a disappointment. A boring venture up and down a river with inaudible and at times farcical commentary coupled with the worst fish and chips I've ever had.
