Mum and I went on the 2pm afternoon cruise. We both enjoyed it very much. It was lovely to experience the river from a boat. It was very relaxing and beautiful. The captain gave a good commentary and was happy to answer questions. The deckhand was also very helpful and great at making refreshments. I would highly recommend this as a great value, relaxing afternoon activity!
