Let yourself drift away while you indulge in a cream tea. There is nothing like a boat trip to explore the tranquility and beauty of river life. Add a sumptuous afternoon tea into the equation, and this becomes an outing to remember.

WHAT'S THIS ALL ABOUT?

These are small, intimate, electric cruisers, designed to silently putt-putt gently down the river via the university regatta course. Float gently past Christ Church meadows and the university college boathouses towards ancient Iffley Lock. Navigating a lock is part of any river adventure, but you can relax and let the captain sort out any dramas. Once through Iffley, you will travel on to the tranquil water meadows that surround Oxford, eventually turning around at Rose Island, a favourite destination of Lewis Carroll and Alice Liddell, to head on back to the moorings. But before then, there is the onboard tea…

TELL ME MORE

Expect a proper afternoon tea, with finger sandwiches, homemade scones with strawberry jam and clotted cream, followed by a selection of cakes, tarts, or petit fours. All you have to think about is whether to slap the cream on the scone before the jam, or after. If you want to take any other drinks with you, they can be purchased at the departure point. This is a very bucolic hour and a half through some of the most beautiful parts of Oxford. You will be entertained with some interesting tales from the riverbank (not too many, just enough) as you watch out for wildlife and engage with nature.

The cruiser comes complete with an awning and tables for tea, so don’t stress about the weather or where to put the scones, just engage with the water.

Remember ‘Mole,’ the small hero from ‘Wind in the Willows,’ who was so enamoured by the romance of the river he could only hold up his fore-paws and gasp, ‘Oh my! Oh my! Oh my!’
