Boat Tour Experiences

There are few experiences more exhilarating than climbing aboard a boat and heading out onto the water, whether sailing across the vast sea or cruising down a river. From one-person canoes to giant tall ships, we have a range of UK boat rides and experience gifts to suit everyone.

If you know someone who likes getting active then they’ll love our different canoeing and kayaking experience days, paddling along some of the UK’s most scenic rivers. If adrenalin-pumping activities are more their thing, then opt for a gift with a bit more velocity, such as a high-powered James Bond style RIB ride. These thrilling excursions give the best of both worlds, enjoying fantastic scenery while satisfying a need for speed!

For a more relaxing boat trip, how about a punting experience through historic Oxford to admire the impressive English Gothic and Gothic Revival architecture? Enjoy a leisurely sightseeing cruise on the Thames, or have a go at steering a narrowboat in Lancashire. For those who have always wanted to have a go at traditional sailing, then they can embark on one of our yacht or catamaran experiences and hoist the sales while marvelling at Great Britain’s spectacular shorelines.

If luxury is their coveted way of life, then unwind on a sleek, stylish yacht as it drops anchor off the coast and be treated to a sumptuous dinner and bottle of bubbly from a dedicated crew. If their idea of an adventure is wrapped up in tales of Peter Pan and Captain Hook, then why not send them on a voyage on a magnificent tall ship along Dorset’s dramatic Jurassic Coast, an experience that will inspire all generations.

If you’re looking for the ultimate experience gift for a foodie, then why not choose one of our delightful cruises that include a delicious lunch, afternoon tea or dinner. Treat that friend or family member to a meal with picturesque moving scenery to celebrate a special occasion or woo a date with a romantic dinner for two as the sun sets across the water.

Aquatic adventures and boat tours make fantastic experience gifts for all occasions, sure to create memories to last a lifetime. From wildlife cruises in Inverness to yacht sailing in Hampshire, there are boating days out across the UK for all regions and recipients.
