The philosophy behind an Edward Elgar river boat cruise is a stress-free and convenient experience from start to finish. The boat crew will help to make your stay as enjoyable as possible.

The Captain is responsible for piloting the boat but also provides commentary and useful information as the journey unfolds. An on-board chef cooks up three delicious meals daily, so you don't have to do a thing.

The restaurant is a bright space where everyone can gather for meals together and enjoy fabulous views through large windows. Maybe pop into the bar after dinner and make the most of the wide range of drinks and spirits included in your package, watching the free live entertainment or taking part in games and quizzes provided. The upper viewing deck is a glorious spot to savour the beautiful riverscape and watch the world go by.
