What else is on at Oxford River Cruises?

What to do on an evening in Oxford?

There's something rather serene and lovely about this evening cruise in Oxford.

As you set sail in a 'Gentleman's Edwardian River Launch' just as the sun is waning, experience that wonderful changing light and that distinctive calm of evening on the water. It's a moment you can really enjoy away from the hustle and bustle of modern life.

The cruise is a classic tour of the river Thames as it meanders around Oxford. And as a reminder of that educational and sporting heritage, you'll drift gently past the university boat houses, as well as other delightful corners such as Christchurch Meadows.

Oh and we shouldn't forget that your choice of cocktail will be served on board to get this rather genteel party started.
