We have four unique boats all of which have a bar, WC and facilities for playing music from a phone / MP3 Player as standard. We can provide reception drinks or a range of buffet catering options ready for your guests as they board.

We can collect your passengers from any landing stage around Bristol Harbour and provide a variety of cruises ranging from 1-4hrs in length. Take a round trip, or transport your guests in comfort and style between Harbourside locations as they enjoy a glass of chilled prosecco on the way!
