Testimonials

We hired a boat for 62 people and had a fantastic experience with this company. They were very reasonably priced (the best compared to all the places we found) and they did everything with excellence. Paddy who helped us was fantastic to deal with in the lead up and on the boat. The food was also delicious and so much was provided. It was a great experience for everyone - so special! Thank you!
Ruth Moore
We held a company event and customer dinner on the Elizabethan in May 2023. The whole team, both on and offboard, were very friendly and helpful, and helped to create a fantastic event which our customers really enjoyed. Particular praise to the event manager onboard, Taniel! Also, the food was excellent - surprisingly good for a mass catered event (we had 86). All in all it was an unforgettable evening - thank you team!
Stuart Guthrie-Cadge
Staff were friendly and helpful both during communication setting up the event and on the night. We had 240 guests who overall seemed to enjoy the experience. When looking for a boat to hire, in comparison Thames Boat Hire communicated much quicker and friendlier than any of the others we spoke to which is ultimately why we went with them. There were a couple minor complications along the way which overall worked out, ultimately I'd be happy to work with them to do an event again.
