Salter's Steamers details...

One of the fun places to go with kids is Salter’s Steamers, offering a range of relaxing, fun and safe activities from various locations on the Upper-Thames in Oxfordshire, Berkshire and Buckinghamshire. Salter’s Steamers are one of the longest established family-run firms on the River Thames and established for over 150 years.

Family days out boating on the river are a wonderful way to explore an area and a relaxing break from the car! You can look forward to enjoying beautiful countryside, views of historic sites and wildlife.

Boat trips range from peaceful 40-minute return trips to longer journeys. Sail from Oxford to small nearby towns such as Abingdon or watch the world go by on a leisurely Lunchtime Picnic Cruise or Alice in Wonderland Cruise.

Scheduled trips operate from Oxford and other locations including Abingdon, Wallingford, Reading, Henley, Marlow and Windsor. Addresses of landing stages and other details are on the website.

For those looking for a bit more of an adventure or some light exercise, in Oxford there is a fleet of self-hire boats such as rowing boats, motorboats and punts. All are very easy to use and life jackets are available for both children and adults.

Boating on the picturesque Oxford section of the River Thames is the perfect way to escape the hustle and bustle of the busy city centre during your day out. For a special treat, why not book in advance and treat the family to the chauffeured punt service?

The season runs from April to October, when Salter’s Steamers is open daily from 9am until 6pm. Some boat trips only run on particular days and all activities are subject to weather conditions. Please telephone with any questions or for further information.
