Thames Boat Hire Prices - Approximate

We would then be able to suggest a suitable boat for your event, and provide you with a specified quote. Please see our Gallery for images of the variety of different vessels we are able to offer for your event.

The hire price of boats will vary between the day of the week, and the time of day you wish to hire the vessel. Most boats have a minimum hire time of 3 hours during the day, and 4 hours during the evening. For events that terminate that exceed a 3- or 4-hour cruise, additional charges per hour thereafter apply.

The capacity of our boats depends on the type of event you're hosting. For instance, a sit-down meal accommodates fewer guests compared to a disco cruise or canapé event, as each vessel has a specific seating limit to ensure comfort.
