Please allow plenty of time for your journey and check for any potential road closures or train delays in advance, as we cannot offer refunds or reschedules for missed trips.

We’re unable to offer refunds or reschedules due to illness; however, our tickets aren’t name-specific, so you’re welcome to pass them to a friend or relative to enjoy the experience.

Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate pregnant passengers or those with heart or back conditions.

You may request a date or time change with a minimum of 7 days’ notice and all alterations are subject to a £35.00 administration fee per individual bookings and a £100.00 administration fee per boat for private hire/charter bookings.

If your trip is affected by the Minimum Passenger Policy (MPN), we will contact you the day before to offer an alternative time or a full refund for card payments.
