Suitable for both adults and kids, there are several opportunities to capture beautiful pictures and listen to the onboard commentary from a qualified local guide emphasising places of interest and local monuments.
Once the tour is complete, you take a short walk to a nearby restaurant for your traditional afternoon tea!

We thoroughly enjoyed our boat ride round Shrewsbury and the informative and witty commentary. Afternoon tea at St Vincent’s was delicious and exceeded our expectations.

Highly recommend this, from the moment of arriving, we realised how well organised they were, we had joind the queue ahead of our time slot and once the boat arrived from the previous trip, the guy advised everyone that those with a reservation booking would be called first and invited to board and a table had already been allocated for you, on the table were laminated directions to the cafe where we would be having afternoon tea. The 45 minute boat trip was very relaxing and we had commentation on items of interest, drinks were also avaible to purchase. The St Vincent cafe was again very well organised, a beautiful selection of sandwiches and cakes with tea/coffee, super friendly staff

Easy to redeem our voucher and arrange a time. Easy to park nearby and not far to walk. Lovely, interesting cruise for 45 minutes, followed by a short walk to the restaurant for Afternoon Tea. Beautiful food, lovely ambience and great service. Too much to eat so the remainder was wrapped up and we brought it home. Beautiful sandwiches, tasty fish taco, scone with clotted cream and a selection of cakes. Wonderful!
