The Main Event

This charming 45-minute river tour in Shropshire offers stunning views along the River Severn, then when you’re finished you get to enjoy a lovey afternoon tea!

Take a ride on a 60-person, three-deck, modern passenger ship on the River Severn close to Shrewsbury with retractable sides and a roof. On your travels, take in attractions like the Welsh Bridge, Theatre Severn, Shrewsbury Castle, and St. Chad's Church.

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!

All drinks on board the boat must be purchased yourself.

  • River cruise and afternoon tea

    Very good value. Nice cruise down the river and back for 45 mins with an interesting commentary. Good selection of cakes and sandwiches at a local cafe around 10 mins walk from the boat. Lovely gift idea.

  • Family Trip

    The crew were very accommodating as we had a pushchair to store. We had great view drinks served onboard. Could have done with the option of going indoors as it was a very cold windy day but was only 1 hour which was great.

  • Weather didn't put us off.

    Unfortunately a very wet day but an interesting river cruise with good commentary about Shrewsbury and nice scenery. Afternoon Tea at the Loopy Shrew, a surprise boutique eatery, lovely decoration and friendly service, huge pot of tea and filling food. A lovely birthday gift and would be happy to do it again on a sunny day.

    Short walk to the tea at the Loopy Shrew which was fabulous and covered the allergies of a guest without any fuss. All in all a great trip
