Guide To Canal Boat Cruises of Riley Green

I recently had the pleasure of taking a party of 32people on a afternoon cruise with dinner, I am still amazed at how wonderful the whole experience was the organisation was absolutely incredible, the meal was outstanding, all of my party could not praise the outstanding service enough, I will be organising another canal cruise with this company in the future, I can’t recommend this company enough, and if anyone is thinking of taking a trip on the Riley Marina Cruises don’t hesitate to book it.

Family run lovely people very helpful. Nothing is too much trouble. Had lots of fun on their party boat call Romance.

Walking along the canal was a delightful experience. The peaceful waters and picturesque surroundings provided a perfect backdrop for a leisurely stroll. The towpath was well-maintained and easy to navigate, making it accessible for all ages. Whether you’re looking to enjoy a peaceful walk, go for a jog, or simply soak in the tranquility of the waterway, the canal offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

The 9 of us were treated like royalty for an afternoon tea on cruise boat “Romance”. We were offered drinks of our choice and crisps. We were served sandwiches, amazing mini desserts and coffee or tea. The boat was tastefully decked out, scenery was beautiful as we smoothly sailed along, and the staff were wonderful. The whole experience was so therapeutic and we all thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon. Would recommend, and we’re definitely returning. Thank you Riley Canal Cruises.

It was 2019 when our sail & lunch was booked, owing to covid it was the 8th October 2021when we eventually had the experience . I must say we were very pleased with everything . All the staff were very polite , respectful ,friendly & pleasant . The barge diner was very clean & well set out. We had a three course pre booked lunch with soup, roast chicken / beef to follow with a choice of deserts . Wine , spirits , hot & cold drinks available to order . The whole meal was expertly cooked & presented everything was perfect a reflection of the skill of the catering staff and waitress attendance . The barge diner is equipped with a flushing toilet . Access onto the barge for very tall people may be a little awkward in order not to hit their head but that said just have to be a little careful. We were fortunate it was a sunny day so the views were that much better . The sail lasted around three hours sailing from the birthing mid point along the canal in both directions .

Thank you for the experience we had and would recommend the venue without exception.
