Bristol Packet Boat Trips offer harbour tours and river cruises with award-winning commentaries. You can take a 45-minute tour of the Harbour which is the perfect way to learn about Bristol’s fascinating history and the big reason for our '101-Must-Visit' recommendation.

Alternatively, you can also take a two-hour cream tea cruise of the harbour. Upstream trips include afternoon trips to Beeses Tea Gardens, lunch trips to Hanham, lunch trips to Beeses and day trips to Bath.

An Avon Gorge Cruise takes you downstream, sailing through the floating harbour into the Junction Lock where you will enjoy spectacular views of the Gorge and Brunel’s Suspension Bridge.

Be sure to book ahead though to suit your dates.
