We had a wonderful day out in Adventurer. This was a 70th birthday present for my dad and the whole family including our skipper Boswell 🐶 would highly recommend this fun activity. The boat was clean and had everything we needed. As beginners we took a simpler route and were well instructed both before our booking and on the day. We are hoping to make this an annual family day.

Just come off a weeks trip re-exploring the Nene! Traveled up from March and got as far to just beyond Wadenhoe. Real shame the Kings Head is closed. Already booked two weeks for next year....just see where that will take us. Regarding Fox Narrow Boats, I can not recommend them highly enough. The service and boats they offer are second to none! If you want to get out on the water, try them!

Had a lovely trip along the river. We live along the river and it was so lovely, learning a lot of the history from the man driving. Highly recommend

Super 4 day trip from March to Ely and back on Platinum Fox! Super personal and friendly service before and during. Nothing too much for this business! Thanks so much - we will be back and will recommend!

Brilliant day on the river on a day boat hire. All the staff were so friendly and welcoming and boat was spotless. We left at 9.30 and returned at 6pm, the time just flew by cruising along the river. We navigated the lock at Marmont Priory and on to Outwell Basin to moor for picnic lunch (provided and ready on the boat from Graze by Gem - lovely, thank you) then came back. Even found a Kingfisher watching us sail back into March. Wonderful day, great boat and hire company, highly recommend - thank you 👍

We have just finished a three night experience on Silver Fox. The boat itself was exceptionally clean and very well maintained. The staff are incredibly friendly and cant do enough to make your experience even more enjoyable. We managed to get up to Ely, great way to travel. Both lock keepers at Denver and Salters Lode were friendly and helpful in guiding us through the locks. Highly recommend this journey, great pubs on the way. And lots to see.
