Fun trip in a motor boat along the river. The 25 mins goes quickly so maybe a little expensive for just two people, but enjoyable none the less

Got a rowing boat out, 15 quid for 45 minutes, had a great time. Tip: knowing how to row helps immensely, and thankfully one in our party did :D

We went for a 2 hour trip and the time flew by! The captain was knowledgeable and very entertaining, as was the steward who couldn't have been more helpful. The views were incredible, we saw lots of wildlife and I would definitely recommend

Hired a motor boat £25 for 25 minutes, also have to give a £20 deposit which you get back on return if your not late ect. Was lovely to go up the river, my 3 children (12,10,8) loved it too

Met with family on sunday 30th Aug & my hsband took kids/grandkids out on the river curtesy of hire company Chester Boats. Kids throughly loved being out on the River Dee, but us adults were absolutely aghast at the hygiene regime or rather lack of as watched the guys as they wiped down the boats (& childrens life jackets) with dirty, disgusting looking rags.......I was sat on seats watching as they wiped boat after boat with the same rags. As soon as my family got off their boat I smothered their hands in sanatising gel. Chester Boats you really need to relook at your hygiene because it is sorely

We had a fantastic time with Chester Boat Hire when we took one of their short cruises on the river Dee. Lucky for us it was a beautiful sunny day just perfect for a trip along the river. The captain of the boat 🛥 gave an Informative description of some of the more interesting places we passed by. The trip is not very far as the boat goes along the river until it has to turn to come back. I would definitely recommend this river trip.

Our 30 minute cruise was a great way to see parts of Chester which we would never have seen otherwise. The staff were very polite and helpful and the boat was reasonably comfortable. Very enjoyable!

We went for the half hour cruise as we didn't have time for the longer 2 hour one. Pleasant sail along the River with a very informative commentary. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. Can definitely recommend this cruise, and will be returning in the future for the longer trip.
