Boat Cruise to Iffley Lock (Oxford)

Summer has finally arrived in the UK, with temperatures in the late 20's this week.

We decided to do a 40 minute boat cruise from the Folly Bridge in Oxford to Iffley Lock and back. We discovered Salters Steamers a boat cruise company who charge 7.50 GBP, compared to the Oxford Boat Company who charge 12 GBP for the same trip. They offer cruises on the hour so we boarded the 16:30 cruise. It was a medium sized boat, probably for about 20 people. We went down the Thames River and saw the university boat houses, there were also a lot of children playing in the river.The boat went along Christ Church Meadow and we saw a lot of parked canal boats. A pleasant boat cruise.
