Being such a watery city, what better way to explore it than by boat. Packet offers various tours on the city's waterways in one of three boats - the historic Narrowboat Redshank, The Tower Belle and the Flower of Bristol. You can either go on a one hour tour around the historic harbour, or take a trip as far afield as the city of Bath, taking in Beese's Tea Garden and the Chequers Inn on the way. Alternatively, you can choose the dramatic scenery of the Avon Gorge Cruise or become a salty sea-dog on their evening tours of dockside pubs! Advance booking for these popular tours (from March-October and with extra trips during school holidays) is recommended and the full timetable is to be found on their website. There is no disabled access as such, but assistance can be given on and off the boats.
