A very infornative and interesting boat trip on the Sabrina, then a delicious afternoon tea which was plentiful. A lovely treat.
Really enjoyed this river cruise. It was well organised and very efficient. Great that they recognised those that had prebooked and called them on first with a reserved table save you having to scramble for a seat. It was also made special because we had lovely weather too.
My only small criticism is that it was too short. By the time we'd settled and got started it was time to head back and could have been a bit of an announcement for directions for those that had also booked afternoon tea
The cruise down the river was 45min all in but the journey was not very far just from the English bridge to the Welsh commenting was very good and informative we had a good ten min walk after to the wine bar st Julian’s for the afternoon tea it was ok but wouldn’t rave over it staff were lovely
Interesting river cruise with very helpful staff.
Exceptional afternoon tea, lovely cafe and staff
We really enjoyed our Afternoon Tea Cruise on the River Severn at Shrewsbury. On arrival at the Sabrina boat, the crew welcomed us to our pre allocated seats on the top deck and we were offered drinks/snacks (at extra cost) to enjoy during the trip. This section of the river loops around the City and is very scenic and during the trip the pilot pointed out and gave us a history of the many places of interest. We disembarked and walked for around 10 minutes to the St Vincent restaurant who provided a substantial and delicious afternoon tea. I particularly appreciated the gluten- and lactose-free food they presented me with. Altogether a very enjoyable experience which I would not hesitate to recommend.
What a lovely experience.
Relaxing river cruise, with local history. Everyone well looked after by the friendly staff.
A 10 minute walk to a beautiful bar we thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon tea, well looked after again.
What a great gift , will definitely do it again,
We had a lovely time on the river cruise with interesting/ amusing commentary. Nice combination with afternoon tea.
