Have Fun on the Water with Eco-friendly GoBoat

With more people staying in the UK this summer, more and more people are looking for fun stuff to do. Whether you are looking for a day out with your mates or some thing different to do with the children, eco-friendly boat company, GoBoat, offers the perfect day out where you can enjoy a floating picnic and some fabulous water-based views of some of London's iconic areas.

The family friendly self-drive boating experience offers guests one, two or three hour trips on its electric picnic boats seven days a week, with booking starting from 9 AM. 

Guests will enjoy a leisurely cruise, with the boats travelling at speeds of 4mph, and take in some of London’s most impressive views including Hampton Court Palace (Kingston) and Little Venice and Camden Lock (Paddington).
 
Groups of up to eight can board each boat and the experience is both dog and child friendly with life jackets and buoyancy aids provided. No prior boating knowledge is necessary, with staff giving a full tutorial before setting sail, meaning it’s something for the whole family to enjoy.

Just choose a Captain (you can even order them a hat as part of the booking process) and practice your pirate speak. Rain forecast? No worries - there are brollies on board and GoBoat operates in all but the worst weather.

The boat has a built in table -I've got a trip planned (GIFTED) with some of my friends and cannot wait to see the picnic this bunch of foodies can create for us to eat on our adventure. We are heading to Kingston upon Thames where my husband once worked on a prestigious project helping to restore parts of this historic building. He also managed to ruin his knee so there will be many piratey peg leg jokes I would imagine!

I'll be sharing my experience here and on my brand new madmumof7_ Tik Tok account as well as Insta obvs!
