Bristol Packet Boat Rides

There are lots of different Bristol Packet Boat Rides to choose from, depending on how long you wish to go for and which additions to the trip you'd like most! The boats are generally open topped, with covered sections.

The City Docks Tour, departing either from the Wapping Wharf ss Great Britain or Packet Pontoon Watershed, is a fun 45 minute jaunt around the Floating Harbour with informed historical commentary. It's great for families as being short even the ones too young to hear the commentary (bad luck, it can be quite amusing!) will enjoy the sights and sensations for that long.
