What to Expect...

This 1-hour river cruise combines a classic British meal with a scenic journey along the River Ouse through historic York. Departing from King's Staith in the city centre, you'll receive freshly wrapped fish and chips from award-winning Mr Chippy as you board, then glide past verdant countryside and city landmarks while the captain shares live commentary on York's history.

The cruise is suitable for adults and children, though it's not wheelchair accessible. An onboard bar offers a range of drinks and snacks available to purchase throughout the trip, and each meal comes with a complimentary sachet of ketchup or tartar sauce.

The route takes you from King's Staith out into the countryside before looping back to the city centre. Live commentary from the captain brings York's riverside history to life as you eat, and the full circuit gives you views of both rural stretches and historic city landmarks from the water.
