Henley Regatta was first held in 1839 and has been held annually ever since, except during the two World Wars. Originally staged by the Mayor and people of Henley as a public attraction, with a fair and other amusement, the emphasis rapidly changed so that competitive amateur rowing became its main purpose.  Without a doubt, the best way to enjoy the Henley Regatta is from the river and chartering a boat with River Thames Charters will ensure your Henley Regatta experience is a memorable one.

Henley Regatta Boat Hire / Charters

For 2011 Henley Regatta, River Thames Charters has introduced by popular demand, a special 2 or 4 hour charter aboard Sea Saga. Many of their clients wish to soak up the atmosphere of the Regatta for just a few hours and this new charter enables up to 12 guests to enjoy a cruise of the Regatta course for only £500 for 2 hours and £1000 for 4 hours. The price remains the same whether 1 or 12 guests charter the boat. A welcome drink is included in the price, although Champagne and canapes can also be provided at an additional cost. We also welcome you to bring your own food and/or drinks onboard.

Alternatively, you could have a full day onboard Sea Saga, fully catered with complimentary drinks throughout your cruise from only £200 per person.

Many bookings have already been taken for 2011, so call now to book your charter!
