Living by the Thames, we have seen the Spirit of Chartwell go past many a time and wondered what it would be like. So this summer we took the plunge and booked ourselves a day trip. Unfortunately the experience did not start well, with a lady on the phone in customer services, not seeming to understand the concepts of customer... More

I took this cruise in august last year and forgot to give a review. It was an absolutely a amazing suprise and the level of service is quite good. We had a nice table to our selves and it was truly an amazing time and would recommend to any one. The food is fresh and well tasty and the vessel... More

I went on line in April 2011 and booked a cruise and two night accommodation on the ‘Spirit of Chartwell’ for April 2012. This booking was intended as a surprise for my wife for a significant birthday on the date we were due to depart. The date was on offer and the booking accepted and full payment taken by the... More

On day one we were met at the gang plank for check-in at 10:30. Our bags were taken off to our cabin, 51.

We had a wonderful day on the ship food was excellent staff were friendly and very helpful. I recommend spending more and having the window seats well worth the extra. More

In fact, we added to the booking by staying the night in one of the excellent comfortable cabins below decks. The whole experience was extremely well organised. The food was superb, the staff were the best - welcoming, friendly... More

I would not recommend that anyone go on the ‘Passage to Cliveden’ tour for a number of reasons: 1) We went in the 1st weekend of September, our departure was delayed 40 minutes waiting for the coach from London and the river traffic was so bad we had long delays on the locks. Instead of taking 4 hours, the trip... More

I took my wife on the London cruise as a birthday surprise. The whole experience exceeded my expectations. An interesting journey, interspersed by wonderful meals served by extremely pleasant but professional staff. We stayed overnight and our cabin was spacious, comfortable and well-equipped, and breakfast kept up the standard. For a luxury London 'venue', prices for drinks were reasonable, as... More

We parked for free at the Runnymede-on-Thames hotel in Egham and boarded just behind the hotel. We set off about 10.40am and proceeded upstream. The Passepartout is an ex amsterdam canal cruiser that has been converted into a 40 seat floating restaurant. It has heating and air con with a small observation deck on the back. As we were on...
