About
Severn Expeditions Day Boat Hire offer self drive motor boats for day hire on the river Severn between Tewkesbury and Worcester. You don't need any previous experience or a boat licence to book with us, we will teach you everything you need to know in a handover session before you depart. All you need to do is book in advance. Then pack a picnic and have lots of fun with family, friends or colleagues cruising up and down the river. We are lucky to live in such a beautiful area, so sit back, relax, enjoy the countryside and all the wildlife it has to offer.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

As an older couple we were a bit nervous about venturing out in the big River Severn by our selves - but Karen was so encouraging and explained every thing so well we set off with more confidence. What a lovely experience- the reflections in the water were beautiful. Would thoroughly recommend

Had a lovely afternoon cruising up the Severn, despite getting a bit wet with a heavy shower ! The 2 guys who explained it all to us were very friendly and chatty and made it so easy, so a big thank-you to them. The boat held 7 of us comfortably and we saw lots of wildlife - 10 herons, 2 kingfishers, a huge flock of geese flying over, plus lots of ducks and swans. It was very easy to drive and so relaxing, sailing slowly along, with plenty to look at. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a half, or whole day excursion.

We spent a wonderful and relaxing day at Severn River. It was the first time we rented a boat. Tim was very friendly and helpful; he provided us all the instructions we needed and the boat "Pippin" was immaculate! We spotted lots of wildlife. Great experience, definitely to be repeated! Thanks a lot Tim.

Brilliant day, Karen was fabulous and gave great tuition, boat was easy to drive. Great views and wildlife. Recommend a hat if sunny and swan food as met by loads of swans. Nice picnic and memorable day, thanks Karen & Tim.

Very friendly and competent staff took us through the procedures of how to operate the boat. The trip up and down the river was wonderful hard to believe you’re in the middle of a built-up country. We all had a go at steering the boat thank goodness the river is wide! But we quickly got the hang of it.

Having used Severn expeditions before we came back for another trip, very friendly service from start to finish, very well kept boats and a very comprehensive , easy to understand information pack sent beforehand. Thanks to the lock keeper downstream who was most helpful, looking forward to going upstream with a picnic next time. Free parking at the marina with bar etc. Thanks again.

Severn Expeditions were brilliant. They were so helpful in the phone to book the boat with advice as to which boat would be most suitable with our little baby. Then, with terrible weather predicted they suggested changing our booking twice so that we would be able to get the maximum experience from our trip. Third time lucky, we finally got out. On arrival to check in for our trip all members of the team were friendly, helpful and funny. They gave us great instruction providing life jackets for us all and the baby - who looked super cute in his!
We had a lovely time out on the river and they suggested the route we might like to take so that we could stop for a drink at the pub!
Really excellent service from start to finish. Thank you.

A very pleasant morning, spent pootling up the river and back to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. Tim was very friendly and helpful, the boat easy to manage, and the weather held just long enough for us to get back without getting wet. We saw five herons and an egret, and the fishermen along the route seemed to be getting good catches too! Highly recommended.
