Two-Day Hire without Drop off & Collection

Spend a relaxing weekend exploring the Thames with Thames Canoe Hire. This two-day adventure allows you to paddle through scenic countryside, spotting riverside wildlife, historic villages, and peaceful waters. Each day begins at our base at Reading Marine Services Boatyard where staff provide a full safety briefing and kit you out with paddles, buoyancy aids, and dry bags. The route is flexible, giving you time to enjoy stops at riverside cafes, small beaches, and picturesque towns along the way. Overnight stays in local B&Bs or campsites offer a comfortable rest before continuing the journey the next day.

On the second day, continue your river exploration, enjoying gentle currents, wildlife sightings, and opportunities for photography or a riverside picnic. The trip is suitable for beginners and experienced paddlers, offering both adventure and relaxation. Locks along the route provide interesting challenges, and your guide or staff are available to assist with navigation. This two-day experience is ideal for families, friends, or anyone wanting a peaceful weekend immersed in nature, combining scenic beauty, gentle exercise, and riverside discovery for an unforgettable Thames adventure.
