Enjoy a stroll along the stylish Waterfront at Ipswich – and maybe take a coffee at one of the many cafés or restaurants whilst watching the boats at anchor in the Marina – before stepping on board the ‘Orwell Lady’ for our very popular 3.5 hour cruise on the River Orwell – voted one of the most beautiful and historic rivers in England. Immerse yourself in pretty Suffolk countryside as ever-changing river scenes pass you by. You’ll pass through the lock gates, under the stunning Orwell Bridge, through areas of outstanding natural beauty and wildlife and past the Pin Mill to the Stour Estuary to see (weather permitting) the UK’s largest container port at Felixstowe and historic Harwich. Afternoon tea will be served during the cruise as you absorb history and tales from the Skipper's interesting commentary. Please let us know of any dietary requirements at the time of booking.

"Well planned out, and excellent service all day from our driver Jason. The boat trip itself was very enjoyable, and the afternoon tea served onboard exceptional" 2022 customer comment.

We're due to arrive at Ipswich Waterfront at 12:15 for free time before our 14:00 cruise. The cruise returns at 17:30 and then we'll head home. There'll be a 30 minute stop at Cambridge Services on the outward journey.
