About Us

Whilst Canterbury Historic River Tours was formed in the year 2000 the company can trace its past and follows the traditions of the very first River Tour company based in Canterbury over 75 years ago. Much time was invested in researching the history of the wonderful buildings which grace The River Stour banks, and developing a tour which our guests of all ages would find interesting, relaxing and most of all highly entertaining.

Whist we are a small independently managed business which started with small means, we have gained a great reputation for our friendly professional manner and exceedingly high standards for our tour which has seen the business grow year upon year. We hold a sincere passion for the river we work on and try to maintain and upkeep the beauty and ecological importance of our river for future generations to enjoy.
