River Thames Canoe Hire

We offer River Thames canoe hire and kayak hire along it’s length from Cricklade all the way to central London. In central London we can only provide kayak hire due to restrictions on what boats are allowed on the Thames at that point.

River Thames Information

The Thames is 215 miles long. Thames Head is the source, about a mile north of the village of Kemble in southern Gloucestershire in the Cotswolds.

The Thames is the longest river which has its entirety in England. However, the River Severn (which flows partly through Wales) is the longest river in the United Kingdom.

The Thames flows through Cricklade, Lechlade, Oxford, Abingdon, Wallingford, Goring-on-Thames, Reading, Henley-on-Thames, Marlow, Maidenhead, Windsor, Eton, Staines, Sunbury, Weybridge and Thames Ditton before entering the Greater London area. The present course is the result of several minor redirections of the main channel around Oxford, Abingdon and Maidenhead.

All of these places are available to start and finish a canoe and kayak trip.
