Charter Our Historic Navy Boats
Booking now for Summer-Fall 2026
With the warmer weather on the horizon, now is your chance to take advantage of the beauty of the Thames river aboard the Park’s historic naval vessels. TRHP’s private charter service is the best way to celebrate a birthday, anniversary, work-outing or graduation. Charters can be requested seven days a week, even for a Sunset Cruise! Guests can look forward to this exclusive experience between May-October.
- Each of the boats holds approximately 30 – 35 people
- Includes a captain, crew and fuel.
- You may bring beverages and snacks, but please no glass.
- Please note that the boats do not have bathrooms on board.
- Bicycles and well-behaved dogs accommodated, space permitting.
Schedule permitting, the Park may be able to provide a docent for a fee should your group like to hear about some of the rich history on the Thames. When our boats are not ferrying passengers to the sites in the Park they are available for charter.
