Canterbury Punting Company

Excellent tour with Quentin. As it wasn't crowded, we were offered an opportunity to take a second tour up river at half price. The history of Canterbury Quentin provided during the up river tour was informative and that stretch of the river was peaceful enough to be able to hear easily, as it was more through natural surroundings. The down river tour had more picturesque scenery, as it went through the center of the old town, including under a few buildings. All in all, very enjoyable!

Enjoyable punting experience on the river. Reasonable rates for a group experience and an impressively well informed guide. Dog friendly. Walk in or book online (discounts for certain timeslots available online). Concessions available, including ones for teachers.

Five stars are for the guide Bella.. she was so lovely and lively and made the tour very pleasant !! She does have a good knowledge on history and she really does her job with full commitment .. other people in the company including the person who explained on the trip, who booked the reservation and the girl who accompanied until the boat were very friendly and lovely. Had a great time and worth the visit ... They have good standard boats than the usual rowing ones ... Worth the visit !

Had a great trip with Quentin. His story telling is very entertaining, if not necessarily always accurate. 🤣 The dog loved it too. Thanks for the help getting him on & off the boat.

Great way to see an alternative Canterbury. Very relaxing and the staff are enthusiastic and knowledgeable, which makes it interesting. Additional cushions were supplied with a smile and meant we were very comfortable for the duration of our Punt.

Someone recommended this activity to me, and I’m so glad I listened! This was a beautiful way to spend time in Canterbury, and the guides are incredibly knowledgeable. This particular company is based out of a cafe which is also a pleasant place to spend time. Great staff, great experience, HIGHLY recommend.

A relaxing ride down the river! My son lived all the facts as we learnt more about Canterbury. The river is beautiful and we enjoyed watching all the wildlife. We wanted to change are booking and the staff were friendly and helpful.

We had a great tour with Drew ☺️ We decided to go upstream and it was harder to punt! Drew did a great job to show us the rural area of Canterbury. I would love to take the city tour next time 🤗 I love the clear water and a variety of water grass.
