About College Cruisers
College Cruisers has a fleet of 10 narrow boats for hire on the South Oxford Canal, based in the historical beautiful city of Oxford .
College Cruisers Description
Our Oxford Canal boat holidays help you escape the rigours of modern living. Plot a leisurely course through the locks and bridges and enjoy the pretty towns, villages and country pubs along the way.
Our hire fleet comprises nine boats suiting all requirements, budgets, and sleeping 2 to 12 people. All boats are painted in Oxford Blue livery and are named after various Oxford University Colleges.
The whole of the South Oxford canal from Oxford to Napton can easily be explored from the Oxford base, and with the purchase of an extra licence, both the upper and lower reaches of the River Thames can also be experienced.
College Cruisers is happy to cater for single sex parties, help organise a family celebration, or help friends catch up and step back from their busy lives, and help families to create some magical holiday memories.

Wonderful trip along the oxford canal ...
We hired Exeter for our Dads 70th Celebrations..... we named her "The Birthday Barge"!!! Carys and Co couldn't of done anymore for us - they kindly decorated the boat before arrival offered for our food shop to be delivered there. Before the event recommended some pubs to stop at for dinner - a superb service provided!! Everyone had an amazing time... lots of memories made - will certainly be making a return visit - Thanks all � xxx
My family had a lovely week on the Oxford Canal in the "Exeter." We appreciated the instruction that took us through a lock before setting off. Having some time in Oxford itself on the boat right within walking distance of everything was a nice bonus on either end of the week. The boat was well provisioned with comfortable beds, a workable kitchen, and plenty of space for the family. Really lovely country to travel through, getting us off the usual beaten paths of tourists in England. Highly recommended!
I hired the Balliol boat for 3 nights over bank holiday weekend. We were a group of 6 ladies in our 20's who had no previous experience of driving a canal boat. The whole weekend was excellent, the boat itself was lovely, plenty of room for 6 of us, it was very clean and had everything we needed. Our induction was brilliant and the boat was much simpler to drive than I expected. All the staff at College Cruises were amazing and made the whole weekend very enjoyable and relaxing for us, I can't thank you all enough. I'd like to think we are now boating experts and would definitely return � highly recommended!
Great boats and lovely people!! Enough said!
