The Matthew sets off from its Princes Wharf mooring, taking in the sights and sounds of Bristol's historic Harbour as it heads down to Junction Lock.
Going through the lock, the ship leaves Floating Harbour, sailing down the river under the Clifton Suspension Bridge and along the Avon Gorge to Pill and back.
During the cruise, passengers are free to wander around the main deck – there are some excellent vantage points from which to take photos of the trip!
At the end of the trip, The Matthew returns to its Princes Wharf mooring, allowing passengers to disembark the ship. New dates are released in batches throughout The Matthew's sailing season (April-October).
Please checkThe Matthew website for up-to-date ticket availability.
