Tours following the River Thames from its source through the picturesque inland port of Lechlade on Thames to the historical University City of Oxford.

Source of the Thames

This lies in a remote Gloucestershire meadow on the edge of the small village of Kemble. Below the branches of an old ash tree stands the source marker stone which bears the following inscription:
The Conservation of the River Thames 1857 – 1974 This stone was placed here to mark the Source of the River Thames

Lechlade

A popular tourist attraction particularly in the summer when the River Thames is busy with narrow boats and cruisers. With good local fishing, lots of places to eat and lots of antique shops to browse in.

Oxford

Home to the oldest university in the country, Oxford’s landmarks demonstrate every architectural period since the Saxon days. Many of these were featured in the Inspector Morse mysteries. There are many diverse shops and restaurants around the city. The River Thames also runs through the city providing tranquil walks and amazing scenery.
