Duration 45 minutes
Departs Snape Maltings Quay

Depart from the historic quay, where generations of Thames Barge skippers have plied their trade. Hop aboard Suffolk River Trips’ Tilly Too or Emily and head out through the narrows down towards Iken.

The 45-minute trip gives you the chance to explore this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty from the River Alde, abundant with wildlife that changes with the seasons and stunning views across the mudflats and the reedbeds.

Our shallow draft launch Emily is ideal for keen birdwatchers, as it enables us to get out at lower states of the tide when there are more wading birds around.

Please note that the River Alde is tidal, therefore trips do not take place every day, and times of trips vary from day to day.

Explore times and book tickets.

Tilly Too and Emily can each take up to 12 people per trip, and trips will last approximately 45 minutes.

Dogs are welcome on all trips.

Suffolk River Trips also runs trips from Orford Quay and Woodbridge Town Steps – find out more at Suffolk River Trips.
