Boat Hire Charges
The charges for daytime and evening boat cruises below are based on a Kingston start and finish. Please view the bottom tab for information about additional charges for other locations. All boat hire is exempt from VAT. Pier fees are subject to VAT at the current rate - this only applies to piers not owned by Turks (we own the piers in Kingston, Richmond and Hampton Court).
An initial £300.00 booking deposit is required with a signed booking form to secure a booking. The balance is due 28 days prior to the event. An additional security deposit is payable and is held against breakages and damages until after the event when it is reissued in a cheque assuming it is not needed for the aforementioned. Please click on the tabs below to view the current hire charges for 2012.
