Kingston Royale
Purpose built for the Turk fleet, The Kingston Royale is a modern and versatile vessel.
The lower saloon offers a fully stocked bar with ample seating. A few steps lead to the mezzanine level, ideal for guests to meet and greet as they board and also a suitable area to lay out a buffet.
A small staircase then takes you to the light and airy upper deck with excellent views of the passing river. With padded seating all the way along both sides, the upper deck also offers a large area suitable for a dance floor.
Its recently modified back deck provides a beautiful view of the river from the stern of the vessel.
With its multiple decks the Kingston Royale can accommodate up to 75 guests.
The charges for daytime boat cruises are based on a Kingston start and finish.
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.

Charity Event, L Chapman
“I am writing to convey my thanks to all the staff who were involved in making the trip so pleasant for all our members. I appreciate that it must have been difficult to have so many old and infirm people on the boat but your staff were absolutely charming and helpful.I am particularly grateful to the crew who helped assist one of the members in a wheelchair, as her disability is as such that she is unable to move her legs when moving her. My thanks are also extended to the staff in the office who were infinitely patient with us all as we were trying to get the logistics right. I would certainly recommend Turk’s to any of the charities I come into contact with and hope to use you again next summer.”
