Arrive early to board calmly

Dress in layers for changing temperatures
Even in summer the river breeze cools quickly after sunset — bring a windproof layer or light jacket.
Bring non‑slip shoes
Decks can be slick from spray; flat, grippy footwear helps you move safely and enjoy the view.

If you’re sensitive to motion, take medication ahead of time or choose a seat near the center of the boat where motion is minimized.
Light windbreaker or fleece
Keeps you warm when the river breeze intensifies after sunset.

Improves footing on wet or moving decks.
Camera or smartphone with extra battery

Motion‑sickness remedy
