THE BOOKING

Per-person pricing and minimums

What the day feels like

What it feels like

The experience is a private, hosted river charter: you hire The Georgian for a defined block of time, arrive to a staffed vessel, receive a welcome drink and dine from an included buffet while a licensed bar operates through the cruise.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this private charter suits — and who should look elsewhere.

1
Small private parties (10–29)Well suited: pricing and service accommodate intimate groups in the 10–29 range at the per‑person rate provided; note the minimum charge applies if fewer than 10 attend.
2
Medium celebrations (30–49)Ideal for mid‑size events—tiered per‑person pricing lowers the cost per guest in this band while maintaining full crew and bar service.
3
Large events (50–60)Suitable for larger private gatherings; the largest published tier covers up to 60 guests at the stated per‑person rate.
4
Very small groups and solo bookersNot ideal unless you can cover the minimum: groups under 10 are charged as a 10‑guest booking, so price accordingly before committing.
