French Brothers Ltd

French Brothers Ltd runs dog-friendly boat trips on the River Thames from Windsor Promenade, offering a relaxed 40-minute round cruise with views of Windsor Castle and the riverside. Well-behaved dogs travel free of charge and are welcome aboard the public Windsor trip, making it an easy, low-effort outing when you want to give your dog something different without venturing far from central Windsor. Departures run daily from mid-February through to early November, with boats leaving at least every 30 minutes between 10am and 5pm during the main season.

Weekend and bank holiday sailings operate during the quieter months, so you can still fit in a short river trip outside the peak period. It's the sort of thing that slots neatly into a Windsor day out without needing hours of planning.

There's no dedicated on-site parking, though disabled parking is available nearby. The embarkation point is on the promenade at Barry Avenue and the operator notes there's no dropping-off directly beside the boarding area, so allow a little extra time if you're arriving by car with kit in tow.
