Salisbury Punting offers chauffeur-guided punt tours along the River Avon from the Rose & Crown Hotel on Harnham Road in central Salisbury. Dogs are welcome on board, making this a relaxed way to see the city from the water while keeping the whole group together.

The punt tours operate daily from 9am to 9pm, giving you plenty of flexibility for a morning river trip or a late-afternoon escape. It's a compact, boat-based day out that suits dogs comfortable with gentle river movement and sitting still for the duration of the tour.

The tours depart from the Rose & Crown Hotel, so you'll need to use public parking nearby or in central Salisbury. The punt experience works well as part of a wider Salisbury visit, especially if you're looking for a dog-friendly activity that doesn't involve long walks or crowded indoor spaces.

Water bowls available

Dog Policy:

Dogs are welcome on the punt tours. The tours operate on the River Avon, so your dog should be comfortable sitting calmly on board for the duration of the trip.
