Mark August, 2023

If you want to go boating, tubing, wakeboarding, or wakesurfing, you need to rent from Josh! I wakeboarded for the first time in years. My two elementary-school-age daughters and I had a blast going tubing all over the lake. And thanks to Josh's skilled instruction, patience, and positivity, we all got up on the wakesurf board too! We had an absolutely fantastic experience!!

Nick July, 2023

Josh is a really fun, experienced captain. He knows Lake Anna well and in a half day had us wakesurfing in quiet coves, cliff jumping and even stopping by the sand bar called “cocktail cove”. Having him drive the boat made everything easy for us. We hope to go boating with him again soon!

Douglas May, 2023

Josh was a super host and Captain. Our family had a great day on the lake full of wake boarding, surfing and tubing. Even hit some hot spots on the lake; Tim’s, rock wall jumping and Cocktail Cove. Josh knew all the best places to visit and board/surf with smooth water and limited traffic. His boat and gear was top notch. All around great and fun guy to spend the day with. Highly recommended!

Christopher May, 2023

Our boat rental with Josh was incredible. Once we were all boarded and situated, Josh let us know a ton of options for things that we could do while we were out on the water. We stopped at a few locations that he recommended and did a bunch of water sports, which he helped to teach us. Overall, Josh and his first mate were both really nice and made sure all along the way that our group of guys were having a great time. We felt very comfortable riding all around the lake and doing all of the water sports, even though most of us had not done them before. Josh knew exactly how to cater the sports to our level of experience. When we rent on Lake Anna again, we know that we will rent with Josh for sure!

Dana July, 2023

Had a few issues with Bluetooth working and it would have been awesome to have some tunes. Canopy was non op but the experience, the lake, the customer service by Joe and Zachary was exceptional. They own 3 boats and the original one we reserved on Get My Boat wasn’t available, so I had to upgrade to a more expensive boat and pay additional for gas. Word of caution, cellular service is very spotty, so make sure to download your music ahead of time. At the end of the day the value was there, the service was great, weather awesome and I would rent again from Zachary and Joe. Two, young entrepreneurial guys, running a small business which is always great to see and support.

Alexandra May, 2022

If you are looking for a great time on the water in a bad ass boat, Antonio is the guy for you! So easy to communicate with, knew all the hostpots on the lake, and had a beautiful boat. We all will remember this trip for a lifetime. Definitely recommend!

Richmond Private Charters

Private charters are the perfect outing for field trips, celebrations and family gatherings..

Canal cruise private charters are available as one- or two-hour private boat tours that are a favorite for family reunions, celebrating birthdays, engagements, corporate retreats, business groups, churches, clubs and so many more group outings. Private charters may be scheduled for any day and time during the season, but must be reserved a minimum of two weeks in advance.

Customers may choose for their boat ride to be historically narrated, or they can choose to forgo the historic narration and take in the sights while listening to light music over a provided speaker or simply conversing with their fellow guests. The boats can be outfitted with tables of various sizes that can accommodate light refreshments or a more formal, catered meal (catering is not provided by Riverfront Canal Cruises).

Pricing and Guidelines

Your chartered boat(s) may be set up in one of the following (3) configurations:

• Dining style has tables and chairs, seating a maximum of 20 passengers.
• Cocktail style has chairs, benches and a small table, seating a maximum of 22 passengers.
• Excursion style has chairs and benches, seating a maximum of 25 passengers.
• $165 per boat / per hour
• $130 per boat / per hour for seniors and non-profits/educational groups

The 32-foot-long boats are covered with a canopy to protect riders from the weather, but we recommend that all passengers check the weather the day of and dress accordingly. The boats are handicapped accessible and can accommodate up to two wheelchairs.

Charters may be scheduled for any day and time during the boating season, are dependent on weather conditions and are scheduled on an individual basis, subject to availability.

Please book charters a minimum of two weeks in advance. Once scheduled, cruises can be canceled up to 7 days in advance without penalty. All reservations must be made online.

You may hire your own caterer or bring your own food and beverages on your private charter. Riverfront Canal Cruises requires compliance with all applicable Virginia ABC laws and regulations for all private charters that bring alcohol. Unless you have hired a caterer to provide alcoholic beverages, this is likely to include obtaining your own banquet license. Information about the laws and the banquet license application are available on the Virginia ABC website . We do not hire caterers, serve or set up food and beverage service for private charters. We do, however, set up the tables and chairs/benches on the boats in advance of your charter.
