River Rat Stanford: Scenic River Cruises on the Klein River

Experience the beauty of the Klein River with River Rat Stanford, offering memorable scenic cruises just outside Hermanus. Perfect for nature lovers, birdwatchers, and families seeking a relaxing day on the water.

Discover the Rich Wildlife of Klein River

Our cruises showcase Klein River’s diverse birdlife, including nesting and breeding habitats along the reeds on the riverbanks. Keep an eye out for otters feeding on crabs, elusive terrapins, and the occasional puff adder swimming across the waters. You might also spot local buck roaming in nearby reserves.

Customized River Cruises for Every Occasion

We tailor our cruises to meet your needs and operate in most weather conditions. Whether you’re seeking a peaceful birdwatching experience or an exciting social outing, the River Rat provides a tranquil setting for all.

Eco-Friendly, Comfortable, and Photogenic

Equipped with a quiet, eco-friendly motor, our boat is ideal for birding and photography. Its stability, thanks to pontoons, makes it perfect for capturing stunning images. Plus, the vessel features a built-in braai (barbecue), toilet, and picturesque views for a truly memorable experience.

Fun and Food on the Water

Enjoy a stopover mooring in the reeds for a brunch, boerewors rolls, or a full braai while swimming in warm, clean water. Kids (and the young at heart) can play with onboard noodle floats. Bring your own snacks, drinks, and utensils—don’t forget warm clothing, binoculars, cameras, towels, and swimwear for warmer days. We provide the braai and grill.

Celebrate Special Moments

Host birthday parties, wine tastings, year-end functions, or any celebration in the serene surroundings of Klein River. A sunset cruise is a can’t-miss activity, offering breathtaking views of the sun setting behind the Klein River Mountains, reflections on the water, and the sounds of birds settling in for the night—perfect for your bucket list.

Safe, Dog-Friendly, and Informative

Safety is our priority. Lifejackets are available for all guests, and we are dog-friendly. Our knowledgeable skipper will share interesting stories about the river, birdlife, and local inhabitants along the route.
