Here you will find answers to our most frequently asked questions, I you have any additional questions, please contact us at bookings@ribride.co.uk or by calling 0333 1234 303 (a local rate number) and one of our team will be happy to help.
On our Adventure RIB Tours the minimum age is 4yrs. For our Explorer RIB Tours the minimum age is 8yrs.
Our RIBs are open to the elements and we go out in most weathers including the rain, so please dress appropriately for the weather and season. It is always cooler on the water.
The aim is not to get you wet, however we cannot guarantee this, so please make sure you have a waterproof layer, as it can get a bit splashy in certain conditions. Sensible shoes, no heels! In the colder months, hats and gloves are essential. Sunglasses are also a good idea.
Yes, life jackets are mandatory for everybody onboard and are provided by RibRide. Our life jackets can accommodate up to a 50in chest. If you are larger than this, please call the office on 0333 1234 303 for advice.
We aim to keep you dry, but this is an adventure boat trip and the RIB is open to the elements. In certain weather and tidal conditions there is a chance you may get wet. We have limited numbers of waterproof jackets and trousers which you may borrow (subject to availability), however we cannot guarantee that you will stay dry. Please dress appropriately or bring a spare set of dry clothing if the weather is looking particularly inclement.
We always keep a very close eye on the weather and if the weather forecast deems the trip unsafe to go, we will endeavour to contact you 24 hours ahead, so please ensure we have the correct contact details for you.
If we have to cancel a trip due to the weather, you may re-arrange your trip for another date or you will be issued with a gift voucher to use at a later date.
We do still go out in the rain.
The maximum speed the RIB will travel at is 45mph. This will seem fast on the water, but it is not a dangerous speed and our experienced skippers will ensure you are kept entertained, thrilled and safe throughout your trip.
No, all tours are round trips and you will stay onboard for the duration of the trip. The RIB does not have a toilet, so please make sure you have used the RibRide facilities prior to boarding. If you need to use the facilities, please allow enough time to get to the departure point on time, particularly during busy periods.
Very occasionally, it may not be possible to complete the tour as described. All our skippers have complete discretion to amend any trip to ensure all passengers have a safe and highly enjoyable experience. In this case you will still have an exciting adventure RIB tour, but it may not be as originally described.
If you are pregnant, we advise against participating on a RibRide, as trips can be a bit bumpy in certain conditions. If you do want to go, we would ask that you consult with your doctor or midwife beforehand and consider booking this trip as a private event. We can then tailor the trip to suit your situation and the weather conditions on the day. If you choose to participate, this is entirely at your own risk.
We welcome customers with a range of abilities on board our RIBS. To participate, customers must be able to board and disembark the boat (with assistance if required) and hold on whilst the boat is moving.
Our friendly bookings team and skippers are always available to assist those who may require additional help. For further details about getting on and off the boat, please see our access statement.
For safety reasons, we cannot take dogs onboard our RIB tours and do not have suitable premises to dog sit whilst you are on a trip. Please ensure you have made suitable arrangements for your furry friend, prior to checking in.
Menai Bridge is a small town with limited on-street parking, however there are five car parks in the town, all within a short walk of our reception. Please allow plenty of time to park before checking in for your RibRide.
