Our verdict

Click&Boat suits groups who want a boat hired directly instead of a packaged holiday, and it takes 10-23% of rental price in service fees for the service work. Booking on boat rental and tours keeps the choice wide, and the flexible refund gives a crew some room to change dates.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Bookings sit in a focused set of boat rental and tours, so a search for a boat does not turn up unrelated travel lines.
  • Booking fees of 10-23% of rental price in service fees are set against the rental price, which makes the extra cost readable before paying.
  • The flexible option in Full refund up to 24h before arrival (flexible) returns the full amount up to the cut-off, giving a crew room to replan.
  • A mobile app is available, so a charter can be handled away from a desktop.
  • Support runs on email, phone and help centre, which includes phone and email for questions before a crew sets off.

Cons

  • Booking fees of 10-23% of rental price in service fees sit on top of the rental price, so a quoted charter is not the final sum.
  • The catalogue covers boat rental and tours and nothing wider, so a crew wanting a hotel or a flight books those elsewhere.
  • The refund in Full refund up to 24h before arrival (flexible) is the flexible option, so a protected booking depends on the policy chosen.
  • The operator is ClickandBoat (SAS) in France, so a dispute sits with a company outside the UK and the wider EEA consumer routes.

Who it suits

  • Groups renting a boat for a set period rather than joining a scheduled tour.
  • Travellers already have flights and a bed sorted and want the charter on top.
  • Cohorts comparing the extra cost, since booking fees of 10-23% of rental price in service fees scale with the rental price.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Anyone building a whole holiday in one place, as boat rental and tours stops at boat rental and tours.
  • Travellers who want a fixed refund rather than the flexible option in Full refund up to 24h before arrival (flexible).
  • Readers who need a UK-based operator, since the company is registered in France.

Fees and cancellation

Every rental carries service work billed as 10-23% of rental price in service fees, and the figure is tied to the rental price rather than a flat charge, so a larger boat costs more in fees as well as in hire. Alongside that sits Full refund up to 24h before arrival (flexible), where the flexible policy returns the full amount up to the cut-off before arrival. That pairing makes the running total of a charter easy to work out: the rental price, then the share in service fees, with a refund route for a crew whose plans move.

What you can book

The bookable range is short and specific: boat rental and tours. A crew comes to the site for a boat and can add tours, but nothing wider sits alongside, so the search stays on the water rather than on a full itinerary. A mobile app is available, which matters for a charter where the boat, the meeting point and the skipper details need to be at hand on the day.

The company behind it

The operator is ClickandBoat (SAS), registered in France, and the company has been trading since 2013. Support for a crew runs on email, phone and help centre, so a question about a vessel or a payment can go to phone or email, with a help centre and a community for anything that can wait. The registered entity and the address behind the terms are both published, which is worth checking before a large deposit goes out.

How Click&Boat compares

Frequently asked questions

What does Click&Boat charge on top of a boat rental?+

Service fees are charged as 10-23% of rental price in service fees, which means the extra cost rises with the price of the rental rather than staying flat. A small boat and a large one therefore carry different fee totals, and the fee line is worth reading before a crew commits to a vessel.

Can I get my money back if the charter has to change?+

The flexible policy under Full refund up to 24h before arrival (flexible) returns the full amount up to the cut-off before arrival. That applies to bookings that take that policy, so a crew that wants this route needs to check which policy the listing carries at the point of booking rather than assuming it applies.

What can I book on the site?+

The range covers boat rental and tours, so a crew can take a boat charter or a tour. There is no wider travel catalogue here, which keeps the search focused on the water. Flights and beds for the same trip would be arranged elsewhere.

Is there an app for managing a charter?+

A mobile app is available, so a charter can be reviewed and kept to hand away from a desktop. That is useful on the day itself, when the vessel details and the meeting point matter more than the booking screen. The same information is available on the desktop site.

How do I reach a person about a booking?+

Support runs on email, phone and help centre, which covers phone and email alongside a help centre and a community. A crew with a question before payment can go direct, while anything that can wait is handled through the written channels. The channels are listed on the same help pages that cover the fees.

Who runs the site and where are they based?+

The operator is ClickandBoat (SAS), registered in France, and the company has been trading since 2013. A named registered entity and a published address mean a crew can see who stands behind a booking before a large payment goes out, which is worth doing given the size of a charter deposit.

Is this a good fit for a group rather than a couple?+

A boat charter suits a group that wants the vessel to itself for a set period, and Full refund up to 24h before arrival (flexible) gives that group a refund route if plans shift before arrival. Booking fees of 10-23% of rental price in service fees scale with the rental price, so a larger group should read the total carefully before choosing a boat.

Does Click&Boat sell a whole holiday as well as the boat?+

The catalogue is boat rental and tours, so the site covers the charter and tours rather than a full package. Travellers who want flights, transfers and a hotel in one place will do better with an operator that lists flights, hotels and tours or flights, packages and tours, and can add a charter alongside if they wish.
