This canal boat 1 hour cruise was a perfect way to find out more about the history and current day life on the canals. Scott was a great raconteur and made our trip fun and interesting. The boat is clean and you can buy drinks (alcohol too) and snacks to be enjoyed while on the tour. Would not recommend for disabled or those passengers who have mobility issues as you have to board the boat by going down 4 steps backwards. Otherwise the boat is easy to move around once on board.

Very friendly and accommodating commentator Scott, with an amazing amount of knowledge of the history of the area we cruised through, which ranges from building sites, new housing estates, derelict old buildings and what feels like almost tranquil, semi rural locations. Scott was willing to answer questions and involved the children and adults throughout his commentary. Exceptional value for money and definitely worth a visit. Thank you Scott and Driver (sorry can't remember your name) you both did a grand job and our grandson can't stop talking about the canals, sunken boats and the 20 years he would have spent from the age of 6, working to get the canal completed! 🤣
