    Canal journey
    My husbands favourite place to visit. We come at least once a year and usually stay in the waterways premier inn. This was full so we have tried the central one. We started our weekend with the trip from the water bowl along to the weir, and back, the most relaxing 40 minutes to start our day. There were only 34 of us on board, I over heard the man counting, The classical music as we glided along was perfect, the information given was interesting without being dull. The gentleman jumping on and off the boat was funny and entertaining especially with the children. There are a few canal boats that offer trips, but you do not get the same experience, £9 per adult is worth it to keep this beautiful Dutch barge afloat.

    Stratford upon avon river trip
    We booked online a canal trip and it couldnt of been easier to do. When we arrived we boarded and sat down in comfortable seats. The music that was played was a mood booster and the commentary was very knowledgeable about the town and history and some times humerous. Our Captain was called Corrie and he didnt sink us or exceed the 3mph speed limit (honestly officer!) Dino was the on board entertainment officer and he did a fine job! He made sure that everyone was ok throughout the trip. Well done to all involved, we really enjoyed our trip thanks to you guys!!
