This was purchased by my Daughter for my Birthday back in lockdown days but I’d extended the voucher a couple of times (with a fee) and eventually got the chance to use it and booked a days boating on the Leeds/Liverpool Canal from Skipton. It was a great experience and really enjoyable, there was 7 of us and Charlie the Dog. The guy at the Boat yard who explained everything was great but it takes around 40mins so if you want your full day you need to be there around 0:9:30 if your picking the boat up @ 10am which was advised actually but we didn’t arrive until 10am. Would recommend this for a family day out, excellent.

A wonderful way to travel and see places from a new perspective. We had a great time. Still need a bit of training in narrow boat etiquette and will definitely be doing it again
