Sit back and admire the changing landscape.

Our Cream Tea Cruise is a 2 hour round trip on our larger boat Richmond and provides uninterrupted views of the countryside. Your boat trip includes a Scone, locally made jam and clotted cream as well as a choice of tea or coffee. The canal is a beautiful retreat close to the city, easily accessible by public transport.

You can enjoy the reflections on the water and the unique views of the cathedral and South Downs as you glide past the wild flowers and reed beds. Watch out for herons, kingfishers, swans and mallards in their natural habitat.
