Taster Days and pre-holiday crew tuition
The day is particularly suitable for a family or group about to take a narrowboat holiday for the first time, and prefer not to do a formal training course.
We will show you and allow you to practice whatever you wish to learn. The day will be tailored to your specific requirements.
Taster Days can be enjoyed all year (subject to availability) and offer a group of upto 4 people a single day on a narrowboat, with tuition for locks and steering with our RYA qualified instructor Helmsman.
Alternatively you can just have a relaxing day, sit back and watch the world go by at canal speed - slowly.
Complimentary tea and coffee is available on board. Bring your own picnic or a stop at a canalside pub can be arranged!
Weekday / Weekend………£160.00 per day for up to 4 persons.
For those wanting a relaxing day an additional crew member is required to operate the locks please add £35.00.
