When you book your holiday with us, we'll send you the details to download the ABC Boat Hire smart phone app. 

The ABC app is personalised to your holiday, so it will show you how long until your adventure starts with a handy countdown. You also get a map with highlighted local attractions you'll find along your route, videos such as The Boaters Handbook DVD and our own video showing you what it's like being on a canal boat holiday with ABC as well as other bits of useful information for your holiday that you can access whenever you want and from wherever you are. 

Getting your free app is easy.
