Your recent holiday on Warbler - Magnolia Warbler from Wrenbury

This was the first time for us and it certainly won’t be our last. We absolutely loved being on the canals. ABC were so understanding about us getting stuck in traffic and getting there a little late. Everyone was friendly and approachable. We will definitely be doing our next canal boat trip through ABC

Too expensive for 3 nights.

Your recent holiday on Swift - Tepui Swift from Aldermaston Wharf

Allover rating is good. The personnel was very friendly. But we were given wrong info about trash removal and water resupply. It is just not possible „almost everywhere“ on the canal. And we were promised a call about fuel consumption - that never happened. Last but not least - the change between canal and river was quite challenging, especially in the vicinity of the pub The Rowbarge. This is not something for beginners. You should pay more attention to explaining how to navigate a boat. Luckily I am not a beginner.

Very friendly and helpful staff. I particularly liked the handover from Lawrie which was calm and comprehensive. The boat was well equiped with spare hose attachments and locks in case they are lost. Very good thinking.

Your recent holiday on Sandpiper - Marsh Sandpiper from Gayton

very clean boat, handover thorough, great staff not keen on new modern layout as kitchen cupboard doors hit each other and less room to move trough cabin - the only fault

Perfect. Many itinerary options available from Alvechurch. The one we chose for our trip with our 9 year granddaugter allowed canal side visits to Cadburys, the Black country museum (excellent) and Lego Land, as well as the experience of living on a narrowboat, working the locks, and taking the boat through the center of Birmingham.
