5.00What a lovely boat trip this was!! Nick was a fantastic guide and very knowledgeable. An informative trip down the river, with a chilled cruise back up with some music and sunshine! His dog also joined us for lots of cuddles!! Thanks Nick, would definitely recommend!! 🙂

5.00My husband and I took the train for the day from London. We thoroughly enjoyed the day walking along the canal, wandering through the University area and hanging out in the town square listening to music. It was a nice break from the crowds of people and the hustle and bustle during our 5 day stay in London. Would definitely go back and stay longer. Sandra, Vancouver
