Private Charter
The boats can be hired during the day or evening for parties, sightseeing trips, promotional functions or
receptions. Trips usually begin at Camden Lock but it is possible to arrange trips on other parts of the Canal.
We can provide different types of boat to suit different types of group and function, from smaller parties
(up to 35) to sightseeing tours (60). All boats have weather protection in case of rain and opening windows and
hatches for fine days.
Hirers are welcome to bring their own refreshments or we can provide names of reliable caterers. No surcharge is made
and a buffet table is provided. On some trips it is possible to arrange a stop at a canalside venue.
Water Ouzel
For a short cruise 2 - 3 hours along the prettiest part of the Regents Canal, through Regents Park, the London Zoo
and the Maida Hill Tunnel to Little Venice.
The canal is ideal for group days out and tours can be arranged according to length required. Commentary
can be provided. for a full day tour we recommend a trip west wards to Horsenden Farm for a lunch time barbecue
or for history or canal enthusiasts, eastwards to the Canal Museum or Limehouse Basin.
