It was really nice to spend 1 hour along the canal in this boat I picket up information I dib not know along the way which was very interesting considering I’m a Mancunian,thank you for a nice morning

It was very informative. A good length of time. There was space to sit under cover if you wanted to but also have windows open to get some fresh air so not stuffy like other boat trips I have been on.

Great night. Made by the staff who were excellent. Elvis was good and very entertaining. Manchester looks amazing all lit up seen from the water👍 Good value for money

Fantastic Boat Ride around salford amazing history lesson very relaxing got nice coffee on board.

It was a great new experience. Recommend it even for people who are not new to Manchester
