cruise along the historic regent's canal, through beautiful regent's park and the maida hill tunnel. this is a unique opportunity to travel on the canal's original narrowboats that were once used to carry cargo. converted in 1958, we have four traditional working narrowboats, three on the national register of historic ships. your journey will be complemented by a brief commentary on the routes and history of the canals so you can enjoy the peace and quiet while you travel. but don?t worry, the crew will be on hand to answer any questions. no booking required, just turn up and pay on the boat. please note that it is very busy at little venice between 11:00am and 1:00pm. we have strict legal limits on the number of passengers per boat. for the safety of passengers and the crew, and to enable others to use the towpath, queuing may be necessary.
