Book A Trip

One of the best ways to explore the canal is from the water, why not jump onboard one of our boats and enjoy the beautiful views of the Kennet & Avon Canal. Our boats set off from a number of locations so wherever you are visiting you are not far from taking a trip with us.

Many of our boats also offer the option for private charters and run themed trips around seasonal holidays. There’s lots happening along the canal with many events along the navigation, more information can be found on our events page.

We also offer accessible boats for self-drive Holiday hire and Day trips for up to 12 passengers hosted by our volunteer crew. Bruce Boats pages for more information.
