We celebrated a 50th Birthday and reunion in the boat. Everything was excellent. We needed to change dates etc and found Paddy extremely accomodating. The team on board the boat were friendly and professional. They made our night run perfectly. We couldnÂ’t have asked for more. Had a great time!!

We were absolutely blown away by our experience with them. We booked in with a group of friends and the kids to see the Christmas lights through the canals and it was definitely one for the core memory bank! All the staff were so kind and accomodating and Jess was even able to tame the children’s excitement with her calm and bubbly manner. Thank you so much guys – we will be making this one an annual for sure!
