Your recent holiday on Wren - Pacific Wren from Anderton

Lovely boat, easy to handle and well set up. Marina staff were really helpful as we had to change plans last minute. Had a great holiday with the dogs.

Everything always good from booking, to pre arrival arrangements, arrival and handover, if assistance required and when returning to Marina. Have used you for over 35 years and always return 1 - 2 times every year

Your recent holiday on Goose - White Fronted Goose from Hilperton

Relaxing along the canal and team work, going through the locks. Everyone so friendly and helpful. Beautiful scenery and countryside, lovely pubs and eating establishments along the way.

Your recent holiday on Goose - White Fronted Goose from Hilperton

Staff were friendly and helpful. Nothing too much trouble. It was my special birthday and they provided cakes, biscuits, balloons, serviettes with the welcome pack. It was a locely surprise. The boat was well equipped and with instruction given we set off on our adventure. We all had a fantastic time and would definitely go on a canal boat holiday again and would definitely use ABC Boat Hire again.

Your recent holiday on Warbler - Magnolia Warbler from Wrenbury

This was the first time for us and it certainly won’t be our last. We absolutely loved being on the canals. ABC were so understanding about us getting stuck in traffic and getting there a little late. Everyone was friendly and approachable. We will definitely be doing our next canal boat trip through ABC

Your recent holiday on Swift - Tepui Swift from Aldermaston Wharf

Too expensive for 3 nights.

Your recent holiday on Swift - Tepui Swift from Aldermaston Wharf

Allover rating is good. The personnel was very friendly. But we were given wrong info about trash removal and water resupply. It is just not possible „almost everywhere“ on the canal. And we were promised a call about fuel consumption - that never happened. Last but not least - the change between canal and river was quite challenging, especially in the vicinity of the pub The Rowbarge. This is not something for beginners. You should pay more attention to explaining how to navigate a boat. Luckily I am not a beginner.
