So don't take our word for it, see what thousands of our customers are saying about us!
From the first contact with ABC I received excellent customer service. Which in this day is disappointing rare. All my questions were responded to quickly and fully. The boat I hired from Gailey was well equipped and spotless. The staff at Gailey exceptional. Full tour of boat together with instruction on engine and handling was easy to understand. Perfect holiday !

We had a brilliant time. The boat was clean and comfortable. This was a present for my husband who had wanted to go on a barge for sometime, he really enjoyed stearing the boat. Will definately book for longer than a day in future.

I would certainly recommend them. I just found the centreline on the boat about 1 metre too short for comfort.

Thank you so much for your recommendation and for sharing your feedback! We're really pleased to hear you had a positive experience overall. We appreciate your comment about the centreline length—it’s helpful to know and we’ll certainly take it into consideration for future improvements. We hope to welcome you back again soon for another great day on the water!
