So don't take our word for it, see what thousands of our customers are saying about us!
The boat was clean and very well equipped. We were impressed with the handover. The beds and lounge areas were comfortable and the kitchen and bathrooms great. We enjoyed every moment of the trip, especially going over the aquaduct. Would 100% recommend ABC boat hire!

A fantastic experience hiring Day Escape. She’s incredibly easy to navigate up the canal, and going on a trip down memory lane up to Marston Doles was just wonderful.
