ABC Boat Hire is strongly recommended! The booking process was really straight forward. The information provided on ABC web pages was very comprehensive, and complete. Every question, or request, we hade during booking and afterwards was immediatly replied to in a professional manner. Payments went smoothly. Upon arrival at Wrenbury we really felt welcome, and we were well taken care of by the staff. Our boat was exactly as described, and in perfect condition.

It would have been 5 stars but we were a little disappointed not to be able to go as far as we had wanted due to the lock restrictions.

We could not have asked for a better trip, the service was brilliant. Our day trip boat was out of action so got upgraded to a full size canal boat which was amazing. The staff were very welcoming and brilliant when it came to explaining how to use the boat. I had never piloted a canal boat before but it was very easy, espicalliy after Richard at Whitchurch marina showd us how to do things. My family and I will be looking book again next year, we can't wait. Thank you again for your great service Regards The Nevill family.
