Itinerary

Enjoy an enchanting boat ride along the most beautiful stretch of Regent's Canal with a live musical performance on board by some of London's most spellbinding talent. Embark on your boat at Camden Lock and sail past the bustling Camden Market. Pass under Pirate Castle Bridge and watch couples and groups picnicking and having a drink along the canal side at Pirate Castle. Continue towards the Visitor Moorings, essentially the canal’s version of temporary parking spaces, where the canal boats can stay for up to a week before moving along to the next mooring spot. Here, admire breathtaking old and new canal boats. Next, sail past St. Marks Church and witness its neo-gothic architecture and vibrant flowers. Admire the iconic floating Chinese restaurant, Feng Shang Princess, before turning around at London Zoo and heading back to Camden.

We loved this musical boat ride, with a very nice and very British gondolier, and very pleasant English songs along a pretty tree-lined canal.

We came across this tour by chance and can definitely recommend this boat tour. The guides were very nice and relaxed, a fun activity. We were also able to explore the lively Camden Market district.

We arrived 15 mins before allotted time and were told to come back in 45 mins. We then waited a further 1 hour for the gondola to be filled before setting off. None of the staff spoke good English and (Read More) all the songs were sang in a language we didn’t understand. However me and my partner enjoyed the chilled aspect and music they were friendly if you could understand them. We wouldn’t choose this service again tho.

Very pleasant stroll on the canals with soft and very zen music. The musician knows how to adapt to his audience. To do, for another style of stroll.

Unusual means of transport - such an English longboat, super nice staff who helped with boarding when necessary. Our Irish musician accompanied the trip with guitar music and fine singing peppered wit (Read More)h humor, thank you for that, gladly again

The excursion simply could not take place because the person who welcomed us was apparently not aware that we had booked the tour with musician. There was no musician, the boat was full of water, old (Read More)furniture and tarpaulins. The man present was very rude, told me that I should have warned him that I had booked the tour with musician and that I should just get a refund if I was not happy. I have never been so badly received, a total lack of professionalism. Too bad because the offer is very tempting and I was very happy about it. To be avoided.
