- Skipton Boat Trips - The building that now houses our ticket office is one of the oldest canal related buildings in the area, dating to 1774 and is grade II listed. It was originally a warehouse for goods being transported on the canal, hence the large cranes outside- one facing the canal, the other facing our cobbled car park, formerly stables for horses towing the craft. Somewhere near the site of the wharf, although the exact location is now lost, was Winterwell Hall, a medieval manor whose remains were lost during the building of the canal basin.

Fish and Chip Cruise - Took my mum and dad on a fish and chip canal cruise with my partner tonight. They haven't stopped smiling since they got on board. We all loved every minute of it. Excellent quality food and the crew could not do enough for you ...they were brilliant. Drinks are so reasonably priced as well.
Even though it was dark, floodlights on the boat lit up both banks so the canal could be viewed differently.
Would give 6 stars out of 5.
100% recommend a trip.

Lovely way to spend 2 hours. - Lovely 2 hours spent admiring the beautiful views travelling up and back along the canal. Tasty sandwiches, scones and cakes and as much tea and coffee as you liked. Option to purchase a drink from the bar too. Staff were all very friendly and efficient. We all very much enjoyed our trip.

Great time, great staff, great afternoon tea and great gluten free bread! - This was a most enjoyable trip with friends. The boat team were very friendly, welcoming and informative.
The “Afternoon Tea” boat was very comfortable and the onboard loos (always telling) were impeccable!
Your table is assigned and drinks are offered. Endless tea and coffee are included but we chose wine and beer from the bar at a reasonable cost.
The afternoon tea was quite substantial with a selection of sandwiches, scone with clotted cream and preserve and a selection of cakes.
I had the gluten free option with the nicest gluten free bread and cakes ever!
The trip takes a couple of hours and goes through the wonderful Skipton countryside with spectacular views

Great afternoon - Lovely trip on a quiet and pretty canal. Great to just pass the time and enjoy the scenery. Tea was a bit thin. Not the huge Yorkshire teas we are used to. However it was a good price so cannot really complain. Would certainly return.
