Highlights

This is the best 60 minutes of rib-tickling historic escapism you can find in Skipton. Your guide for the canal tour is award-winning comedian Dave Spikey of Phoenix Nights and 8 Out of 10 Cats fame. With his characteristic Northern patter, Dave takes you on a recorded whistle-stop tour of Skipton and shares canal history that’s refreshingly different from your average commentary. Above the jokes and laughter, you hear points of interest and fascinating stories of how the Leeds & Liverpool Canal delivered the lifeblood of the industrial-revolution through Yorkshire. There’s food and drink on board, too, so it’s a fun twist on your lunchtime break. Our lively canal trip proves you don’t have to let planning or nasty weather get in the way of a good time.

  • 4Good Fun And Relaxing….

    A very good leisurely cruise along the Liverpool to Leeds canal in a comfortable vintage canal boat. As mentioned on previous reviews the commentary was informative and humorous. Once out of Skipton town the countryside was impressive. A good ‘chill out’ hour with good views.

    Really enjoyed our hour afloat despite the fact we were staying at The Skipton Hotel so had walked the route a few times! The commentary was hilarious. We thought it might be a free for all getting on but it was very well organised and our reserved seats were on the front row so we had a great view. We had hoped to book the afternoon tea cruise but it was fully booked. We would definitely go again.

About Leeds

Leeds is West Yorkshire's big city, a Victorian centre of arcades and markets with galleries, a waterfront and the Yorkshire Dales within reach.

Leeds grew in the nineteenth century on wool, cloth and engineering, and its Victorian centre shows it in the grand Town Hall, the oval Corn Exchange and the glass-roofed shopping arcades of the Victoria Quarter. Kirkgate Market is one of the biggest covered markets in Europe, and it is where Michael Marks first set up the penny bazaar that grew into a national retailer.
