Take a canal cruise along the historic Regents Canal:

Canal Boat Cruises, Regent's Canal

Canal Boat Cruises, Regent's Canal

The Regent’s Canal runs from the Limehouse Basin in East London’s Docklands to Little Venice in north-west London’s Maida Vale. You can do canal cruises on the prettiest and most interesting section of the canal – between Camden Lock and Little Venice.

Canal Cruise Operators

Jenny Wren

Jenny Wren provides canal cruises on their traditional narrowboat at Camden. They have two trips a day – at 12.30 pm and 2.30 pm – leaving from their Camden waterside restaurant base. The cruise lasts one and a half hours.

Return fares:

Adult       – £9.00
Children – £4.50 Infants

Address:
Jenny Wren
250 Camden High Street
London, NW1
Tel: 020 7485 4433

Jason’s Trip

Jason’s Trip is the original Regent’s Canal tour. Jason is an authentic 100-year-old canal boat which was originally used as a cargo-vessel on the canals before being fitted with a diesel engine and converted to passenger-carrying duties.

The tour runs between Jason’s Wharf in Little Venice and Cafe Crema in Camden. It takes about forty-five minutes each way or one and a half hours round trip. On the leg from Little Venice up to Camden there is a live commentary from their trained guides who will tell you all about Regent’s Canal history from the 1800s to the present day.
