Viking Afloat is one of Britain's largest and most successful boating holiday operators. First time boaters are given a friendly welcome by everybody.
But you won't be inexperienced for very long, for within a short time you will be gliding serenely around the first bend into a whole new and different world
A canal boat holiday will introduce you to one of Britain's best kept secrets, the 2000 mile network of waterways and navigations, for which the craft was specially designed, that meander across some of the most beautiful countryside, and past pubs, cottages and warehouses. Here you will discover the Britain most tourists miss on their holidays.
Your canal boat will be fully equipped with every modern amenity, so self-catering becomes a pleasure, but there are also many canalside pubs, once essential 'staging posts' for the working boats of the last century, which are now popular watering holes for holiday boaters; and most offer great food at reasonable prices.
There is nothing quite like a holiday on Britain's Inland waterways. Camaraderie when you meet other boaters, friendliness when you tie up at the pub for a drink or a meal.
A holiday of contrasts, taken at a slow pace. The variety is endless, city, town, village and country, wide and narrow canals and rivers. Every bend brings forth some new feature. You can never see it all, no matter how many times you return.
But why worry? A canal boat holiday is for relaxation, for unwinding from every day pressures, for doing what you like, when you like.
