Top Leeds Cruises & Sailing

Yorkshire's countryside is at its best away from the roads, along the quiet canals you can't reach on foot. This cruise takes you out onto the water with a traditional Yorkshire afternoon tea served on board—sandwiches, scones, and desserts—as the barge moves through the countryside.

A meal out and a look at the Yorkshire countryside usually mean doing two separate things. This canal cruise from Skipton rolls them into one, serving a roast dinner aboard a traditional barge as the countryside and canalside drift past from the water. A bar on board sells soft and alcoholic drinks, and the route passes points of local history along the way, including the Polish Airmen Memorial marking a wartime bomber crash on the canal bank.
