Off The Beaten Path: Narrowboat Hire
  • Tip Rating:
  • Based in Worcester is a company called Viking Afloat.... a company specialising in Canal and waterway holidays.
    They offer narrowboat hire on 4 different itineries departing from Lowesmoor Wharf in Worcester (very close to the City Centre).
    Travelling along the canals of the Midlands you will experience sights and sounds you wouldn't see anywhere else.
    The Worcester-Birmingham canal as the name suggests links Worcester (at The River Severn, Diglis Basin) with Birmingham. Once at Birmingham the whole network of English canals are at your disposal. It's said Birmingham has more canals than Venice!!!
    What better way to explore Worcestershire than by narrowboat.... each night you can moor right next to a pub... Brilliant!!!

     Fantastic page! I have had Lea & Perrins Worcestershire sauce many times -- glad to know more about from where it comes. Also, really liked the tip about The Cardinals Hat. Best from New Jersey, Bill
