"The Open Boat ~ friendly independent tour" Top 5 Page for this destination Cardiff Bay AKA Tiger Bay Tip by aaaarrgh

Captain Ben drove the Cardiff Bay Water Buses for many years and, in April 2011, bought his own boat, called it "Daffodil" and started independent tours of the Bay. If you want the breeze in your hair, the smell of the salt water and an intelligent witty commentary then this is the boat tour for you. being an open sided boat it is great for taking photographs. He is the only gentle open boat tour on the Bay and is also popular with local TV journalists, weddings ...and funerals!

Even though I've known the area since I was a teenager I learnt many new things on the tour. You get a description ofthe buildings, the history, the celebrities - we even found out where BBC character Dr Who lives when they are filming the TV series!

Blankets are provided when the weather is cool. It is a small boat, so when the weather is very rough the tour may be shortened (and the price reduced).

Normal charge is £5 for adults.
