What to expect
You'll board the Dalesman canal boat and settle in as the cruise departs. The bar is operational from start to finish, so you can order drinks straightaway using your 5 tokens or purchase additional rounds. Live music plays throughout to set the mood. You're free to move about the boat, chat with other passengers, and visit the bar as often as you like during the 2 hours.
Towards the end of the cruise, the boat returns to the departure point. There's no formal schedule or activity — it's a relaxed float with drinks and music as the main features.

Good to know
This suits adults looking for a casual social outing with alcohol in a scenic setting. It's not a sightseeing tour or activity-focused experience — the appeal is the cruise itself, the bar, and company. No fitness or mobility barriers exist. The 5 tokens typically cover a basic drink or two; premium cocktails or spirits may incur extra cost. Soft drinks and juices are available for non-drinkers or drivers. Service animals are permitted. Public transport is nearby if you need it. Strictly adults only — no under-18s.
