Great cruise, as usual - fabulous food and really enjoyed the company of my fellow passengers.

John and Claire - Sept 23 - Banbury to Aldermaston

Firstly it was brilliant spending time with Henry - 'The Best Dog in the World' (he really is). Secondly the humans were amazing, anticipating our every need. Teaching us about 'Canal Time'. The scenery and company lovely. The food was awe-inspiring we walked on board and rolled off! How you produce such yummy food from your kitchen area is nothing short of miraculous. Thank you.

Jackie & Lorraine - Sept 23 - Banbury to Aldermaston

How do you sum up a perfect week - with great difficulty. The company, the food, canal life all contributed to an ideal vacation. Thank you to the team and of course Henry, the Wonder Dog. We are looking forward to our next cruise with you, hopefully in 2025. Very best wishes.

Sandra - UK - Sept 23 - Aldermaston to Bradford on Avon

A great trip, nothing too much trouble for the team. Food to die for. Fun company and I so enjoyed doing to locks etc after so manhy years away from the 'cut'. Keep doing what you do so well. Hope to join you again some day.

Val -Devon - Sept 23 - Aldermaston to Bradford on Avon

Another wonderful week. Thank you for all your kindness and for looking after us so well - and for the great meals! And all the lovely experiences on the canal. See you next year.

Sandra - Chelmsford - Sept 23 - Aldermaston to Bradford on Avon

I have been on so many trips on board Duke No3 and always think 'how can this be beaten' But yet again it has. Fantastic time with one previous and one new guest, lovely people. As always the team complete the 'perfect' holiday. Thank you, see you next year.

Gillian - Isle of Man - Sept 23 - Bradford on Avon to Devizes

I'll remember this one as 'the rainy trip'. We had drizzle; short, sharp showers and a day and a half of unremitting biblical downpours! Despite it all it was still a great holiday - superb food (of course), good company, a wonderful route through Bath & Bristol and brilliant teamwork on a clockwork ascent of the Caen Hill Flight. You can open & close paddles with an umbrella handle under your chin, who knew? And, best of all, cuddles and belly rubs for Henry.

Ruth & Gill - Oxford - Sept 23 - Bradford on Avon to Devizes

Enjoyed the trip - despite some rather wet weather. Excellent food - thanks.

Beryl - Cornwall - Sept 23 - Bradford on Avon to Devizes

Third time with Duke No3 & another enjoyable week. Weather could have been a little better but could have been a lot worse. Excellent food and banter as usual. Thanks for coping with my requests for half and three quarter cups of tea/coffee. Was proud to be past of well co-ordinated team going up the middle Cain 16 flight. We were lucky first up at 10am. If I don't pick up a cancellation next year then hope to be back the year after. Thanks once again.
