Want to explore London from a different perspective? Swap walkways for waterways by jumping on one of The London Waterbus Company’s pretty narrowboats. The boat trips run along the Regent’s Canal linking up some of the most picturesque parts of the city including Little Venice, Regent's Park, London Zoo and Camden Lock.
The 45-minute one-way trips run one-way in either direction from Camden Lock or Little Venice. Each boat has big windows so as you cruise down the canal you can see views of warthogs and monkeys in London Zoo and get the full echoey experience of floating through the Madia Hill tunnel. There’s also onboard commentary which explains the history of the famous waterway.
Warwick Avenue is the closest tube if you are catching the boat from Little Venice. Standard adult fare £15 and child £11. Times vary, see website for the latest timetables.
