Cruising the beautiful inland waterways of England and Wales, from Autherley Junction

Located at the junction of the Shropshire Union and the Staffs & Worcs Canals, Water Travel has an extensive choice of routes for our customers, whether you want a one week or two week cruise or a short break.

If you have never been boating before, be assured that driving your own narrowboat is a very easy and every customer receives full instruction from one our staff before setting off. You will enjoy what is a very relaxing and friendly holiday.

Canal cruising with Water Travel is the ideal adventure holiday for all age groups. It can be as relaxing or as energetic as you care to make it.

We are proud of our boats and we want you to be proud to cruise in them. We keep them in first class condition inside and out. Many of our visitors cruise with us again and again.

We can supply extended bunk sides for the younger members of your family, and also have a number of Econowash pressure washing machines which can be made available free of charge.

Safety is uppermost in our minds, and each boat carries a certificate of compliance with British Waterways standards of safety for hire craft. In addition to your boats standard safety equipment, buoyancy aids are available for every member of your party upon request.
