Great Trips on Water in Europe

Boats may not be as fast as, say, a plane or car or indeed a bus but it is in my opinion one of the most pleasurable, floating away the days with time to take in the scenery around you.

Boats may not be as fast as, say, a plane or car or indeed a bus but it is in my opinion one of the most pleasurable, floating away the days with time to take in the scenery around you. Another huge positive with travelling by boat is that you are likely to see places which no car, bus or plane could take you to.

A river for example is not man made therefore man built around the river and not the other way, this lends itself to some wonderful sights whilst travelling on a river. Anyway here are a coupe of my favourite ways and places to travel on water.

Canal boat in the UK

A truly beautiful way of seeing England and Wales is to take a canal boat or barge and meander though the canals that ‘built Britain’ these canal were used heavily in the industrial revolution and are a hugely popular attraction today, hell some people live on these canals. Because of the popularity there are many pubs and restaurants built towards the canal so you will never be more than a lock away from a hearty meal, then you can lay on the roof of your barge and spend a night with the stars!!
