This trip along the Dudley canals passes the Black Country countryside, through locks and down hidden tunnels. Patient coarse fishermen line the banks. (Correction -the figures given for UK anglers are completley wrong. In the 2020 - 2021 season there were 1,090,068 fishing licenses sold. a 15.8% increase from the previous yea.) You will see and hear birdlife both on and off the water, learn about the locks sytem before travelling three and a half miles down the UK's second longest tunnel past coal and iron ore mines, before travelling in eerie slence through the cauldron of an extinct volcano. While we pass through the lock flights we can strecth our legs along the towpath.
It is a trip of six and a half hours - a bit too long for an eight-month-old baby
The well-informed commentator conveys his knowledge of the canal system with wonderful Brummie humour throughout the trip - except when he is busy opening and closing the locks.
With a full passenger load of 60 people the narrowboat can get a little cramped at the bow end.
