Carl Cowlishaw, Operations Manager for Anglo WelshWe are delighted to announce that from 1 April to 30 September 2023, each day we’ll be offering five trips across the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, making it a ‘must-do’ activity at this world-famous Welsh site, visited by tens of thousands of people each year.”
Carl continued to add "Anglo Welsh has been providing canal boat holiday hire at Trevor for over 55 years, and since then we’ve given thousands of people the chance to experience the thrill of travelling across the UNESCO World Heritage status Pontcysyllte Aqueduct by boat. So that even more people can enjoy this ‘bucket list’ experience, we started offering self-drive day boats for hire in the 1990s and in 2021 we launched our ‘Little Star’ skippered trip boat."
