Summer Evening Cruise On Leeds Dock Water Taxis

This year marks the 10th anniversary of our beloved water taxis. To celebrate, we will be hosting a series of summer evening cruises, travelling from Leeds Dock to Knostrop Lock and back. Guests can enjoy a 60-minute river cruise on our iconic water taxis, Twee and Drie, taking in stunning views of the waterfront, diverse wildlife, and rich heritage along the way.

To make your evening more special, we encourage all guests to bring a picnic on board.

Our summer evening cruise will run from Friday, 19 July, and continue every Friday and Saturday from 6:30pm to 7:30pm until September. Tickets are £12 per person, and children under 3 travel FREE!
