Christmas boat trips with Santa at Stanley Ferry, Wakefield
Spend 1.5 hours travelling the canals and rivers on the historic narrow boat Apollo. Built in 1929 Apollo is a fine example of how a working narrow boat should be. Spend some time being the cargo in the open hold of this spectacular vessel. You can engage with navigation and history as much as you like with the guidance of our local expert skippers, or just sit back and relax. The choice is yours.
On these festive christmas trips Santa will be joining us and every child 12 and under will recieve a lovely gift from him.
Feel free to bring your own food, drink and enjoy the festivities. A great experience for all (dogs welcome).
Under 1 years of age not needing a gift are free and don't require a ticket.
SANTA WON'T BE ON THE LAST TRIP ON SUNDAY AS HE HAS TO GET TO BED EARLY FOR ALTERNATIVE SEASONAL WORK BUT GIFTS WILL STILL BE GIVEN ON HIS BEHALF
