Best for First-time visitors - Expert review of Windermere Lake Cruises
The quintessential Lakes experience.
The best way to explore the Lakes is on the water. Both the Keswick and Coniston launches offer water-bound cruises but this Bowness-based operation is the daddy of them all.
The four colour-coded cruises combine the best of the views with a practical means to connect between major Lakeland hubs.
Price advice:
Cruises from £6.75; children aged 5-15 £3.40; under fives free.
Check out the the array of combination tickets – see website link above for details.
Particularly good value is the Freedo of the Lakes Pass.
Under fives and children travel free.
Expert tips:
Save the queues at the pier-side ticket office, you can now book online in advance.
High-season cruises can get crowded but off-season offers the best of the views.
Ditch the car – the cruise is a surprisingly good way to get around the key attractions on a short trip.
