For those of us in the UK who have been boating on our canals for many years, it is fascinating to see your reactions as you are experiencing them for the first time. It is great to see you enjoying yourselves so much !

[@Yesica1993]

I'm in America and his first video on this was the first I even learned of these canals and that people can use them! (For reasons other than perhaps business/commercial.)

Totally agree.

[@ike1660]

@@Yesica1993 No real commercial use anymore, unless you count the narrowboat rental companies. If you're interested, there's a whole ecosystem of narrowboating YT channels!

[@vickdin480]

There’s nothing sweeter than being able to afford the luxury of traveling to different locations as enchanting and beautiful as this

[@NathanElcoate]

It's certainly aspirational! My Wife and I are definately on a 10 year goal to do a canal boat holiday.

[@kirstyharrison1825]

Middlewich is a lovely place and my hometown

[@snowiestbison]

A true gift 🙏

[@theslushboat]

Thanks again guys for pulling my boat in and mooring it back up. This often happens when boats cruise past too fast, it can also happen if it was poorly moored up to start with. Great video...

[@DownieLive]

Oh no way! That was you?!? So fun that you got to watch the video! No worries SlushBoat

[@raverdeath100]

the thing about Britain's canals is that they really did kickstart the modern world. not only transporting iron and coal, they enabled the delivery of fresh food, milk and produce to the towns and London which in turn enabled the industrial revolution in Britain. both improving the economy and general health, they were the super highways of the day.

[@zeitghost1321]

To a great country who gets much too much unfair criticism I want to say Thank You for the Industrial Revolution. The world owes you a debt of gratitude

[@the.abhiram.r]

@@zeitghost1321although britain did some terrible things with colonization, they indirectly helped modernize the world and made it safer to live in

[@zeitghost1321]

@the.abhiram.r I agree. It was an exchange. Only the most negative characterisation is recognized in current times, unfortunately.

[@THEGODROD]

Being an American who’s lived in Michigan my whole life. The locks remind me of our locks and the freighters that travel up and down the lakes at all hours of the day though they’re bigger than your typical narrow boat. Still very cool.

[@adiwest]

I actually grew up in most of the places in this video. The flight of locks was somewhere me & my friend used to play on, and then we realised that people would pay you if you did the locks for them. In the summer we used to make a lot of money at the weekends getting tips from all the boaters on those 3 locks! We would work from 8am for a few hours and then at lunchtime we’d go for a bike ride and spend the money that we’d earned. Great video! And it wad great to see you in my old home town, since I’ve just recently discovered your channel 😎👍🏽

[@nickpapagiorgio5056]

The UK canal system is such an untapped getaway! So many people outside of the UK and Wales no absolutely nothing about this amazing activity and way of life even for so many Brits. Nothing but peace, serenity, and nature for over 2000 miles. An amazing historical masterpiece of British innovation and culture! Thank you so much for bringing us along! It’s like the “it’s a small world” Disney ride but for adults! Lol😊

[@ONLYJOKING101]

I work in a supermarket right next to a canal and the range of people using it is amazing. You get American tourists, European tourists, older live aboards and young hippy type live aboards. Quite the eclectic mix.

[@allieg3223]

This is so unique, at least for me as an American. I've always known about the canals and narrowboats in England and Wales but never really learned about them. Thank you so much for bringing us beautiful experiences, scenery and fascinating history and architecture.

[@DaveCroft-w1d]

I have pleasure in telling you (and confessing) that I seriously thought OMG North American on a canal boat ...this is just going to be rubbish ... I ABSOLUTELY LOVE your high energy informative style - really do feel like I'm sharing the journey with you. You guys rock!

[@RogerLetour]

Well done, Mike! I even had my wife watching this. Absolutely fascinating, I had no idea this system of canals even existed.

[@DownieLive]

Glad to hear it Roger!

[@janentomenkafka]

Western Europe has a similar network of rivers and canals. You can sail from the Mediterranean to Paris, Brussels, Amsterdam or Berlin only using inland waterways... if you have the time. We know a (retired) New Zealand couple who bought a boat in the Netherlands. Every spring they arrive in Europe to continue their travels. Early autumn they go back home, where spring has started. They leave their boat in a marina and pick it up the next spring.

[@glendaigle1]

I am obsessed with this trip!! Lots of boating here in Louisiana, but I need canals in my life.

[@janellevoigt5481]

More quiet than a track, less bumpy too, must kind of feel like your sleeping on a water bed, and like you said, a Disney ride to boot. Thanks Mike and Nicole. Loved the video and congratulations to your newly wed friends!

[@CaseyBDook]

Good stuff Mike. I'm a BC boy too. You're representing us as the curious bunch we are. For anyone in another country, this is what western Canadian tourists are like. Totally intense about the beauty of the place we visit. We come from a place that is epic in it's beauty and we seek that in our destinations. British Columbia has been a wonderful resource of curious Canadians seeking interesting adventures on you tube. I couldn't be more grateful to be Canadian at the moment.

[@Devastatia669]

This comment couldn't be more true. My boyfriend lives in BC, when he comes to visit me in the UK he's always amazed at the things that I probably take for granted because I've seen them so often. I'm probably the same when I travel to visit him though, this little country is nearly four times smaller than your Province and everything is so different and I find things beautiful that he finds just ordinary and part of every day life.

[@robbybobbyhobbies]

I'm a Brit from a little east of this canal. Now living in Whistler, BC. I feel the same awe for the surroundings I've found myself in and the places I visit.

[@Trektrendy]

I enjoyed this so much, what a wholesome experience and captured so brilliantly Mike. Can't wait to see next week :)

[@DownieLive]

Thanks Will! I’d love to see you and Millie on a narrowboat someday!

[@DownieLive]

Loved the big grin on your face when you were going through the long tunnel. "This is soooo coooool." You tha man, Mike.

[@kencase2179]

Mike, Nicole, Gareth and Helen, The countryside in the UK is so beautiful. I can't wait to see what the next two episodes have to show us. Thank you for bringing us along on this adventure. Gareth and Helen, CONGRATULATIONS on your marriage!

Hi. My husband had wanted to do this someday, has now changed his mind seeing how much works goes with this with the lochs. I’m glad we watch your videos!Thanks Mike.

[@durlead5103]

I can only say, if you have enjoyed this, then maybe you would also enjoy taking daytrips through the Spreewald in Germany. It is very beautiful in spring and summer, and while you don't live on a boat you also take the whole day discovering a big network of beautiful canals through a lush green landscape. Just a small recommendation from me ^^

[@billmiller1445]

A great episode. Gareth and Helen a welcome edition. Nichole always fabulous and awesome. Was not aware of the canals so wonderful series. Ans yes, Mike. You're doing stellar work as usual. Looking forward to next week.

[@drmbj]

You are an example of us living vicariously through your life because some of us will never be able to do these things. I find it fascinating as well. Thank you so much! 😊

[@starlakelsey2782]

First I wanted to travel the USA by train. Now I've tossed that notion and want to go to the UK and tour the canals. It is just the most fun looking thing to do!

[@DownieLive]

It’s so fun!

[@carl48uk]

Starla, I can tell you from experience , that if you are suffering from any form of mental health issues, then get on a narrowboat holiday for a week. After one day cruising the canal in the countryside, you will experience your shoulders getting a lot lighter and that smile getting wider and wider.. I had a boat on the midland canals and it was by far the best money per experience spent.. You can't do anything quickly and have to slow down.... It's great !!

[@kennethneece4838]

Canal traveling looks like fun and as you have pointed out that there’s those challenges to overcome and they can be overcome when you have friends along too!

[@BenMaxson23]

Sooooo excited for this series! You have the BEST Narration around! You get just the Most Excited about your adventures and love it even more that your bringing your significant other along for the series. Love the travels by rail series but also love that you are branching out. Keep up that great content!

[@PsychGeekCai]

Now that you’re a pro at going through locks, you should come to Ontario, we have plenty of locks and even some lift locks, including the Peterborough Lift Lock which is the highest hydronic lift lock in the world and the Kirkfield Lift Lock, and then the Big Chute Marine Railway which is really cool too, it lifts your boat right out of the water. All of them are along the Trent Severn Waterway which is a historic site. There’s 42 historic lock stations and it runs between Georgian bay and Lake Ontario. The experience will be slightly different though, because the Parks Canada staff operate the locks here in Ontario, so you just have to navigate your boat.

[@brianfraser2495]

No canals out in western Canada. Yours would be the closest.

[@niceguy5976]

I am really enjoying this series. This is certainly one of the most interesting vacations I that I have ever seen. Looking forward to the next episode.

[@mraidymaddful]

A friend of mine I used to know years ago had a small canal boat. I spent a week with him on it up near Skipton. It was so relaxing to sleep at night with the gentle rocking of the water. And where I live now in Hudderfield, overlooks our canal.

Great storytelling and adventures happy you could share it with friends. My parents loved the Falkirk Wheel connecting Forth and Clyde Canals

[@liisahancock2125]

Cows are my favorite, too! Definitely need to plan a boat canal tour. Thanks for sharing.

[@jaimeknoble3315]

The scenery is absolutely stunning, especially with your amazing drone footage. I would love to go to the UK, I'm just blown away by the old, beautiful buildings and the canals and the nature. The lift and the concrete boats were crazy interesting and you always make the history lesson really fun. The locks seemed like such a pain in the butt to have to do, but still so impressive and engaging to watch and learn about. Miss Mary Mack had me cracking up and remembering the good ole days back on the elementary school playground 😂

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Omg a Mini-Moon THAT IS SO CUTE! Wishing Gareth and Helen all the best. Also, what an introduction to Gareth indeed 😂

[@noelmurray8052]

this is such a great series already. I mean this in the nicest way possible but I love nicole's sardonic vibe playing the foil to the usual tone of your videos. This seems like such a good couples vacation

[@radicalnomad1]

These series have singlehandedly put narrow boating very high on my bucket list when I visit the UK

[@NickGoesFar]

That lift is a total engineering marvel! They could probably produce an entire show about it, just the engineering challenges, construction, etc. Very cool to see it in operation.

[@julieatherton4530]

I'm loving this new boating series, mostly because this is my neck of the woods. 😁 Northwich is my local town. I live in a village about 3 miles away, in between Acton Bridge and Anderton. In fact many years ago I used to work for the Black Prince holidays at Acton Bridge where you picked your boat up from. We go to Anderton often in the summer to walk the trails there. Such a beautiful place. Was great seeing my home town from the river too. Gives a completely different perspective. I hope you enjoyed your journey. Earlier this year we visited Falkirk in Scotland to see the only other boat lift on the canals, the Falkirk Wheel. Was great comparing it to the Anderton boat lift. A canal boat holiday is definitely on mine and my husbands "to do" list. One of my sisters friends lives on a canal boat, such a peaceful, relaxing pace of life. 👍

[@johntaylor1759]

Mike your enthusiasm and joy is so infectious you are a delight to watch, thank you for that.

[@scubarider1]

That was a great video. I had been looking forward to this one since your first one was finished and I can hardly wait for the third one. You did a fantastic job of explaining the canal network and how everything works. Incredible scenery everywhere!

[@FlyFree2023]

I enjoyed your first episode and the second steps up a notch - brilliant. I'm fortunate to live the life you have filmed in such a positive Vlog. Its akin to the welcome I have always received in visiting BC and Alberta over 20 years. Life is out there to explore and thanks for all your Vlogs that inspire that human desire. Onwards to episode three. 👍

I grew up taking holidays on the canals This brought back so many good memories Best videos you’ve done so far

[@The_PaleHorseman]

So a cool train/canal fact for you Downie! In Cincinnati the Miami and Erie Canal use to run through Cincinnati from the Ohio River all the way up to Toledo and the Great Lakes, they dried the canal up and proceeded to place a subway in the canal beds previous spot, after getting 6 miles of the tunnel done, they abandoned the subway and it’s still there to this very day under Central parkway in Cincinnati, the largest abandoned subway in the United States. Even has station platforms. Cool mixture because you like trains, history, and canals!

[@feel_goodpaintingsandlifea715]

Your videos are so tranquil and beautiful just like Beautiful Wales.. I lived in England for 10 years then came back to India.. England , Wales and Scotland they are all amazingly beautiful places, people are so friendly and welcoming ❤️💕

[@Badjester1]

We did a couple of narrow boat holidays as a family years ago in this area. We don't have canals around Newcastle in the UK. The nearest is either Scotland or Leeds. Last week I booked a week over Christmas for me and my Dad. He's obsessed with narrow boats. Cant wait for a peaceful week away over Christmas in the Midlands countryside 😁

[@knowledgeispowermediaprodu7094]

The countryside is so beautiful!!! These videos allow me to travel the world even though I'm not able to leave Joshua Tree, Ca. as I take care of my parents. But it's all good. I'm blessed to still have both of my parents even though I'm 50. Good times!

[@sksunshine4860]

Hilarious!! I learned that clapping song 39 years ago in Grade 4 but it was Miss Lulu had a steamboat...This is amazing, all part of my heritage and places I have never seen so thank you!

[@beverlystewart1096]

Spent many happy hours in Camden Town, in London, watching the boats go through the lock. Fascinating!

[@bryancohn9406]

The locks reminded me of a work trip to Canadian Motorsports Park (Mosport) in Bowmanville way back in 1988 where we took a detour to Lock 21 in Peterborough on the Trent Canal. It was a mind blowing experience, the engineering, as it was originally built in 1904, rebuilt in the 1980’s. It is a boat elevator using water pressure from the weight of the downstream lift to raise the upstream lift and vise versa. Amazing, simply amazing. I’d been through normal locks on the Missouri River and while interesting they were nothing compared to the Lock Lift 21! Loving this narrow boat series, learning lots as a bonus.

[@lotanerve]

Yeah, a work trip to Mosport, tough times. And to go to the Peterborough Lift Lock also is just a bonus. A 65 foot difference in hight.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

So happy in the knowledge that Mike is one of those people who likes all forms of trivia and enjoys tidbits of history.

[@hermandegroot1946]

Your video's are well made and very entertaining. Thirty minutes well spent. My wife and I (70 and 76) are since februari 2020 in quarantaine. We weren't in any shop since then.. Everything comes by post. So I watch youtube almost all day long. Many travel video's. RV's , bikes, trains, your trains and much more. ( US politics) Very famous.....

[@kevinh.w.crabbe8748]

This is so beautiful to explains all this through your eyes. Aren’t you a video all the way to Alberta Canada and bloody marvellous to keep on seeing the canals still running today from 1800s on thank God the Queen kept up with the digestion of the canals

[@cindygasaway8600]

Love this series! From seeing the beautiful scenery to the meals on the longboat, it is FUN! I mean, seriously, we laughed out loud 😂.

[@timsands7288]

Another great episode: you seem to have been unlucky with pubs serving dinner. I live in an old canalside pub that hasn't been serving dinners to passing boaters since 1945😀

[@Sim0nTrains]

Second episode was brilliant around Cheshire, I live next to Cheshire in Staffordshire but Cheshire has some good lovely areas. Enjoyed the Anderton Boat Lift and even know I'm from the UK, I did learnt that any town with 'Wich' on end is a Salt town and I honestly didn't knew that! Brilliant Video.

There's so much more to this than I ever would have imagined. My first impression was that it would be just idyllically drifting through pastoral scenery, but these locks and tunnels make it a challenge (not to mention pubs closed on Mondays). Looking forward to next week.

Grew up with the Chesterfield canal at the end of the garden.....as kids it was our playground, wilderness on the doorstep, dens in the reeds, fishing, canoeing involving unvoluntary swimming.... Camping in the garden to get up at 4am and sit on the canal bank(towpath) hoping for a tench or a magical glimpse of a Kingfisher.... Halcyon days

What an experience. This was totally engaging. I knew everything would turn out ok but it still gripped me with anticipation. Glad you made it through.👍🏻🙏😎

[@mrnibs2010]

i use to spend many weekends and weeks for a few years on a friends GRP boat cruising up and down between Sheffield and the river hull with a huge amount of locks and bridges to operate. it use to take us 24hrs to go 20 miles but we didn't care. Rotherham where my mates boat use to be moored up has an oil tanker come down the canal a few times a week and its bridge sinks into the boat when approaching low bridges. we met so many amazing people who use to live on the canals and i was very jealous of their lifestyle. one couple rented their home out as a holiday let for 6 months and in the winter the boat sat in the dry dock. the 6 months rent and pensions paid for it all and an alternative to selling you house as some canals shut down in the winter months for lock maintenance so in the winter you have to plan ahead or get stuck 😉 😀

[@leanneharris3191]

Thank you for this Mike it’s interesting. Love the scenery, Wales is beautiful.

[@evecottom9966]

Rewatching this series as I await the next UK canal adventure. HOPEFULLY it's in the hands of your amazing editors. Maybe you will return to Canada and do the Trent Severn waterway for both the Big Chute marine railway in Coldwater, Ontario and the highest Hydraulic lift lock in the world in Peterborough.

[@DownieLive]

I definitely want to ride those one day soon

[@FROMKYLE2U]

My week has been so busy that I'm finally getting to see this.... so worth the wait !!! Once again you deliver.... Thank you and be well

[@terrybc7004]

Wow Mike what an amazing trip this has been. Looks like Nicole is really enjoying this vacation. So nice of you to take her along, especially when you did the 2 Train series. Speaking of Canals, I think both Nicole & yourself are due for a Panama Canal Cruise & then see the size of those Locks. It's on my Bucket List!

[@gilliandawnnuttall6782]

Just discovered your travel vlogs are we are coming over to vancouver whistler and tofino in summer. Then spotted this boat lift which is about a 30 minute drive from where we live in the UK. Small big world! We're loving the travel vlogs and the Vancouver, BC videos have been fab!

[@catherinewoods3132]

The clapping song so brought me back to my childhood! Fabulous views.

[@johnforrest695]

Just stumbled across this. FTR we moored in virtually the same spot as that boat you found adrift and were woken up first thing to be told we were not tied up. Basically somebody had untied us overnight - the youths who were hanging around the nearby playground were the likely culprits. I've seen another you tube video where the same thing happened. It looks great but turns out not a good place to moor :(

[@awilliamsbsm]

Can’t believe you were in Nantwich, where I live after following you for years! Such a small world! Really enjoying the series, as always

[@DownieLive]

So cool!

[@chris-cole]

Another wonderful episode in your narr9wboat adventures! Great teamwork getting through those locks, really helps to have an experienced person with you but it's common sense for the mostpart. Im actuallt rather envious because I've only been on a narrowboat a very short time, I'm still trying to convince my wife to try a narrowboat holiday for a week. I have my daily fix of narrowboat and canals because I live literally minites from Worsley on the Bridgwater Canal which is very historic! The epicentre of the Industrial Revolution, and the first canal purpose built for industrial purposes 🙂

Thanks!
