Both Water Taxis are running daily, 7 days a week, 10am - 6pm, unless updated otherwise.

Hop aboard for a scenic 15 minute cruise between Leeds train station and Leeds Dock, right by the Royal Armouries. The best way to see the city from the water! See you on board.

IT'S BACK!
Last year's Summer Cruise sold out — and it's back for August! ⛴️
Join us every Friday & Saturday, 6:30–7:30pm, for a laid-back evening cruise along the Leeds Dock waterways. Bring a picnic, bring a friend, and watch the sunset from the water.
Spaces are limited (they went fast last time!) — book now to avoid missing out. 🎟️

Enjoy a 60-minute river cruise from Leeds Dock to Knostrop Lock and back
