Travel Tips
There are loads of boat operators on this stretch, Sherbourne Wharf is the main dropping off point, this is in Gas Street Basin, you will find plenty of choice. This one below offers 1 hour trips, pay as you go, you just turn up, added the phone number if you want to telephone for info.

Second City Boats :
0121 236 9811

There is also

They 4 run trips every day, but they stress that you must book first, their tel no is 0121-455-6163, they describe their trips as City Heritage Tours, I have actually done one and can highly rec it.

Hope that helps

When I was there last week you could just wait at one of the pick up/drop off points there were about 3 I saw along the way (close to the NIA)
I dont think you need to book to go on a canal ride. I went on it not too long agao, and me and my mate just turned up and got on the boat. You might want to ring them up and find out for sure.
Hi check out some of these, they might help and look for gas street Birmingham.

Good luck.
