Yellow Cruise, Motor Museum & Aquarium
A great day out for the whole family at the southern tip of Windermere
Yellow Cruise is weekends only in January/early February |
This discounted ticket combines a beautiful half lake cruise on Windermere with a visit to two top attractions - Lakes Aquarium right next to Lakeside Pier and Lakeland Motor Museum that's a 15 mins drive away. This ticket is great for the whole family and combines stunning views from the water, and a fascinating insight into the heritage and wildlife of the local area. You should allow yourself at least 4 hours to make the most of this combined ticket, but you don't have to visit Lakeland Motor Museum on the same day - its valid for 5 days after your cruise & Aquarium visit.
Your ticket includes:
- A return Yellow Cruise from Bowness to Lakeside along the southern half of England's largest lake offering stunning views of woodlands, historic houses and beautiful gardens. A commentary is provided in either direction and the journey can be broken with a visit to Bowness village - home of numerous shops, pubs and restaurants. (Cruise takes 40 minutes one-way, a circular non-stop takes 90 minutes)
- A visit to the fascinating Lakes Aquarium to discover incredible creatures from otters and diving ducks to pirahna and pike. There's events on every day including 'meet the creature' sessions. Find out more on their website.

Highlights include a Campbell Bluebird exhibition, Vincent motorcycle display and an Isle of Man TT display.
