Description
Join us for a tour on a replica launch boat and learn about the history of the C&O Canal.
During the late 19th and early 20th century, 30-foot long launch boats traveled the canal for leisure and business, contrasting greatly with the 90 foot mule-drawn cargo boats that usually dominated the canal.
Tours are limited to 10 people.
Animals are not allowed, with the exception of service animals.
Inclement weather, including high winds and extreme heat, may cause tours to be cancelled.
