Explore Windermere with our bus and boat ticket

One ticket, more freedom to explore

Our Bus and Boat ticket is a simple, great‑value way to enjoy Lake Windermere and the surrounding area while keeping travel costs down. Perfect for families and those planning a car‑free day out, it combines two scenic ways to travel in one easy ticket, helping you see more for less.

Priced at £49 for a family of five (two adults and children), the ticket includes a one‑way boat journey on Lake Windermere and unlimited bus travel for the day. That works out at just £9.80 per person, making it one of the best‑value ways to get around the area.

Start by enjoying the views from the water, then continue your adventure by bus to nearby towns, attractions and walking routes, without needing to worry about individual fares or extra travel costs. Travelling as a family or group can quickly add up, which is why this ticket offers such excellent value, keeping plans flexible and everyone together throughout the day.

It’s also ideal if you’re staying locally or want to leave the car behind. Avoid parking fees and busy roads while taking in some of the best views Windermere has to offer, both on the lake and along scenic bus routes. With a memorable boat journey and the freedom to explore at your own pace, the Bus and Boat ticket offers a relaxed, affordable and enjoyable way to experience more of the Lake District.
