More information on Maid of the Loch

This Maid was launched in the year 1953, which was also the Coronation Year on Britain's largest lake, the beautiful Loch Lomond. It is also the last paddler streamer and inland water passenger boat. Locked in a series of mishaps, history tells us that service on the Maid of the Loch was discontinued in 1981 and then restarted after extensive renovations in 1992! Presently a refurbished and neatly designed streamer awaits passengers on board, for private parties, business events and even weddings! Guided tours are organized and you can savor delicacies at the in-house restaurant too. You have to book in advance as the Maid may have her hands full! Please check for timings as they are seasonal.
