I suppose it depends on who the guests are ? I would take them to somewhere they would enjoy,not just my fave places.I think with all my friends being urbanites a slow cruise down a qiuet deserted river might be too much of a culture shock.So my trip would start from the hustle and bustle of wroxham,where the covoys of day boats and Broadstours never fails to amuse and the riverside properties never fails to impress,ditto Horning and onto Ranworth for food and drinks.Ranworth always ticks all the boxes.Then on to a secluded mooring for a bbq and a quiet night,that way they get the best of both worlds.If the guest was a fisherman i would also factor that into the equation.Obviosly,bbq would depend on time of year and weather. steve.
Been there and done it...When I first met Kathy (whose only water-bourne experience had been a day trip to Calais) I first tried her out with a car trip to Womack staithe where she was fascinated by a pair of grebe doing their mating dance. Building on that we had a day boat from Herbert Woods to the Maltsters for a meal - she was like a kid in a sweetie shop with the wildlife and loved the chat and banter with everyone we met. Then a long weekend on a bathtub with another couple - still all good. next step a long weekend with just the two of us - still all good - now three years on we've bought our own boat and I can't keep her off it - I think I may have created a Broads fanatic. (She's also met a rum owd boy who runs a chandlers in Loddon and helped me fit the mast Bill- which is still standing with no leaks - Thanks for that mate)
