An Enjoyable Evening

4.00A beautiful night on the River Thames. We paid for the upgrade, which put us close (1 table away) from the front of the boat, but it seemed everyone had a good view since the boat was not full. Very good service (a little slow in clearing empties) and exceptionally friendly. The food was fine for a vessel without a kitchen (had to stop part way through the cruise at their port to grab the main course), but too much in volume. Two of the courses were unnecessary. The entertainment (a solo singer) was average, but very loud. Main takeaways…we are glad we booked the experience, but feel the value for the price was lacking. We would recommend a different night cruise that was less expensive, if there is one, because the night time views are beautiful.

5.00We did the VIP Upgrade and it was well worth the cost. The canapés were good, sitting at the front of the ship was the best way to see the sights and take pictures. The only downside is rude people will run over you to take pictures too. The owners of the ship need to stop the rude folks from overrunning the guest who paid more for their seats. Other than dealing with rude people, the cruise is wonderful. We started with a salmon salad, then tomato basil soup, next carrot, snow pea, beans with baked chicken and rosemary whipped potatoes that were bake on a muffin tin so they would be crispy. The chicken was flavorful and moist. Followed by a tiramisu spin off type of cheesecake. Afterwards they served a plate of cheese, bread and sliced pears/apples with wine. The views at night are amazing and I wouldn’t trade the experience for the world. Highly recommended this tour, you won’t be disappointed.
Staff did an amazing job....

5.00Staff did an amazing job. Food was delicious. Zoey’s choice of music was very appropriate and entertaining. We were glad we took this river cruise.
A Big Disappointment!

2.00The staff was attentive and professional, but the food left a lot to be desired. I personally did not get to enjoy a meal I was very much looking forward to. Being a vegetarian I was served an entree of chicken. I was never given the option of selecting a vegetarian meal thru the booking process. So, a cup of tomato soup cost me about $150.00. Very disappointed!
The experience in itself...

4.00The experience in itself is lovely, city lights and views awesome. However, menu is quite ordinary and should be upgraded, and there should be a choice given ex 1meat, 1 pasta and a vegetarian option.
