This was a great experience. We have seen all the tourist sites during other visits to London and to see all the amazing site again from a different perspective was wonderful. The meal supplied was very enjoyable and filling.
Really nice!

Absolutely loved this sight seeing cruise! Someone hadn’t turned up so we were given a table at the front which was just fabulous as you see so much. Brilliant commentary which could have been just a touch louder for my old ears! We learned so much! And lunch was delicious! The staff were all great and everything was clean and top quality! I would absolutely recommend this to anyone and would go again myself!

Very nice boat, good commentary and great views of the wharves, on a calm and sunny day gliding past the Tower of London, Tower Bridge, Parliament, London Eye, Guildhall, Cleopatras Needle, Southbank, Greenwich, Cutty Sark etc It was not that busy so we could pick our table after it started. Everyone wants the window seats, but sometimes the sun is too much (even with tinted glass) and it becomes quite uncomfortable there, we always take an inside table and so on this occasion it proved to be a better option. The views are pretty much the same from anywhere and tourists mill about on the different decks if there's something of particular interest. Our only gripe was that for the 2-course meal there was no choice at all. What we got, chicken and a cheesecake were fine, but to have zero choice about it seems a bit off. On previous cruises, in Prague, Paris, Seville etc we've had a similar experience, but with much more choice of meal. Not everyone likes chicken or cheesecake. If you didn't I guess that would be most upsetting.
Fun tour

An overall good experience. The only reason it’s not 5 stars is because we didn’t get a lot of time at the top of the boat. Highly recommend though.
Great experience
