5.00Had a few hours to kill while in London. Having been on a "bay to remember" rhib ride in Cardigan and loved it, what better than to take a tour on the Rebel rocket. Wow that was impressive thank you Ed (I hope) and Tom also the chap on the berth. Impressively fast and views as well. Thank you millions, we'll done
An absolute blast

5.00One of the most exciting and fun things you can do in London. The Thames Rockets Rocket Rebel tour is an absolute thrill from start to finish. The sheer power and acceleration of the boat make it feel like a rollercoaster on water, slicing through the Thames with exhilarating speed. What really elevates the experience is the perfectly chosen music - high-energy tracks that sync brilliantly with every twist, turn, and burst of acceleration. The combination of speed, scenery, and soundtrack makes this one of the most exciting and memorable ways to see the city. I've done it a few times now and it's always a blast. Shout out to Rocky who I've had the pleasure of travelling with several times, and Matt who is a wizard at the wheel.
Superb

5.00Absolutely loved the Rocket Rebel boat. This was a Christmas gift for us and what a gift it was. I'm not normally a boat-lover but this was amazing. The crew made it interesting and fun, the music played as we speed along added to the experience. This is great way to see London and we'd recommend it.
Amazing

5.00We had so much fun on the Thames Rocket. Thanks to Bill (not Bob) for his excellent tour skills about the landmarks. The anticipation of waiting for the speed once you get to Tower Bridge I was super nervous. But the speed added to the fun and the music being played along the way made it even better! Thanks to Tom for the speed!
A real adrenaline rush
