Blast along the River Thames on this 20 minute TOWER RIB BLAST round-trip speedboat cruise from Tower Millennium Pier.
Once suited up, sit back and take in the view as you head along the river past the Tower of London and under Tower Bridge. Then its throttle time!
Feel the FULL throttle of the RIB's (rigid inflatable boat) 740hp twin turbo engines as you roar along the River Thames towards Canary Wharf & back to Tower in the same fashion... It's a 20 minute BLAST! Thrill in the high speeds and intense wave crashing action at full power all the way back to the Tower Pier.

Fast and fun! Great outing for a hot day! Fun for all ages! Kids enjoyed it, as well. The 45 min ride was perfect. I think the 20 min ride would be too short.

We had a brilliant trip with Ed and Kai on the Thames, knowledgeable and insightful commentary mixed with great views, speed and that feeling of being in a 007 movie. Would highly recommend!

Absolutely brilliant, Kane and George were our crew and my 13 year old granddaughter and I loved it. The James Bond theme playing whilst we were enjoying the ride was fab.

Great experience aboard this large, ultra-fast zodiac. Plenty of sensations on a beautiful course along the banks of the Thames. The highlight was the James Bond music; it really felt like we were in it!
