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.

5.00We 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!
An original experience in London

5.00Absolutely 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.
It's going to be really exciting!

5.00Great 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!

5.00Fantastic - the absolute highlight of our few days in London! We got upgraded from the twenty minute ride to the 45 minute one as there weren't enough people on our booked trip for it to go ahead, so we were pretty fortunate. Helpful and friendly staff, particularly our guide who gave us interesting sightseeing information during the first (slower) part of the boat ride including where certain action film stunts were filmed along the river. Then came the exhilaration of the high speed rush, complete with swerves back and forth across the water and round bends in the river! A nice touch to have music playing too... The high speed part was just the right duration - long enough to feel it was enough, not so long that it got too much..Totally recommend!
Awesome experience!!

5.00This trip does not disappoint! The view of London from the Thames is amazing, the tour guide was interesting and you can’t help but smile as you zoom down the Thames while they blast the James Bond theme music!
