5.00This trip delivers, exactly as advertised. You don't get wet (unless its raining, and even then they supply disposable ponchos), and it is indeed a thrilling ride. Nuff said.

5.00We took our Granddaughter as part of her 8th Birthday present. She absolutely loved it the speed, music, seeing the London Landmarks. The crew were very professional, making sure we had the correct life vests on and properly fitted. then making sure we were safely seated on board, and assisted us getting on and off the boat. Our Granddaughter has already asked if we would take her again. Would highly recommend if you like thrilling rides.
Not our best run

2.00The first part of the ride was lovely - lasted about 20 minutes at normal speed. We got incredible views of the buildings that line the Thames. The next 25 were horrible - it was SO cold and SO fast. Please remember that this is only my opinion (shared by my teen)… the staff were very caring and let us off early at a different pier. The other guests seemed fine.
