5.00I did this with my two teens, one way trip and we all loved it! Saw loads of sites and enjoyed the commentary too. Getting off at Tower Bridge gave us a chance to explore other areas of London on our short trip. Highly recommend!
Bravo 🙏

1.00I’m extremely disappointed with my recent afternoon tea cruise experience. The atmosphere was far from enjoyable — the boat moved very slowly, which could have been fine if the experience itself made up for it. Unfortunately, the crew were aggressive and unwelcoming. We were repeatedly told to sit down, discouraged from taking photos, and moved around in a way that felt uncomfortable and unnecessary. This completely took away from what should have been a relaxing and memorable experience. Instead, it felt restrictive and poorly managed. I would appreciate an explanation for this behavior and would expect appropriate compensation for the experience provided. I hope you take this feedback seriously and improve the way guests are treated onboard.
