    Tour of the city at a glance from the river side. Very relaxed and hassle free way of seeing all the major land marks.

  • Very fun and informative, even in the rain

    This is a great way to see London from the water, rain or shine. It's a great way to learn about London and start to grasp the layout of the city before exploring on your own. We had a great time.

  • Good trip, would do again.

    Very good experience. The captain provided a running commentary on the sites, and checked with the passengers several times on the clarity and usefulness of the commentary. I only wish the stops were more clearly announced (as in, "it is now safe to disembark"), as I wanted to get off a stop early. But that didn't take away from the experience.

  • Great Tour

    We took this tour in the fall, so it was a bit windy on the upper deck but we were blessed with a clear day for sightseeing. We took in some sights and the National Gallery them took the boat back up the river. I recommend the round trip to catch what you missed on the way. We sat below indoors on the way back and the views were just as good. There is so much to see!

  • Great low level views and commentary.

    A nice and slightly different way to view London along the Thames and learn a little bit of history along the way. The boat is spacious and comfortable, unfortunately we didn't get to view from the outside as the weather changed to heavy rain. Non the less the commentary was really good, some history I was unaware of and great views. The only thing to note was that our trip to Greenwich was 1 way which is was not aware of so we had to hop on a bus from the visitor's centre to the tube station to travel back to Westminster embankment home - it's a 35 - 40 minutes walk from the boat dock to the station, you wouldn't do it in the rain.

    Enjoyable and relaxing way to view the sights along the Thames. Our skipper was fantastic with his pointing out points of interest. Quite a contrast from hustle and bustle on land
