We had a lovely cruise up the Thames. The crew was fabulous and the views were spectacular, I would definitely recommend a river cruise, to see London in a relaxing less hectic way.
- Brian Conlan
A great three hour cruise on the Thames, very relaxing way to see the sights. Great facilities on board including a bar. We caught the last cruise of the day so had a daytime and nighttime view so double the value. Interesting commentary on board.
- Annette Carruthers
Wonderful boat tour! Went on this boat with 30 pupils and 4 teachers. Tour guide had a great sense of humour.
- Anneke Adema
Evening Jazz Cruise. What a brilliant evening out. Includes a three course dinner and a welcoming glass of fizz. Comfortable and very clean boat, excellent food. Very efficient, friendly staff, and the jazz quartet were excellent. All the night-time sights from Westminster to Greenwich. Heartily recommended.
- Stuart Finch
The tour of London City is incomplete without having experienced the city from the Cruise. The cruise passes through all the iconic places and Landmarks for which London is actually known for. It is an half hour tour but really a memorable one. The guide explains the importance of each and every thing through historical perspective.
