Debbie
I would highly recommend the cruise with afternoon tea, boat was clean and staff were very friendly. It was a fantastic and relaxing 90min seeing landmarks of london. Food was delicious.
Shanita_R
This was such a pleasant surprise. The boat was very nicely decorated and very comfortable. It literally felt like a restaurant The staff were friendly and the commentary was informative with a touch of humor. The food was so yummy and the views were breathtaking. I would definitely recommend the cruise to anyone considering!
RoseEllen_G
Food quality was very good. Everyone gets the same food unless you choose the vegan option. Very nice lunch. Drinks cost extra but reasonable on pricing. Great cruise down the river. Captain gave us a bit of tour information as well on what we were seeing on the banks of the river as we cruised by. Very nice experience. I would probably go at night for dinner instead. Apparently it is really great to see the city from the river at night.
Leticia_H
The dinner cruise was a great last minute addition to our trip. The skyline is beautiful and visible from your seat and top deck. The food is okay, and drinks are extra but very affordable. Entertainment was great, a pretty good singer. I would recommend to friends and family. The only thing missing is a brief narration of the skyline as I’m not familiar with it.
Kim_k
Very informative, clean and well maintained ship, and professional crew. Beautiful sunny day, gorgeous photos taken.
Flavia H.
A really great tour for three generations of the family. The boat was clean, comfortable with excellent viewing areas. The bar served a range of drinks. Staff were pleasant and friendly. The tour was informative and interesting. See a different view of the iconic buildings. Would work well even in poor weather.

We were a group of 5 adults and 2 kids (4 years and 9 years). This was a great trip. It was the perfect amount of time, and our guide was fantastic (I regret not getting his name!) - the perfect balance of wittiness, interesting information/gossip, and history. I think this would be fun for any group, any age. We got to see a lot of the main sights of London and to hear different, interesting tidbits about other sites, and some history about all. There is a bar on the boat as well, with food and drinks for both adults and kids. Just fantastic all around!
NicolaDulson
Great way to see so many sights, super price with commentary and friendly crew. Spotlessly clean -really enjoyable.
MonaSofie_T
Amazing staff who told us about the buildings and landmarks we could see from the river. Informative and funny!
Lozza
Fantastic river cruise trip. Saw all the sights along the river on a really comfortable, modern boat. Staff were all great and friendly. Boat was spotless and comfortable.
Jeff_M
Food was great. Staff very good and entertainment was awesome. Had a great time. Would come back. Thanks for a great time!
Miriam_H
Attending as a group of three, we had a fantastic experience. The white tablecloths gave everything a more upmarket feel. The food was delicious, and the drinks were very well priced. The live commentary was great to listen to, and we’ve never seen London look as beautiful as it does from the River Thames. We would definitely recommend this experience and would happily return.
Jessica_R
Amazing!! My family, husband and I went on the cruise for my 30th birthday, I would 100% recommend it and go again! The staff were all very friendly and attentive, the food was delicious (we had bread for starters, chicken, potatoes and veggies and a cheescake for dessert). It didn't look like a lot at first, but actually it's very filling - I felt full! and the mushroom sauce was delicious. Staff went out of their way to ensure all our needs were catered to, and they sang me happy birthday whilst the bought my cake over! We liked the commentary as well, I'm a Londoner and learnt so much about London on that day.
Rachael_L
The boat had to stop service due to extremely high tide the day we went. However, the company that ran the boat honored our tickets the next day because of it.
Nekosix
Great views of London landmarks at night. Lots of photo opportunities. The music was great, excellent singer. Food was great. Fantastic evening.
Nicole_S
It can get a little cold out on the top deck but it’s worth it to wear a warm sweater. The views and commentaries from the crew presenter were excellent. We enjoyed it very much.
Terry_K
Very enjoyable. Relaxing way to see the London landmarks . Guideline was funny and informative. Would recommend.
Jennifer_P
A lovely experience especially if it is sunny. A scenic and relaxed way to see the sights of London. Not a first class experience but food is decent enough and staff very friendly.
PRAFUL_M
It’s a beautiful and relaxing way to see London from a different perspective, with iconic landmarks unfolding one after another as you glide down the river. The commentary on board added a nice touch, giving us interesting snippets of history without feeling overwhelming. We chose to take the one-sided trip and return to Central London by Metro, which worked perfectly. It gave us the freedom to explore Greenwich at our own pace and then head back quickly and conveniently. Overall, it was a smooth, scenic, and enjoyable experience—an easy recommendation for anyone wanting to enjoy London from the water
Hilary_B
Good value for money Great live commentary from a Londoner They were happy for us to do a round trip and stay on. Giving chance to see london on both sides of the river
Deb_R
Champagne and beautiful scenery going under all the bridges ! Very friendly staff and great entertainment too!
Jorge
The afternoon tea was great. 90 mins was perfect for it. The workers were nice and professional. We saw all the major sites and going under Tower bridge was awesome. We ate and spent the last 30 mins on the upper deck enjoying the weather. Would highly recommend.
Sabine_R
Me and my son had a great time. The guided tour was very informative. Very pleased to see that they use an electric vessel. Very smooth and quiet. We were warm and comfy on the covered deck. Staff very friendly and helpful and the 40 min roundtrip just the right amount of time.
Shanisha
The tea was great and we were able to get multiple refills. The sandwiches were perfect and the trip was long enough for us to enjoy, relax, and see all of London's biggest attractions from the river's perspective. I recommend this for anyone coming here.
