Great relaxing trip from Westminster to Greenwich and back - Really good trip, pointed out key landmarks and snippets of history. With people getting on and off it was easy to get a good view from the top deck. Gets cold in the evening but a fantastic way to see essential historic London without the walk.

Well worth it - Me and my brothers took our Mum to London as an early Mother’s Day, so it would be less busy. We didn’t know really what to do, but we had a look online and this was suggested. We found that the price was really worth it, there was a commentary (with included wit) informing people about the landmarks and buildings we were passing. We did stop at Greenwich for a small look around, but had to be quick as the last two boats were cancelled. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and the commentary is funny and informative. There’s a full bar on board with Draught beers. They do cocktails, wines, hot dogs, snacks. You can sit inside the boat or outside on top, so it gives you options for personal preference. Inside is really comfortable Thank you

Great commentary - It was a great time rolling down the river. The tour operator told interesting stories along the way. We even got a chance to ride under Tower Bridge but most Americans think it’s called London Bridge. What a great time on the boat.

Trip on the Thames - Highly recommended. Many sights to be seen from the river that you otherwise wouldn't know were there . The guided narration was very informative.
