Unforgettable experience! - One of the best things we’ve done in London! The speed, the music, the guide’s sense of humour – everything was absolutely top-notch. We got a real adrenaline rush and had so much fun. As we learned from experience, it’s actually better to choose seats a bit further back – you get a better view and just as much thrill. Highly recommended to anyone who wants to see the Thames from a totally new perspective. No “buts” – just wow!

Thrilling Thames Ride with Excellent Commentary! - Excellent experience on the Thames. The boat goes a lot faster than I expected, which was a lot of fun and felt exhilarating. The commentary was also very good, with lots of interesting trivia and facts that we didn't previously know.

Top - The 70 minute tour done with 3 young teenagers. A lot of fun! Music completes the experience. Take into account the weather, we were lucky that was dry, but was cold.
