London from a different perspective. - It was a lovely day and the river was just rough enough to give us some excitement although more turns would have been fun. The narrative was actually very educational and the music just added to the experience. A great trip for seeing the London skyline from another angle.

Best experience ever - What a thrill! This was one of our teenagers’ highlights of our trip. The speedboat gave us the view of London from the River along with the adventure of speeding down the River like we were in a James Bond movie. Highly recommend!!

The best way to start the day - A hugh thank you to Akira, Leo and Mia. We had the best time. Went on the tour with my 14 yo daughter and 11 yo son. My son said it best: “My cheeks hurts so much because I can’t stop smiling” 😊

Waited a long time to do this! - Great experience, loved every minute, not easy to hear commentary though. The high speed part was a blast, a bit scary at first then got into it!

Over too soon ! - We booked the day before, emails received with clear details. Nice waiting room, brand new life jackets and lovely hostess. Boat driver Richard and compair Matt were brilliant. We had a treat of Tower Bridge being fully open when we went underneath and they gave us the opportunity to take a snap shot. The speedy ride was exciting and made us shriek and laugh. We always felt safe and didn't even get that wet !! Great 45 mins to finish our two day trip to London.

A great experience - It was a sunny day so the views were wonderful. When we went fast, it was brilliant, and the music gave it the extra effect. The commentary was good and informative.

Please sort out a proper sound recording! - Overall the experience was good fun and safety was paramount. The young guy on our boat, who was super friendly, was hard to understand whilst talking about the various sights. My friend and I are both Londoner’s born and raised and found it difficult to understand what was being said, so I imagine visitors with limited English would really struggle to understand, coupled with the noise of the craft and the wind. I don’t understand why there is not a clear recorded voice onboard, talking about the sights. That would be so much better for everyone. Also, if the above was in place, you could talk about so many more sights and also put the speaker back on, for the return visit, after passing through Tower Bridge. For example, no mention was made of the Tower of London - a pretty historic landmark!
