Brilliant experience - HIGHLY RECOMMEND

What a wonderful experience. The guide talked us through the sights, giving us factual information (just the right amount). The speed part was great fun and the kids loved it. We booked it for our daughter’s 12th birthday. She loved it. The music added to the experience. Great company. Highly recommend this *****

Spectacular boat trip on the Thames

Very nice boat trip. In our case, there was some uncertainty about the meeting place but in the end that worked out completely with the help of the organization.

Need for speed

Excellent trip combining all the London landmarks but also meeting an older child’s need for speed.

Absolutely amazing experience!

What an absolutely amazing experience from start to finish! If you're looking for something exciting to do in London, this is it. The crew were fantastic, friendly, professional, and made everyone feel completely safe while keeping the atmosphere fun and entertaining. The commentary was brilliant, full of interesting facts with plenty of humour along the way. The best part was when the boat opened up on the faster section of the Thames. The speed, sharp turns, and music made it feel like a rollercoaster on water! It was an adrenaline rush unlike anything I've experienced, while still being able to take in London's iconic landmarks from a completely different perspective. The whole experience was incredibly well organised, and every member of staff clearly loves what they do. It's the perfect mix of sightseeing, thrills, and laughs. This is my 3rd time doing and I'll definitely be booking again!
