Amazing trip!
We thoroughly enjoyed our trip up the river with Thames Rib Experience. George and Kai were fab. Our original trip did not reach the required numbers but we were contacted the day before and offered another time and free upgrade from our 45 minute trip to the 70 minute trip. It was excellent and I would defo book this again.
