Great Experience :)

The experience was amazing, however what let it down is first, we were not aware on time that we needed to board the boat and therefore this needs to improve so that people don't miss boarding time. The commentary from the tour guide needs to be louder as we could barely hear it. Also, there was no activities for the children to do on board so the children found it boring even though they were mesmerise by the experience. Other than that, it was a great experience and the children enjoyed the experience but they said that they wish that they could have been able to hear the commentary to learn more. We would definitely go again and hopefully we would be able to hear the commentary. Thank you for the experience :)

Fun time

The guide was excellent and so were the views, especially of the Tower Bridge. I was a little disappointed that we didn’t get a good view of the Houses of Parliament

An enjoyable experience.

A very clean vessel and the staff were polite and helpful. Very pleased with the commentary as we sailed along the river too.

Comfortable way to travel

Comfortable way to travel the Thames. Since the WiFi was out, we had an impromptu narrator who included family-friendly jokes along the way.

Disappointing

Rude gentleman at the booth- my phone stopped accepting internet just an hour before- I was able to show him the confirmation from you but couldn’t access the tickets so he wouldn’t let us go. This was at 4pm on Friday June 5th. The only time we had available to do the cruise so we weren’t able to do it. I had great experience on all your other tours. My grandson was upset that we couldn’t do this one, as was I. Please refund this money, thank you! Patti.

Great way to tour and get from Westminster to Tower of London!

We enjoyed hopping on this tour to see the sights from a different vantage point. We stayed in the Westminster area and needed to get to Tower of London. This was a perfect way to get a tour in with transportation that took us steps to Tower of London! Purchasing tickets online will save you a little money (can’t remember how much) and guarantee your spot. We booked the morning of the tour in late May and did not have a problem.

A true highlight despite different expectations.

We booked the ride and initially thought that we could board at each of the four points and also choose the disembarkation point flexibly, wanting to do a kind of "round trip." We only realized that this would not work when we were on site. Fortunately, we boarded at the Tower Bridge and traveled to the London Eye, which gave us the best views of all the sights. Thus, the approximately 40-minute boat tour was worth its cost for us despite the misunderstanding. The tour guide was also fantastic and provided great information about individual points along the route.
