The BEST!

Absolutely THE BEST! My second time going with different family members. It did not disappoint. The tour guides are great in the first part of the ride pointing out all the iconic sights and more. A great way to see London from the Thames and then when they “open it up” it is absolutely thrilling and just plain fun. Perfect for all ages.

Exhilarating ride

Exhilarating ride past some familiar landmarks, but also many new ones. The lady at reception on the pier was so friendly and helpful with advice and settling nerves. It was hard to hear the live commentary once we were underway, but it didn't really matter as we were flying down the river, with sudden jinks left and right, feeling the raw power of the engine and the wind in our hair. It was a completely new experience and made a great birthday present.

Fantastic experience!

What a fantastic experience! Our skipper was Leo and he gave us an adrenaline filled ride up to the Thames Barrier and back. Kai was our guide and his commentary was interesting, engaging and clear. What a fab way to see London and would definitely recommend! My mother uses a mobility scooter and was able to come on board too. Westminster pier is step free till the Thames Rib experience kiosk. We were able to fold the scooter up and leave it in the kiosk for my mother to get on board the boat and she had a fab time.
