Amazing and Thrilling

Published on Mar, 2025

Amazing experience, quite thrilling for me. This was my birthday threat, this will surely be one to remember! Will definitely try the other experience they also have, but this one was amazing, take you all up to the Thames barrier, and stopping at all the historical monument on the way there with all the informative explanation. Friendly staff, Loved it. Sorry can't remember the name of the Captain and Skipper this was on Saturday 22nd march, but they were amazing, I was all jelly like and and still taking in the experience when I left the boat, but amazing staff. This is a MUST in my opinion .

Thames Rib so much fun

Published on Mar, 2025

We had a blast on the Rib. Would highly recommend. Leo (our "driver") sped us along while George B entertained with fun facts, not just of the famous sites along the Thames, but other lesser known ones. And all mixed in with jokes and rocking tunes.

A must do!!!

Published on Mar, 2025

Had a fantastic time. When we got back to the dock, I did not want to get off.... I wanted to do it all over again! I would highly recommend to anyone who wants an adrenaline rush!

Great fun

Published on Mar, 2025

Great experience. Good bit of speed once you get beyond Tower Bridge. Good sound so you can actually hear the tour info - and the music. And so long as it is not raining you do NOT get wet! Certainly worth doing.

Fun & exhilarating

Published on Feb, 2025

I took my 19 year old son & we both loved it. Loved the facts & sights we were shown, but also great fun & exhilarating! Would definitely recommend!
