Overview

Unleash your inner adrenaline junkie on a 45-minute high-speed cruise on the Thames River in London. Board your modern RIB (rigid-inflatable boat) with an expert skipper and guide, and feel the thrill as you speed through the British capital at speeds of up to 35 miles (56 km) per hour. Zoom past top London attractions including Tower Bridge, The O2 arena and Canary Wharf, and learn about the city's history from your guide’s entertaining commentary. Small-group experience with numbers limited to 12 people.

Itinerary

  • Shakespeare's Globe Theatre (Pass By)

    The only building in London today since the Great Fire of 1666 that is allowed by law a thatch roof in its construction.

  • Thames River (Pass By)

    Your on board comedian guide will make sure you are fully prepped and ready for this #1 experience. Feel the engines roar as you glide away from St Katharine Pier and straight into the high-speed zone.

  • Tower Bridge (Pass By)

    There's plenty of photo opportunities as you see Tower Bridge from a whole new perspective. Whether it's a birthday, celebration or just a great day out you are guaranteed to make memories.

  • Canary Wharf (Pass By)

    Suddenly the 630hp engines kick in to full throttle. Hold on tight as we propel you at 30 knots (that's 35mph!) down the most famous waterway in the world!

  • Cutty Sark (Pass By)

    Get ready to twist and turn, whooping and cheering as we head east. Catch the sights along the way from Tower Bridge to Canary Wharf, Greenwich and beyond.

  • Greenwich (Pass By)

    A quick stop at Greenwich to catch your breath. Enjoy hearing about this historic site with the beautiful backdrop of the Old Royal Naval College. A quick opportunity to adjust the hair... before it's time to take off again.

  • The Georgian Squares of London (Pass By)

    Bounce across the wake in this adrenaline fuelled adventure. A bespoke soundtrack will have you singing all the way with tunes from the modern day back to the 1950's - there really is something for everyone.

  • The Thames Barrier Information Centre (Pass By)

    Take in the sight of the incredible Thames Flood Barrier. Pause for breath as your guide explains the details behind this feat of modern engineering. Don't get too comfy though - because it's time to turn around and fly all the way back non-stop!

A treat for all the family ..... prior to going to the Theatre

Published on Jan, 2025

From the initial booking, where i left a message on an answer phone as i was using Tescos vouchers and they rang me back before they said they would, to Emily who greeted us on the pier, to the entertainment provided by Rory and Ian on the rib, this was truly a fantastic and very professionally run experience. The Tesco vouchers meant that we actually only paid £20 for 4 tickets!!

Lovely

Excellent safe fun

Published on Dec, 2024

This was an experience for my sons. They really enjoyed the time on the water. The crew were positive and welcoming and made sure everyone was safe. Within the limits of waterway rules, the boat gets up to sufficient speed to enjoy the sites

River cruise with a thrill

Published on Nov, 2024

Wow, just wow. What a totally fun experience. I booked this as a surprise for my husbands 50th birthday, he is mad about boats. We went with our two kids, 16 and 13 and all 4 of us had the best time. Didn't want it to end. AJ and Joey were fantastic crew and made the ride super interesting with a tour up the river giving us interesting facts and history about the sights along the way. They played music all the way, which added to the fun too. But the best bit was the high speed ride just like being in a James Bond movie. Amazing. Joey arranged to stop the boat underneath Tower Bridge where everyone sang happy birthday to my husband. Thank you Joey and AJ for making it such a memorable surprise. You guys were brilliant.

Amazing
