It was amazing!

I bought this experience for my boyfriend’s birthday and we both thought it was amazing! We couldn’t find how to get there but we rang up and the person on the phone gave us clear instructions. The staff are knowledgeable, friendly and make it an enjoyable experience. The best part of the experience is the speed boat section in the middle, speeding along the Thames. We would definitely recommend this experience!

So much fun, we did it again!

This is such a fun ride. I would recommend it to anyone visiting London. We began with the shorter ride, from Embankment Pier. We had such a good time, we went back the next day for the longer tour, from the Tower Bridge to the Thames Barrier. Both trips are slower but still fun until you reach the Tower Bridge. Once you pass the bridge, the exciting part kicks in, as the boat goes to full speed and powers up and down the Thames. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip to London, and it's a must-do for anyone visiting the city.

A lovely mix of calm, to thrilling!

I would have given 5 out of 5 had the experience been the 50 minutes as advertised and bought. It was great, but too short!!

Not worth the cost as there was zero tour guide. No Bond music either. Thames rocket Much better.

Not half as good as its competitor further to the Thames. Guide was awful, zero interest, mumbled and rattled off a few facts about a few buildings, mainly how many millions this cost or how many thousands that’s cost, no real interaction or historical facts, no dates. The part where the rib is allowed accelerate was thrilling, rather too much as my hat was whipped off and went in the river, not that anyone noticed.
