About this activity

At Thames Tigers, we love what we do. We travel at High-Speed for over 10 miles on our scheduled trips with an unrestricted forward view of our great city. We offset all our carbon emissions at our own cost. We offer a full refund, if trips are cancelled with 24 hours notice. You'll be welcomed at Tower Bridge Quay and given protective clothing, a lifejacket and a full safety briefing. You'll take your place onboard, in an Ullman suspension seat. We'll head off down river at 35mph(56kph), blasting through historic Wapping, past Canary Wharf and the Cutty Sark at Greenwich. We'll do a high speed turn at the O2 Arena and head back to Tower, all accompanied by great music. Then we'll slow down for a cruise up to Blackfriars and back with a tour guide. You'll spend 45 minutes on the river; a 45 minutes you'll never forget! Our skipper and guide are highly experienced and very friendly and welcoming. We're licensed to serve alcohol.

Must do while in London

I went on this boat ride with two other friends and it was so much fun! Debbie and Dave are super engaging and really do everything they can to make sure it is a great experience. I highly recommend this experience, seeing London from the river is a must, and the high speed ride makes it super unique. Don't miss out on this!

Hands down the best trip i have ever done! The only way to experience London!

Me and my two best friends celebrated finishing our studies by taking a blast down the river with Thames Tigers, and it was the perfect end to a hard year of work! We couldn't have asked for a more enjoyable or friendly experience. The views were spectacular and we couldn't stop smiling, there is not better way to see London especially in a short space of time. Debbie and Dave are the kindest and most friendly people in London and made the whole experience easy and care free, it was like our own personal tour of London with the added enjoyment of high speed fun! I honestly couldn't recommend this experience more. Thank you Thames Tigers for a great day!

Easily the best activity in central London!

What can I say - an amazing experience from start to finish! Thank you so much to Debbie & Dave for providing the best experience I've had in the capital. Both were incredibly knowledgeable about London & its landmarks also friendly & approachable throughout. The high-speed ride was absolutely thrilling - perfect if you need a dose of adrenaline! You can't beat their location either - literally at the foot of Tower Bridge, ideal for a few selfies! If you're looking for an activity in central London that's a little bit different then look no further! I would definitely book with Thames Tigers again.

Voted the best event on our trip to London with two teenagers!

Took the teenagers to London and our high speed boat trip on the Tiber Thames was voted by far the best part of our trip. We all came away smiling and happy. Dave and Debbie were so personable, friendly and knowledgeable. The music playing was a great touch and Debbie gave us a really interesting guided trip of the landmarks along the way. There were 12 of us on the speedboat but every one of us was made to feel as if we were the only ones on the boat. Would highly recommend and when we go to London again this will definitely be something we do again with Thames Tigers.

Debbie & Dave were FANTASTIC!! Sharing history with humor, local hot spots + helped take family photos too. Up close, personal and best view of Tower Bridge. Got the blood pumping on a cold day in January. Highlight of London!!
