Lively ride. Like a wild fairground ride. Worth doing once. Unfortunately the company was unable to process a voucher and a concession at the same time.
We loved the trip and our guide ”Barbra”🤣🙈 Perfekt mix of culture, speed and fun for our tast! Could do this again and again!! On a day with temperatures hotter than hell, we couldn’t be happier! We had problems with the booking, when i called the service I got though right away and got friendly help very quickly. Thank you♥️
Best activity in London so far! We did the 40 minute speed boat tour with our 6 year and it’s definitely one for all ages, we all loved it and thanks to guide Leonie and driver Bill who went above and beyond to make the experience even more special. All the staff were great, couldn’t recommend enough!
Excellent experience Great driving by Charlene and great commentatory by Sofia!!! Highly recommended
Amazing experience with Thames Rockets! 🚀 We came from Berlin to London with our two children, and this was definitely one of the highlights of our trip! Jack was an amazing guide. He was super friendly, very funny and told us lots of interesting stories about London’s history, culture and famous places along the Thames. He really made the whole experience special. He even took some great photos of us, which was a really nice surprise. Bill was a great driver too. The ride was exciting, but we always felt safe. For our family, this was probably the best experience we had in London. The kids absolutely loved it and we did too! A big thank you to Jack and Bill for making our Saturday so memorable. We would definitely do it again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This was sooo much fun, I highly recommend this experience! Stacey our guide was hilarious, entertaining, and informative, and Ben our driver definitely made the ride exhilarating. The music was awesome too. Don’t miss out! And even better do it soon after you arrive to beat jet lag.
The information about London and the Thames was brilliant. The high speed part of the trip was exhilarating and exciting. Big thank you to our crew Joey and Max
