Review

This cruise line would not work with us. We were new to London trying to understand the bus/train system. We got there late so we were not able to go and they couldn’t even as far as work with us to go on another day without having us pay again for the excursion. Disappointed

Fantastic trip

Could not have asked for a better day weather wise. The trip was the same. Simple boarding and the food was lovely. Great craic with the "guide" telling us all the buildings on our trip. Great few hours on the Thames.

Recommended for anyone visiting London

Great trip. The weather helped but we took our Australian cousins & they enjoyed it. Friendly service & although the chap giving a commentary got a couple of things wrong 😜 he did point out he was just a member of the crew.

Lovely way to see London without the traffic!

Easy to get to, next to the Tower of London. The seats are pre-assigned. Some folks were greeted with drinks so look for a VIP package if you'd like that. All tables had great views. The lunch was delicious and we saw all the sites advertised. The only downside was my wife's expensive sunglasses "disappeared" during the meal so bear in mind you're in a "public" area.

Disappointed

I booked this tour in advance and when I showed up they sat me at an empty table while everyone else’s table was set. When I asked about my seating they said it hit their system last minute which I paid days in advance. Then they told me I had to wait until everyone showed up to see if I get bread service because they were out. Also, the tour was boring. No one talked about the scenery while we were eating. There was no music. It was just quiet unless you were talking to others. Lastly, the food was average.
