London: River Thames Small-Group Speedboat Sightseeing Tour

5.0 (4302) 🕑 50 minutes Free cancellation

Choose from a range of start times when booking; on the day, head to the London Eye Pier in Central London. Greet your skipper, don a lifejacket, and listen to a short safety briefing before stepping on board your modern speedboat. Feel your excitement heighten as the boat’s engine roars to life and propels you toward iconic London landmarks such as Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, and St. Paul’s Cathedral. During slower periods of sailing, learn more about London's history and glide under the monumental Tower Bridge. Then, your skipper accelerates and performs tight turns, wave jumps, and more. Finally, enjoy a leisurely cruise back to the boat’s original departure point.
