    Thames
    Qype User (London…)

    This is a great alternative way to get to commute round London. If you already have a travelcard £2.60 will get you from Canary Wharf to Embankment complete with a scenic route and a tourguide! Highly recommended when there's a tube strike but also for a nice day out.

    Busy... Even on a Sunday.

    Out of all the things I paid to do in London, I can say that the Thames River Cruise was the most interesting and best value!

    I am sure this is an amazing experience. Unfortunately we will never know. I had booked the Fondue…read moreexperience as an early Valentine's dinner for my wife and myself since we were going to be traveling for work over Valentine's weekend. The morning of our booking I had a medical emergency (which we were able to verify to Skuna) so we called about six hours before our tour to ask if we could reschedule for another day. We understood this was incredibly short notice, so we didn't expect a refund or even a full credit. We asked if since the food would obviously not be prepared could we at least have a credit for the food portion if not the tour time. The answer was a fairly insensitive no, and were told the manager said they can't do anything with a same day cancel. Of course, we understood the uniqueness of the situation and had it not been due to a legitimate medical issue we never would have asked. However, the staff we spoke to didn't even show concern for the situation. We had to cancel drinks and bites at Bokan as well for after our tour and the staff there said no problem, they showed concern, and wished us well. Understanding that policies are in place we sent an email the next day. Eight days later we have only received an automated reply stating that our email was received. This is an experience we've wanted to have since moving to London three years ago, but sadly we just aren't interested in giving more money to a company that has this little care for their customers.

This was it! Josh was amazing. Water was warm, boat was clean and easy to 'drive'. Definitely worth the money, and no one else I know has been on a hot tub boat! So if you want something away from the crowds, in a great area for lunch or dinner too, give this a try. Easy to get to from anywhere.

    Today my girlfriend and I were whisked from Westminster to Canary Wharf in minutes aboard a…read morespeedboat, and then cruised back with a guided tour of all the major sites. It was a lot of fun! Whilst I've travelled the length of the Thames before, it's always been at a snail's pace, and usually stuck in a crowded tube train. This was a breath (a blast, in fact) of fresh air. From Canary Wharf, the tour took a more leisurely course back westerly along the river and a guide talked us through some history. He was an experienced chap with a lot of interesting stories and anecdotes. Did you know that a single shell from a gun on the HMS Belfast, moored at London Bridge, could target and destroy Crystal Palace? Or that an earlier London Bridge was purchased by a rich Californian for £1M, and carefully shipped over to the USA and assembled - only then did the american realise it wasn't the iconic Tower Bridge he thought it was. The sensitive might find the talk of murderers' heads on poles and Guy Fawkes hanging drawing and quartering a bit much, but kids would love that, I'm sure! Despite the occasionally grisly commentary, I'd highly recommend the speedboat tour.

If you want to stich someone up, make sure they sit on the left hand side of the boat - they will get the brunt of the speed when whizzing past Canary Wharf.

We easily booked on line a couple months in advance of our trip to Stonehenge, Bath and a Secret Place. I had a few questions, which were answered quickly through email. Instructions and itinerary were provided after we bought we tickets. Additional and helpful information was sent a few day prior to our trip. Noelh, our tour guide, was knowledgable, interesting and fun from the moment he picked us up in London. He provided information beyond the tour stops. He was engaging and had a good understanding of the geology of Stonehenge as well as the historical background. He made well time stops for breaks. We spent about two hours at Stonehenge, two hours at Bath and an hour at the Secret Place. The Secret Place was worth the extra and I highly recommend. Noelh offered a brief and interesting walking tour at each site and left us time to explore on our own. We were allowed to bring snacks on the bus but we didn't need them because we stopped plenty at places for food and drink. Noelh provided water. Bring water and rain gear. There were UBC ports for phone charging on the bus. The bus was very comfortable. Noelh was sensitive to a woman that was having mobility issues and arranged for her to skip part of the walking tour. I enjoyed Stonehenge and the Secret Place immensely, I was glad I saw Bath, but it was too crowded during our visit. Others on the tour really loved Bath. I highly recommend The English Bus tours.
