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.

It is one of those London attractions that is bloody expensive (aren't they all?) but well worth every penny. Or pence, as it were. Definitely a highlight of our time in London. It helps that we lucked out with the weather - perfect temperature and barely a cloud in the sky. Our guide was Max who did such a great job of cracking jokes while being informative and making sure everyone had a good time. Absolutely brilliant at his job and deserves all of the accolades. Once out of the central London area, the boat guns the engines and takes off with a carefully curated playlist blasting on the speakers (rocketing down the Thames with the James Bond theme music playing and my son by my side is an instant life highlight). My son loved when the boat did sharp, high speed turns which lifted one side of the boat practically perpendicular to the water. Not for the faint of heart! The whole tour lasted about an hour and was loads of fun. I've done loads of boat tours around Europe and this was easily the most fun I've ever had. Highly recommended!

This is a rip off. We booked two tickets to go on this but the instructions sent us to the wrong…read morepier making us late. When we went to speak with them about this we were told that they'd let one of us sit on standby for an open seat but that if anyone else showed up and paid for a ticket that person would just get bumped from the ride. They were not interested in addressing the fact that they sent us to the wrong place or making this right in any way. Their entire stance was basically that customers are ripping *them* off by getting sent to the wrong pier, showing up late or trying to reschedule. They made it sound like they were just too booked to do anything about this. We wound up going to the HMS Belfast and on one of the cruises with a day pass that let us go up and down the river for the afternoon. Now imagine my surprise when during the hours we were on the river doing other things their boats kept coming by with one, maybe two passengers. They're essentially raking in tickets for 16 people per trip while honoring less than a quarter of those tickets and issuing absolutely no refunds. Go with another company. Go with another activity. Don't pay all of that money for absolutely nothing.

omg, 5/5, "ate and left no crumbs". Am I cool, yet? Maybe too soon to say…read more Literally, the mystery is still unsolved. No crumbs? Okay, I'll stop right there because we're talking about gruesome murders that took place in 1888 by the clever and unknown "Jack". I booked this tour through Viator and our assigned guide was Ivan. We began the tour with a backstory of the neglected town of Whitechapel and continued the tour following in "Jack's" footsteps. Out of all of the tours we had in London, this was the most educational and compelling. Parts of the tour include photos of the women that were brutally murdered and Ivan would warn us to look away if we weren't interested in seeing them. I would highly recommend this tour, and I'm not a true crime podcast girlie.

I didn't believe it for a second. No way could a duck support me on a tour of London. They are not…read moreknown for their strong backs. The notion that I would be getting shown around by, or transported by an actual duck were soon put to rest when I saw that we would be getting shown around in an odd looking little yellow bus thing. Imagine my surprise when after driving around for a short while the driver decided to drive straight into the Thames River. Luckily, the odd little yellow bus thing actually turns into a boat, of sorts. The reason this tour is so popular, I'd imagine, is because of exactly that; it's a road vehicle that can turn into a boat. That novelty alone would compel almost anyone to shell out £19. If you're a tourist; then why not. If you're going to do the bus tours, why not get on a weird yellow thing that also turns into a boat. But if you're a local - then think twice. Because it wasn't long into this tour that I realised I had just done what I promised myself I would never do; get an atypical tourist ride around London. The novelty of being on the water wears off in about nine seconds. Especially when you have a really annoying know-it-all tour guide. And as the dude hogging the microphone with his really weird moustache tells you "and this is Westminster..." you can't help but feel you would have been better off at home. It's not that there is anything fundamentally wrong with this tour, or my disgust that historic World War 2 boats have been turned into yellow tourist fodder - but simply, it just isn't really all that good or worthy of your money. Which brings me to my final point - which is certainly interesting. It turns out that these little yellow boat things are actually converted vehicles from the 1940's that were used during World War 2. In fact, it's entirely possible that this yellow thing that is showing you around London was a part of the D-Day invasions on Normandy. As someone who World War 2 is very important to; I would much rather see these in museums in their original state than painted yellow and showing tourists around; but that's just personal opinion.

The reservation was set day's prior, so we arrived early in the day and had the freedom to ride to various attrractions and exit the bus at places that we wanted to visit specifically. The bus was never overly crowded as there were many buses on the road at any given time. It was great. The earphones were provided at the beginning of the trip. They were only for listening to tour information. This is the first time that I chose to do the touristy thing in London, but it was definitely a memorable experience. I got to see and visit all of the popular tourist attractions. I don't think we missed anything within all areas of Central London. Though it is not necessary at this point, it is something that I would consider doing again.

We were really excited to then go on a speedboat instead, but it all went wrong. They first off all provided us with the wrong pier, and due to us having travel issues beforehand; we were already stretched on time. However, relocating to the apparent correct pier meant that we completely missed out on our boat. Furthermore, there is no effort to actually refund or support anyone that missed their boat due to external issues. They have absolutely refused to refund my ticket; one I got through a 3rd party. If you miss your boat due to external factors, this company will not help you at all or offer you a reasonable other ride. They also spoke of how a bunch of boats were fully booked, and yet when we were in the area, my girlfriend and I noticed multiple boats that had empty seats. That gave me major red flags. It is quite the risk to get tickets for this experience; I advise caution. I am devastated and appalled as well as frustrated. Complete lack of time, effort and money as we had to travel further into London for it.
