Thames Cruise from Westminster to Tower Bridge
Cruise Details
Fancy seeing the very best of London from the water? This unforgettable cruise along the Thames gives you the chance to admire the capital’s most famous sights like never before. All aboard!
Once on board, the boat will set off down the River Thames towards Tower Bridge. Over the course of the 40-minute journey, you’ll be treated to stunning panoramic views of London’s most celebrated monuments.
From your seat, you’ll spot the Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, the London Eye and St Paul’s Cathedral – perfect photo opportunities at every turn! And with live commentary, you’ll also learn fun facts and fascinating stories about landmarks like The Shard and Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre.
As the cruise draws to a close, you’ll slowly approach the majestic Tower Bridge – a Victorian-era bascule bridge that was a true engineering marvel of its time, linking both sides of the Thames.
The journey ends at Tower Bridge Pier.
