Thames River Services 

The best way to explore London is by River and with over 50 years experience, Thames River Services provide an excellent all year round service, with boats regularly leaving from Westminster Pier and London to Greenwich Pier via The Tower of London and The Thames Barrier.

As you cruise along the River Thames, you can take in all the passing historic and modern places of interest around Greenwich. Passengers can now sail past the Millennium Dome, through the Meridian Line and the Thames Barrier, on certain vessels from March to November.

Some of the main attractions you will see en route include: Houses of Parliament, London Eye, Cleopatra's Needle, South Bank, St Paul's Cathedral, Tate Modern, HMS Belfast and Tower of London, to name just a few. A cruise map, listing all the attractions en route, is available on the Thames Services website link below.

A fleet of six vessels will take you up and down the river, fitted with a family saloon and bar facilities and open decks, enabling you to get the best photo opportunities. Sightseeing tours can be arranged for groups, families and individuals and FREE entrance to the National Maritime Museum and the Royal Observatory is included in the price.
