Thames RIB Experience

Fantastic and exciting way to see some of the major sites. Great for young and old.
If it is cold dress warmly and wear gloves to hang onto the grab rails.
Staff great and an amusing gide too. I would recommend taking the longer trip to the Thames barrier even though it costs more.
Our party ranged from 9 to 65 and we all have great memories of the trip. I have lived in London for 40 years and only just discovered it and it beats a staid old river cruise hands down.

A great way to see London, a fantastic thrill and the staff were excellent! i would thoroughly recommend this!! (i'm a Londoner too!!!)

It was little above zero degrees. It was windy. One of our group even turned up witha chest infection.
None of this detracted from the experience that is not to be missed!
We were bought the ride as a gift and booked a group of 6. The staff on the pier were helpful, the safety brief wasn't tedious and we set off on time. A group turned up ten minutes late and they even went back to pier to pick them up. Adding possible 2 minutes to out day but ensuring that good customer service was upheld.
The brief tour up the Thames was very informative and very fun. The guides had good knowledge of the history of the buildings and London.
And then they opened the throttle..... If you want to know how much fun was you'll have to book - you will not be disappointed!!

This was such great fun. I would reccomend it to everyone. Worth every penny. I took my five year old and it worked for both his age and mine. Fantastic!!!!

This is a fantastic way to see London and the Thames Barrier (the extra money for the extra time to go down that far is well worth it) in a way you have not seen it before. I did a normal cruise down to Greenwich and back recently and, although better for taking photos, this was SO much better as an Experience – and my friend’s photos were not bad at all.. It was a very cold but dry day and we were well kitted out with jacket/hoods and over trousers, though I would recommend wearing thermal longjohns and decent gloves to be really cosy. Loved the James Bond bit and enjoyed the fun and informative commentary. Well managed and good safety drill. Suitable for all ages. Thrills an no spills and a lot of laughs with coffee bars nearby to fall into afterwards if the weather is cold! There was a bit of problem with the individual photos taken by the crew member which couldn’t be transferred to the computer because of a missing lead but we were all rewarded with a free copy (normally £10) of a photo of us all in the boat so we were not complaining at all!

An absolute "Must Do" !!!

I bought this for my partner & friend. I have never seen a 34 and 49 year old man so excited about their experience on a boat trip they were like to BIG kids. They talked about it all evening and they are now organising another trip for the rest of the family.
Definately a good buy on my behalf.

Went with 36 16-17 year olds from Holland with TRE beginning of Oct. It was a great surprise and they had a terrific time, no exceptions. Staff were kind and clear, can surely recommend it to anyone. Next year we'll definitely be back again with a new group from Veluws College in Apeldoorn.

As a Londoner you tend sometimes to over look some of the attractions but this is one you shouldn't miss. Flying up the Thames with James Bond theme music playing and on top of that some interesting London facts that I didn't know myself. I booked this trip as a Birthday party for my son and his friends and can honestly say I have never seen such big smiles by the time we got off. On of the boys even said 'I don't think I will sleep tonight' as we was so excited. The crew were great and we picked up a couple a great photo's to boot!

What a top notch customer service group. I was looking for something different to do with my 8 year old son and this did not disappoint. The staff went above and beyond to assist us with our reservations and made our experience a talked about highlight of our holiday.

Brilliant fun for all the family

Brilliant . Especially when he tips the boat ! Alexandra age 9 :-)

Our boat ride formed part of a stag day/night and it was a truly exhilarating event. Seeing London from such a unique perspective was the highlight of the day - all 16 of us loved it!

I would like to say we had a wonderful journey to the . The trip was a birthday present for my Husband's 65th, a unique and fun way to see the Thames especially when RIB picked up speed to be recomended.

On a sunny Sunday afternoon we strolled down the pier at Embankment to be met by the lady who treated us like we were members of the family, very thorough and safety conscious, we then had a great hour on the river, very exciting after going through Tower Bridge and then some Crazy Ivans around Canary Wharf.

Thank you for a great time, TRE.

I booked this experience for my son on Christmas morning via their website. I then received an email to say they would not be running on Christmas day and my booking was cancelled. Good job I checked my emails, they said they had tried to contact me by phone but I conveniently did not have any missed calls. There was no apologies for the cancellation I was just told their system had experienced an error. This error appeared to be my problem! Terrible service, glad it got cancelled if this is how they treat their customers!

On behalf of my family I would like to thankyou for a wondeful experience
todday. The commentary was first class with a smattering of humour. The
speed and versatility of the boat was exhilarating and we covered an amazing
number of premier london sites from a unique position. A memorable
experience, which I would recommend to anyone who wants to combine sight
seeing and eye watering speed. It is an absolute must for those who only
have a limited amount of time to see historic, present and industrial
london.

Thanks Thames Rib, had the wildest time, great fun. Theme Parks, eat your heart out !
