The Experience
Enjoy a high-speed journey along the River Thames aboard the largest speedboat operating on the river.
Your experience begins at Tower Millennium Pier, where you'll board the vessel and receive a short introduction from the crew. The trip starts with a brief guided commentary as you travel past some of London's best-known riverside landmarks.
Once the sightseeing section is complete, the focus shifts to the ride itself. Powered by two Rolls-Royce jet engines, the boat accelerates along the Thames towards Greenwich. Along the way, you'll pass the O2 Arena and continue towards the Thames Flood Barrier while taking in views of the city from a unique perspective.
The boat is equipped with an onboard sound system featuring a soundtrack inspired by classic action films, adding to the atmosphere throughout the journey. The combination of speed and open-air views makes this a memorable way to experience London from the water.
The experience lasts approximately 40 minutes, including a short guided introduction and an extended high-speed section. Trips operate throughout the year, allowing visitors and locals alike to enjoy the Thames in a different way.
Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or looking for a memorable activity in London, this river adventure offers a distinctive experience on one of the city's most famous waterways.
