Before You Die Powerboating On The River Thames |
Location: London Price £45 Brought to you by RedLetterDays |
See The Sights of London From The Thames Aboard A Powerboat! See the sights of London in style from a powerboat ride along the Thames! The best way to see London is from the Thames, but if the tourist cruisers are too tame for you, leave them bobbing in your wake as you zoom past in a high-speed powerboat! After a safety briefing, you'll board your custom-built Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB). Heading upstream from the London Eye, you'll see the Houses of Parliament before racing back down to Tower Bridge and Canary Wharf, with unrivalled views of the Tate Modern, St Paul's Cathedral and the Tower of London along the way. ![]() Your experienced skipper knows lots of stories about the layers of history that have built up along the river, and you'll be pulling up sharply to learn some of the history behind the landmarks. In facvt you'lñl be a tourist attraction yourself, entertaining the crowds as you whisk around in 360-degree spins. Your skipper can tell you all about London's darker past too: the bolt holes that tell tales of the criminals chained up to drown at high tide, and the Watergate dungeon entrance, known for over 300 years as Traitors Gate, which beckons menacingly! AVAILABILITY The powerboat operates seven days a week during the summer season (March to October) and Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays only for the remainder of the year (closed over the Christmas period). DURATION Lasts up to one hour and 15 minutes, including your briefing, kit issue and around 50 minutes on the water. Please arrive up to 15 minutes prior to your booked time. In season runs daily, on the hour between 11am and 4pm. After September, at weekends only.
