The staff was nice and friendly, I was late a bit because of the traffic but when I explained to them they understand, I enjoyed the 45min journey and see the bridge and London eye.

It was a nice trip, we saw a lot. Audio guide could have been better. Blankets on the benches would be appropriate at this time of year. Otherwise gladly again.

It was very nice to see London from a different perspective by the Thames River. I recommend the London Sightseeing Cruise from Westminster to Greenwich aboard the Thames River Cruiser.

Much better than expected, it wasn't just a cruise, we got the whole story on notorious sights along the cruise. Highly recommend. The only fall back was the cruise was delayed.
