Thames Barrier Rocket Speed Boat Ride for Two
About this experience
This speed enhanced tour of the River Thames allows you to share something different. You’ll take a journey through the city at up to 30knots as the Thames is beaten up by the 880hp of engine on your RIB. This energetic tour zooms through the river amidst one of the greatest open air history museums in the world.
Your guides won’t quit with the intelligent banter and you’ll be taken past London Bridge, Canary Wharf, Greenwich, the O2 and on through the Thames Barrier. This tour differs to the run of the mill lot as the two of you may just get to experience, if the guides are up to showing off on the day, a few exciting boat manoeuvres as the Thames widens further up the river.
