Thames Rockets Speed Boat Ride for Two

About this experience
If you are looking for something different to do together whilst in the big city, then this Thames Rockets Speed Boat Ride for Two may just be it. An exciting, fast-paced and unique way to experience the capital away from the hoards of other tourists, you’ll skim across the surface of the River Thames, taking in the sights, sounds and stories that this waterway has to offer whilst enjoying the ride.
Aboard this purpose built Rigid Inflatable Boat (and the Visit England’s ‘Family Friendly Attraction of the Year’ for 2017/18), you’ll have the pleasure of an experienced guide, giving you nuggets of information along the way as you pass famous landmarks such as The London Eye and Tower Bridge. But this isn’t a gentle meander across the Thames, the RIB is capable of 30 knots and you will feel the buzz as the boat speeds through the water in this adrenaline-packed sightseeing tour. Make your day out in London one to remember.

“Fantastic experience! ”
Great time on the Thames Rocket. Commentator was do professional and very funny. One of my 65th birthday treats.
“Not to be missed”
Excellent experience from booking to end. So easy to book over the telephone and no question too much trouble. Confirmation e.mail arrived as promised. Met on arrival by Rod who was very friendly. Helped everyone put on their life jackets - which, at our age, was entertaining!!. Our driver was Roddy, also very friendly. We had entertaining commentary and a fantastic ride up the Thames. Would we do it again - definitely. Do we recommend it - absolutely. Thank you to Rod & Roddy.
