  • London Waterways
    London Waterways The river Thames reflects London's diversity, from peaceful countryside to an urban vibe. The city is also awash with charming canals and waterways that are perfect for exploring. The Thames flows through Central London and provides a stunning backdrop to many of the city's top tourist attractions. The 2,000-year-old river harbours much of London's history, as well as providing ongoing inspiration for artists, musicians and writers. Explore the River by Boat Jumping aboard one of the many boats that operate along the river is one of the best ways of exploring the Thames and the city. There are a variety of river tours available to suit all tastes, including sightseeing trips with commentaries, themed cruises and dining experiences. City Cruises offers a wide range of cruises and experiences leaving every 30 minutes every day, as well as private hire for groups and experiences including afternoon tea cruises and Thames Jazz. If you are looking for gorgeous views plus delicious food, a river dining experience might be your thing. Bateaux London runs scheduled dining cruises on the Thames all year round, offering fresh food, live entertainment and spectacular London city sights. Discovery Richmond For the history fans, Discovery Richmond has announced a new programme of river tours in the beautiful Borough of Richmond. Take a river-linked sightseeing tour combining shorter guided walks with a river cruise along the greenest and most picturesque stretches of the Thames in London. Start with a guided stroll around Richmond, then take the boat to magnificent Hampton Court Palace or the historic Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames.
