What It Is

  • Afternoon tea is such a traditional British past time with small sandwiches, scones with jam and clotted cream, and teacakes served up mid-afternoon, all washed down with lashings of tea! Thanks to this sightseeing cruise you no longer have to look at 4 walls whilst enjoying the past time - See London pass by as you float down the river Thames on a boat with full-length glass windows offering a panoramic view and open deck.

Your Experience With Thames River Sightseeing Cruise with Afternoon Tea

  • Board the vessel and instantly feel welcomed onboard thanks to the friendly staff who are waiting to greet you.
  • Settle down at your table as you prepare to embark on a 90 minute cruise of the River Thames. As you're served afternoon tea you can enjoy watching Big Ben, The Shard, The London Eye, The Globe Theatre, St Paul's Cathedral, The Tower Of London, Tower Bridge and so much more pass the window. You can get up and go and stand on deck when you feel the need to stretch your legs before settling back down to devour the delicious cakes!
  • You can purchase a glass of champagne from the onboard bar if you want to add some extra fizz to the afternoon!
  • The round-trip cruise leaves you back at the departure pier at approximately 4.45pm having enjoyed a thoroughly sophisticated and relaxing afternoon on the water.
