    Good service and a nice meal which catered for gluten free. Would have been better to have the bright cabin lights dimmed to make it easier to see out during the meal. View from open top deck was fab but watch out for the twirling influencers :) Entertainment was enjoyable.

    We enjoyed the opening ceremony and early access to the Jewels. The Beefeater was very entertaining and informative, we loved the pomp and circumstance of the opening ceremony. Our guide was very informative and answered all our questions. Be aware while the tour itself is about 4 hours, you can easily spend an entire day at the Tower of London. This is a must do tour when visiting London.

    A great way of seeing and getting information about the outstanding landmarks in London particularly if you want to see more in less time. You also have a chance to get amazing photos of the city and the Tower Bridge along tge way. Greenwich is a remarkable town worth visiting. The Royal Observatory, The Maritime Museum, Cutty Sark shouldn't be a miss.

    Good time, but wish we had done a cruise without the afternoon tea. The food was just okay. Tea was fine. Coffee option was very burnt. We could smell it before the waiter put it on the table.

    One of the best ways to see London! I booked this as a 40th birthday present for husband and we both thoroughly enjoyed the experience. When we return to London we will definitely be rebooking & big thanks to Edward our tour guide who knew lots of info about the landmarks and thanks to John the skipper who was brilliant!

    Wonderful evening. Great date night and our host was quite nice and knowledgable about Oxford and the area. A perfect way to spend some time on the river and to then enjoy a delicious dinner. Recommend.

    So we added this as an extra to our hop in hop off bus tour and it was fantastic! Gives a different perspective of the city from the water and our guide who gave us the commentary.. David was interactive, enthusiastic and gave a few jokes which made it light hearted and entertaining. You can grab a wine, beer or a coffee in the kiosk on the lower level and watch it all go by! Brilliant experience

    Wonderful experience. Food service impeccable. Can’t fault. Chicken lunch was gorgeous and a great size portion. Dessert came out with happy birthday messages which was a lovely surprise

    I have only had 1 vintage bus tour on 13/09/23, and paid for it on 04/08/23. However I appear to have paid again on 12/09/23. Please refund the second payment.

    Our early access tour of the Tower of London through Urban Saunters with Nathan as our guide was really terrific. Nathan clearly had a deep understanding of the many aspects of royals history. He definitely seems to enjoy it. We had true early access to the opening ceremony for the tower gates with a behind the scenes tutorial from one of the Beefeaters. Following the opening of the gates our group was one of the first to be able to enter the museum to see the Crown Jewels. The trip was enlightening and very educational and so fascinating. We would recommend this tour and highly recommend Nathan.

    This was advertised as hop on hop off tour with 4 piers. The cruise only stopped at 2. They should give you highlights to see and eat along the way if this is truly a hop on tour. Not sure why we only stop at Westminster and Tower Bridge. The tour guides were hilarious, they made the trip memorable. For the price of 60 for a couple, I feel like it is overpriced. Just do the Uber boat for much cheaper price to see the sights. You're welcome.

    One of our party was in a wheelchair so without the help of the teams involved we would not have been able to enjoy both of these experience. Thank you the team on the eye for ensuring the safety of the young lady and also to the skipper and team responsible for the cruise. They all went that extra mile, so thank you

    Excellent staff. A great boat ride - informative and exhilarating all at once. Found out loads of info about London that I didn’t know and great to see the city from a different perspective. I highly recommend it

    Nice short 30-minute no nonsense tour. Commentator very knowledgeable and funny (dry/droll sense of humour) … kept it real.
