About Venue

Boats for hire on the Thames. We have many boats to suit your event. From smaller boats for just a few people to our larger boats that can hold up to 300 guests. Come celebrate your birthday, wedding, corporate events or tailor made package with us.

These boats are the ideal transfer vessels. Modern, comfortable, and reasonably fast. Useful for when you need to get your guests from one point in London to a venue close to the river.

Whilst licenced to carry 395 guests, this does include the outside spaces and as London's weather is not predictable, we would recommend 200 guests for a private hire.

The City Alpha and Gamma are often referred to as a 'glass boat' die to their large panoramic windows. Both boats have 2 bars, and wheelchair accessibility, along with state of the art audio and visual equipment and TV screens.

Lovely cruise down to Greenwich. Great live commentary, really useful full of facts, but also funny. Weather was lovely which also helped.

We LOVED using these boats in London. This was our preferred mode of transportation. The lines moved pretty quickly, it just depends on how early you make it there. And how late in the day it is (sometimes they would be behind schedule and have to leave early) The only negative was that the experience varied every time. Sometimes there would be a tour, and sometimes not. Overall would recommend, though. A great way to see the city.

City Cruises was a great experience! The trip itself gave us beautiful views along the river, but what really stood out was the presenter. With funny twists, a bit of irony, and just the right amount of humor, the commentary made the ride both entertaining and memorable. We had a lot of fun and would happily do it again.
