Brilliant service from everyone. Paddy provided a fantastic team for security and Ana was a joy to work with throughout the lead up to the event. I am looking forward to booking again, thank you Captain for a safe and enjoyable tour!

Can’t thank these guys enough. They did our wedding transport from Cadogan Pier to Westminster Boating Base and their service was exceptional. Staff were friendly, professional and welcoming. They even served our wedding fizz of choice, even though BBR aren’t on their usual supplier list. Really good value; coaches would have been a similar price and way less fun and way less rock n roll! Many guest compliments have been received over the boat and many happy memories. Highly recommended

I must say really amazing 👏 thank you for such a wonderful experience. It was rainy weather and I did get wet from it but once I was on board ship 🚢 the warm welcome aboard and the service with a smile made the whole experience delightful. 2 floors of indoor protection from the weather with amazing views of London at night the bridges all a glow amazing 👏
I am looking forward to our next adventure 😀 Thank you 💖

Went on a boat party with Thames Party Boats and it was fantastic! The boat is spacious, with multiple levels and areas to hang out or host different styles of events. The crew are friendly and the bar was super efficient. The best part is obviously the views of London from the Thames! Great vibes all around.
