Uber Boat by Thames Clippers

Uber Boat by Thames Clippers are the fastest and most frequent fleet on the river, easily linking you to the top attractions in London so you can be sure to experience all that London has to offer!

Travelling by river gives you a unique perspective of London with spectacular views of:

• Westminster: Shopping, theatre and a little bit of culture, Westminster has it all. Home to many of London’s most famous attractions such as Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, National Portrait Gallery and of course, Westminster Abbey, to name a few.

Europe’s tallest observation wheel lets you take in breathtaking views of London in a capsule which moves so slowly, you have plenty of time to take that perfect shot for the memory books. It also happens to be close to the London Aquarium and The London Dungeon.

• Embankment: Open to the public since 1868, the Embankment, or Victorian Embankment, runs on the north side of the River Thames, from the Palace of Westminster to Blackfriars Bridge. A hub for street entertainers and pop up cafes, there is always something going on on the Embankment.

Learn about the fate of the Princes in the Tower and see Henry VIII’s armour, you can even see the magnificence and majestic crown jewels!
