The ship and crew, very good. The commentary, very funny. But due to a problem we had to board at a different pier and could have been warned before by mail or by the app. The tour was shorter than planned.

Really enjoyed our 2 hour cruise from Westminster to Greenwich and back. Excellent commentary on the boat. Amusing and informative . Tickets reasonably priced as was the jug of pimms we had. Recommended.

The cruise was in one word great: the route, the views, the lovely weather and the bartender who accepted my euro notes since the card machine was broken. What really made our day was the commentary full of information and humour from the crew members.
