Thames Sightseeing Cruise from Westminster to Greenwich

Glide along London’s lifeline on a leisurely cruise from Westminster to Greenwich, where history and skyline merge in perfect harmony. Drift past iconic landmarks like the Houses of Parliament and St. Paul’s Cathedral, then step ashore to uncover royal secrets, maritime legends, and riverside charm. Whether you’re soaking in the views from the deck or exploring hidden gems along the way, this journey turns sightseeing into storytelling.

Tour Overview

Picture this: a gentle breeze off the Thames, the hum of the city fading into the rhythm of the waves. Your cruise begins in the heart of London, where centuries of history line the banks. As the skyline shifts from parliamentary grandeur to Greenwich’s maritime soul, you’ll pass under bridges that have witnessed coronations, wars, and everyday triumphs. It’s not just a boat ride—it’s a love letter to London, best enjoyed with a camera in one hand and a cup of tea in the other.

Unveiling the Tower of London

Step into a fortress where kings and queens once walked—and where ravens still rule the roost. The Tower’s stone walls whisper tales of intrigue, from the dazzling Crown Jewels to the tragic fate of Anne Boleyn. Don’t miss the Yeoman Warders (or "Beefeaters")—their dark humor and centuries-old stories make history feel alive.
Pro tip: Look for the "Traitor’s Gate," where prisoners arrived by boat… just like you!

Unveiling Tower Bridge

London’s most photogenic bridge isn’t just a pretty face—it’s a Victorian engineering marvel. Watch the bascules lift for passing ships (check the schedule!), then stroll the glass-floored walkways for a thrilling view of the Thames below. At sunset, the bridge glows like a postcard, its twin towers framing the city’s skyline in gold.
Fun fact: It was once painted chocolate brown—thankfully, that phase didn’t last!

Exploring the Cutty Sark

Meet the fastest tea clipper of the 19th century, now dry-docked in Greenwich like a seafaring time capsule. Climb aboard to touch the gleaming copper hull, stand beneath the towering masts, and hear tales of storm-chasing captains racing to deliver tea (and sometimes opium) from China. Below deck, the scent of aged wood and salt lingers—a reminder of the adventures this ship survived.
Bonus: The nearby Greenwich Market is perfect for a post-visit snack!

Memorable Moments

• The golden hour over the Thames, when Big Ben’s chimes echo across the water and the city turns to amber.
• Laughter with fellow travelers as you spot the "London Eye" peeking between bridges like a playful secret.
• Standing on the Prime Meridian Line in Greenwich, one foot in the east, one in the west—literally straddling time zones.
• The quiet thrill of spotting a seal or heron gliding alongside the boat, a wild contrast to the urban landscape.
