London river cruise with afternoon tea or two-course dinner

-What you can expect-
Some experiences are unmistakably British – think afternoon tea, iconic riverside views of Big Ben and memorable moments on the water. This Thames cruise serves it all up in style. Choose a classic English afternoon tea on a 90-minute cruise as London's famous landmarks drift by, or settle in for a sumptuous three-hour evening dinner cruise with live music and the city sparkling beyond the windows. As Jenny, one of our local guides, says, " Anyone can tick off London's landmarks. Seeing them from the river over afternoon tea or dinner is a whole different experience."

If you go for the afternoon tea cruise option, you can expect a spread of sandwiches filled with classics like ham and Dijon mustard, warm scones, sweet treats like lemon tart and banoffee pie, and as much tea or coffee as you fancy. It’s a laidback afternoon that’s perfect for catching up while London quietly slides by. Prefer to meander down the river in the evening? Our Thames dinner cruise has you covered. You’ll have two courses, with the main inspired by English favourites, plus a dessert, soft live music and views of London’s iconic landmarks.

Whichever cruise you pick, the city does the showing off. You’ll see Tower Bridge rising ahead of you, the South Bank stretching out along the water and Big Ben standing tall over the river as you pass. It’s your go-to for birthdays, date nights, catch‑ups or those times when you just want a special day or evening out in the city. And, with drinks available to buy on board, you can raise a glass, or two, to seeing a side of London you only really get from the water.
