Thames Lates

Set sail from the London Eye Millennium Pier on an early evening trip that first takes in the waters around the Houses of Parliament and the stretch down towards Tower Bridge. Once you've got past the section of the Thames that has speed restrictions in place (your guide will use this time to pepper your brain with facts about the capital), it's on to the full throttle fun. Twin 630hp engines kick in past the iconic bridge, along with screams of delight as the boat's skipper twists and turns his passengers and a summer soundtrack blares out across the water. Cocktails served in red cups are dished out on the cruise back to the pier, hopefully complimented by a Waterloo sunset.
